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.
方言之于一部城市主义的影片来说，只有魅力的加分，完全可忽略字幕的阻碍。敬佩导演的勇气和决心，敢于坚持“国产外语片”。对白很用心，没有烂梗、没有说教，是恰到好处的幽默感和生动自然的烟火气。记住了邵艺辉这位新人女导演/编剧，片中的几位新时代女性的人设立得落落大方，女性主义的表达方式也坦坦荡荡。演员都很到位，尤其要为周野芒和吴越爆灯。不追求爆笑，只求会心一笑。不是情绪大起大落的法官刺激，但在适当的时候还是会戳中你。不是光环加持的大人物神话，也不是处处碰壁的小人物笑话，是“我有一个朋友”那种普通但也值得与人说道的家常话。
如同影片拍摄外景地的房产中介广告里优先推荐的二手房租赁图文信息
看了预告，特意去刷了沪语对白的《爱情神话》，浓浓的烟火气，台词没有一句废话，很多小惊喜让人捧腹，“上海含屋”还是很有感染力的。推荐！希望能多拍这种使用本地方言对白，平平淡淡却又让人笑中带泪的好片子！如果说还什么可以更好的话，于我而言，画面应该要有一只上海腔调的猫。
摘自长评： “本片的宣传点之一是女性主义，但如果把这看成一个女权故事，那倪虹洁应该睡黄明昊啊，真的会有人在女权故事里想睡徐峥黄磊吗” 哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
上海、上海人就是电影里的样子吧？这是我走出电影院后，萦绕心脑的一个疑问。虽然这部电影名字叫《爱情神话》，我觉得不是说爱情，更像是在展现海派文化。既有江南的古典和雅致，又有国际大都市的现代与时尚。种族多元，认知多元。连修鞋的大叔都在喝咖啡说英语讲哲学。还有混血儿，不，外国人都在说沪语，简直是笑死。印象最深的是他们第一次偶遇聚会，对吃饭剩饭家猫野猫的讨论，太搞笑了。观影的过程大部分时间都在笑，那个小玛雅很出彩。直到最后才认出老乌，原来是林教头啊。
马伊琍人到中年孩子不大事业有成，结果还得挤在妈妈的老破小，开场先滚一轮床单，又跟徐峥来回过招，人设也挺让人迷糊的。
不谈主义与价值观，则前半部是好戏，后半部在凑合。但一部现实主义基调的作品，从人设到剧情却都不现实，何不架空现实呢，就跟现在吹捧上海防疫如何精准一样，片中的上海不知道加了多少层滤镜甚至意淫，确实是“神话”。再者，女导演创作、女演员主演、迎合女性观众的电影不等于女性主义电影，相反，本片男权意识根深蒂固，不提示的话我还以为是男导演拍的。
突然有点 get 到上海的好了，与其说是什么文化，倒不如说是长期的财富聚集带来的普遍的选择自由——不是说高端低端，也不是说每个人选择的情况多种多样，而是说可选择的余地很大所以想选确实可以随便选——因此似乎所有角色，甚至是鞋匠，都在生活，而不只是生存。经济基础决定上层建筑，文化都是物质积淀出来的。我相信50年后到我死的时候，在社会主义中国，各地的人都已经懂得了生活的自由，也都可以活得浪漫，像是神话。
人类需要在爱情中造神。老乌讲索菲亚罗兰那段提升了整部片子的质感。还蛮喜欢的，但是属于不会二刷的那种片。前面琐碎的点一层一层出的时候我就一直在想快给我什么时候给我一个更重的东西，我知道你轻巧明快举重若轻了，快给我一个更重的东西，后面长桌忆往昔的环节终于来了。从老乌开始讲话我一直哭到片子结束。配乐太多，点怪怪的。
都市小资文艺中年的爱情小打小闹，有群像，无大局，有嗨点，无高潮。演员用演技撑起了一些无聊的正反打镜头和对话。表达出了女性的独立和觉醒，男性的开明和窘境，但也夹杂了一些在理但不合时宜的观点输出。以至于个别内容有些突兀。配乐实在是一言难尽，根本不搭。整的像MV。
没有实质性的内容，无端端围绕一个男人团团转，这是爱情？我不晓得。俏皮话很多，但搞笑不等于幽默，这里面有智慧的差距，所以看到蛮多好评说导演拍片像伍迪.艾伦，我就觉得算了吧。前者是谈情说爱表面功夫，后者深入人的性情心理，质感完全不同，现在这电影更像是某集没头没尾的电视剧或小品，不过要是我也能碰到电影里不收房租还供伙食的房东，我也会说片子灵，我就是这么俗。是嘛，你们有钱有闲长得还那么好看当然灵咯。我还特别看了上海的友邻们的评价，两极分化，夸得基本是夸它全程用方言（我倒觉得这没啥难度）骂得则指出这根本不是上海，“都不知道这群人从哪里冒出来的。”另外：老乌感情爆发大讲索菲亚罗兰的那段戏最蹩脚；不喜欢导演在美术馆和片尾夹带的自作聪明的私货，所谓致敬费里尼的那点内容也很尴尬；没有爱情神话，连笑话都看不到。
更因为那段罗马往事的长篇独白，
1.费里尼：你礼貌吗你？用我的片名，还吐槽我的电影；2.生活气十足，各种拌嘴、嘴碎，这才是真实的人物；3.「离婚局」的针锋相对、老白老乌的吵架斗嘴、上海女人们的价值观等等，真的太有趣了。
如果这电影是男导演拍的，还会有今天这个景象么？想来也挺刻板的。
被索菲亚•罗兰睡了叫爱情神话，被吴亦凡睡了叫啥？
爱情的“神话”，如果仅仅是爱情开始那一段的新鲜劲儿和甜蜜，而不是爱情延续本身的困境，那恐怕不管拍什么年纪的人，都只是爱情的“空话”，不过也就像这部电影中的上海，是那种游客的新鲜劲儿和甜蜜的上海，不是真正的上海。但电影的问题就是，要用空话、新鲜劲儿和甜蜜，来否定和掩盖真正的东西。
很喜欢倪虹洁转身回到ktv的一次叹气，张牙舞爪的时候活得太正确了，那句叹气就像一个缺口，一个从正确步入真实的人生的缺口。
看了1/3才认出老乌是野芒老师，看到他大晚上骑车到一家名为“夜奔”的小店我简直要被这个梗笑死，大家都挺惦记野芒老师的林冲夜奔经典皮肤哈哈哈。
特别好，是《志明与春娇》的那种好。久违了，为这份惊喜，破例打个分表达一下。
冷艳动人的广告制片，为何对多才多艺的温柔大叔欲拒还迎?
