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.
真是太好了！结构扎实、细节充沛、动作华丽，情感动人又有现实关怀的纯纯原创动画（而且难得的干脆利索），看完能冲出去怒跑五公里（没有）、立马买二刷票的好！能代表中国冲奥斯卡最佳动画长片（拿个五佳提名没问题）的好！要是能和今年的院线纪录片《龙虎武师》同档期搭配食用效果一定很妙～（小细节：最后决战镜头扫到鞋蛮有意思，咸鱼队解放鞋+回力vs无极队鬼冢虎，另女阿娟穿的是匡威？；小建议：某几段BGM音量过高稍稍盖住对白声了，混音时能降点音量分出层次更好）能上粤语版还会支持，以及谢谢李白！
ps. 对于在80年代和90年代度过童年和少年的我们来说，这部电影里有太多的东西让我们露出时光倒流的微笑。
硬伤主要是台词设计，经常忽然飙出那些“气势万丈”的励志性语言是不自然的，包括其他舞狮队里的人的“恶”，都是有些违和的。直到男主父亲因为受伤突然回家，终于转向了一个更真实心酸的中国故事，那些在工厂工地里封闭着没有钟点干活的青少年，小时候是村里老人带的留守儿童，十几岁就要出去打工挣钱了，片中设定男主十八岁出门，实际上在两千零几年那个时间有很多未成年冒充成年进了工厂。最难得的就是这点吧，男主做了舞狮英雄，最终还是要进入残酷的现实社会，有好感的城里女生也不会因此和你一个打工仔在一起，只有美国动画才有那样“完美”的个人英雄主义，而这“不完美”的结局是属于中国自己的故事
粤味十足的国产原创佳作，已经被剧透还是深深感动，精气神魂皮兼备，可以看到岭南宗族社会文化在90年代末期阶层分化社会大流动时代中的变与不变，非常棒。这么好的作品要被拿来讨论那种无聊的话题简直亵渎，一句都不想讨论
走向尾声，少年雄狮与石佛相对，他终于明白，石佛不言，是要在日常的琐碎中开示，给天台的孤勇者一幕红日，给城市梦中的远行人一片鼓声。雄狮临青，立于楼宇阶级之下，闪转而上，又灼灼高贵。明日现实渺渺只在明日，此刻心潮，又何足与外人道也。不散@UME双井
度过童年期的国漫电影，进入青春叛逆期，燃点有，但必须要合理！
四星半。如果说对待国产动画，之前我们还处于种种原因沿用着和国际动画不同的评价标准，那么《雄狮少年》之后，这个标准可以统一了（也从侧面印证出周星驰在不同时代具有多么旺盛的生命力）。
点映，国漫年度惊喜之作，在借鉴周星驰电影的小人物底色的同时嫁接了对留守少年生活和心境的人文关怀，舞狮的胜利依然不能改变底层打工仔的命运，但是舞狮伴随的这种拼搏向上的精神却依然发光，鼓点不灭，雄狮不会消失，结尾的舞狮大赛真的太燃了，尤其是最后跃升擎天柱后的那段超现实处理，收的十分巧妙，没有刻意制造那种掌声和尖叫，因为雄狮也要归山。选歌实在是太好，乐夏专场加粤语金曲，再加上影片致敬的香港电影元素，足见主创诚意，整体非常推荐，剧本有些细节可以再稍微打磨下。（8.5/10）
前半段太春晚了，在电影院简直坐立难安。后半段突然情节立体了，故事真实了，人物丰富了……鼓点敲到心里去了。
05年，城中村，农民工，留守儿童，这些是能够直接决定作品高低的现实涉指，却被各种粗劣的戏仿和廉价的煽情冲散，居然出现了“有备而来”、“大意了没有闪”这种烂梗，毫无质感，尬吹这部动画的友邻们辜负了人和人之间的信任啊，居然说什么新高峰，高水准，对不起，烂透了！
中间泪点低的我哭了几次😂
感觉完全就是九连真人那首莫欺少年穷的电影版，表现出乡村少年的困顿现实和雄心壮志。
支持国产动画，慢慢来，能讲好故事是第一步。
一直偏好的水墨写意风，竟然在片头就惊现，对正片既有了期待也有一丝怀疑。当一只写实的猫跳到正片的脚踏车少年视角后，逐步被剧情牵动了，无论是场景还是配乐等细节，都透着浓郁的南粤之风，简单的嬉笑怒骂，泪流得稀里哗啦。即使反派的恶意有些脸谱化，贫困落后的窘境也许要退回几年才不觉浮夸，但终归是超出预期的燃呀！
剧情老套，台词太直给，但和留守儿童&农民工的现实链接、对舞狮传统文化的发扬都很让人惊喜，数次戳中泪点。
提两个瑕疵
听说广东仔眼睛都长这样...配合人教版教材做意识形态渗透？姓孙的，我祝你后代全长人教版数学书里那样
剧作特别顺拐，人物都是功能性没特点，笑点设置尴尬，高潮硬来很尬……唯一的优点是终于不是神话题材了（好像跟电影本身没啥关系）……
本来我还能勉强说服自己是画风独特，结果导演采访里直接“比例基本类似于真人，不完全一样，但非常接近。”给我整不会了。那就是设计水平跟其他高质量作品有差呗，还请多多努力。
带了一点期待去的，前半场观众笑得我有点自我怀疑，特别是旁边女孩子的声音完全入侵了我的观影体验，甚至想到雪崩的时候没有一片雪花是无辜的，所有让我对这部片子抱有期待走进电影院的人都有责任！不过没想到能在电影院听到有几年都没听过的九连真人
