Fernando Di Leo's "Milano Calibro 9" is an out-and-out masterpiece of Italian Crime cinema and, in my opinion, one of the most astonishing crime stories ever told. The first film in Di Leo's excellent 'Milieu' trilogy, "Milano Calibro 9" was followed by "La Mala Ordina" (aka. "Manhunt", also 1972) and the brilliant "Il Boss" (1973). The three films are not connected story-wise, but all three are excellent, and highly realistic portrayals of organized crime. As far as I am concerned "Manhunt" is (allthough excellent) slightly inferior to this one and "Il Boss" which both stand out as absolute all-time highlights of crime cinema. "Milano Calibro 9" is the best of them all, a film that is astonishing in all aspects, be it the ingenious plot that, apart from a compelling story and clever twists, includes social criticism, the performances, the gritty atmosphere and suspense or the brilliant score. I can hardly find the right words to express my admiration for this masterpiece which easily ranks among the greatest Gangster flicks ever brought to screen.
Gastone Moschin stars as Ugo Piazza, a tough and elliptical ex-convict who has just been released from prison. Immediately after his release, Ugo is approached by members of the Milan mob lead by the irascible gangster Rocco (Mario Adorf), as they suspect him to be responsible for the disappearance of a large sum of money belonging to their boss, an American (Lionel Stander) who controls the organized crime in Milan...
"Milano Calibro 9" is a film that delivers an astonishingly realistic mood of the underworld like hardly another. The intriguing storyline goes in hand with interesting characters, raw atmosphere, suspense and breathtaking action, social criticism and brutal violence. The film is simply stunning from the beginning to the end, which is even intensified by the brilliant score, a collaboration of the famous composer Luis Enríquez Bacalov and the Italian Progressive Rock band Osanna. Ugo Piazza must be one of the most charismatic gangster characters ever in cinema, and Gastone Moschin was the prefect choice for the role. Moschin delivers a brilliant performance, and the rest of the cast is also great. Mario Adorf is irascible like a rabid dog as the ferocious gangster Rocco, a role that fits him like a glove. The great Lionel Stander fits perfectly in his role of the American Mafia Don.
The two cop characters in the film are played by two of the greatest regulars of Italian genre-cinema, Luigi Pistilli and Frank Wolff (who committed suicide before the film was released). The ravishing Barbara Bouchet is astonishing and incredibly sexy in the role of Ugo Piazza's stripper girlfriend. Bouchet is both a stunning beauty and an excellent actress and this is doubtlessly one of her most memorable roles. This is also a political film and director Di Leo embedded a lot of social criticism about topics like corruption. This film simply has everything one can possibly desire in cinema. Films like "Milano Calibro 9" are the reason why I love cinema. This is an absolute masterpiece in all regards and, without exaggeration, one of the greatest Crime flicks ever made! The ingenious opening scene alone is more memorable than most films get in two hours.
没那么落俗套，有一些创新之处。可惜，不能说太多，要不然这部电影就没法儿看了
风格非常荒凉的电影，独处荒漠中守护黄金，还是独角戏部分最刺激。结局就是螳螂捕蝉黄雀在后，终究是没命享受这成果。
一单两命留雏妓，黄雀旋踵添血债。
一个杀手，还会突然无缘无故对一个女孩产生怜悯之心，一点转折点都没，也没描写内心深处的转变，难道杀了几十年人还没杀过小孩，那既然有原则，找他的人会不知道他这几十年不杀小孩，偏要找他多个麻烦。一个随便杀警察的人，会对小孩起怜悯之心，太可笑了。
情节简单 结尾突兀 人性贪婪 最终没有什么反转 也没有什么惊喜 几乎是一个人的独角戏
一直揪着心看到最后，两个人发现了那么大一块金子，我就知道肯定会有想独吞的，一个人在沙漠里守着那么多天真的太绝望了，最后一箭不知道是谁射的
连姆尼森再年轻几岁多好，虽然很符合剧中的角色，但是还是感觉有点拍不动了，连姆尼森救一切，这次是自我救赎。可能有些剧本比较烂，但是就是喜欢连姆尼森这该死的气质。
但是中间的闲话特别多
前边还好，最后一个警察能随便进豪宅搞职业杀手那套有点太扯。
美墨黑白有勾连，立案难于上天哉。
想看看玛莱娜22年时的容颜，却被连姆连森的廉颇老矣击中，各种心酸难耐。唉，俺也过40了哦。
人为财死之小菜鸟荒野拾金记~趁人之危加价杀狗如麻的一看就知道是坏人嘛，还敢让他知道有金子真不怕被灭口...=。=
一开始以为是西部片，原来是末日片。色调不错，诠释了人为财死鸟为食亡
还可以，杀手有心，英雄迟暮，想要正义却无法通过正常的手段达成，一切都难以尽如人意，整体气氛比较压抑和悲壮。其实剧情及节奏还算ok，但是大家习惯了动作片里连姆大叔乱杀，这类带悲剧色彩的电影就不是很能接受了。总体来说感觉还是不错的。
看到众多差评之后不抱希望地去看，反而觉得很贴合当下。全片透露着一句话：f**k justice.
两分给连姆尼森。70岁了还不能好好退休，还在演杀手刺客。真是好敬业。他是我一直都很喜欢的演员，沉着冷静，没有花拳绣腿，却有硬汉一样的身躯。虽然剧情比较老套，但是看到坏人诛杀殆尽还是比较痛快的！证据有时无法改变结果，法律有时也无法制裁。只有心中的正义可以。虽然他杀了无数人，但是他不杀未成年人，这是他心中的“道德底线”，而且为此他付出了自己的生命。70岁的连姆尼森依然英俊儒雅。
也就那样吧，普普通通，最后面一刀出乎意料，很解恨！
别惹连姆·尼森系列，不过也有些英雄迟暮了。
营救宇宙又一部，记忆营救？
法律在金钱面前举步难行，不得不有人站出来扫除障碍，黑亦白时，白亦黑！
