This early 70's giallo by Umberto Lenzi is certainly among the best in his filmography and also in the whole genre. Personally I think Lenzi's best films are the funny cartoon-turned-film Kriminal, the stylish giallo Seven Blood-Stained Orchids, the explosive Napoli violenta and this. In the eighties he did plenty of film trash in form of Eaten Alive, Hitcher in the Dark or Black Demons, all of which are ripping something off and/or very dull and slow moving. Knife of Ice came when the giallo boom was at its hottest and the result is convincing.
Technically the film is superb, containing great cinematography in the beginning when we learn about the main character's trauma towards trains. From this point on, Lenzi shows us his ability to benefit the widescreen and, for example, the bicycle ride near the forest is genuinely beautiful! This scene also shows Lenzi's ability to build suspense, very slowly but meaningfully. After all, there aren't so many murders in the whole film, only the suspense circulating around the murderer's identity.
One suspect is a devil worshipper which brings new aspects to the mystery. Since the final scene takes place in a church, one can wonder if Lenzi wanted to comment on something, maybe the hypocritical morale of church and superstition. The main character (Carrol Baker) is mute which demands a lot from her face and eyes. The actress works very well, giving us a believable performance circulating around the emotions of fear and mental pain. The other actors are good, too. The finally, however, may not give too positive a sight about female sex since they all are expressed rather negatively in the film, one way or another. Still this is easily among the most noteworthy in the genre, not as bloody as the Argento films, for example, but equally suspenseful and visually also interesting.
人物众多却又无法展开。说到底还不是因为瓷器梦美丽易破碎。这个故事哪里有奇迹？不过是底层人民的自救罢了。
故事编得还不错，结尾可以截掉。当同事说这是深圳宣传片时，我说当前上海疫情才是深圳宣传片。【疫情期间驻校观影活动之二】
有一点在意，易烊千玺的台词，是为了表现他因穷困的瘦弱无力吗，有些地方听着太小声没有力量感。不过他声音真的好苏啊，哄妹妹的时候我都在想他可能过两年就能演单亲爸爸了哈哈哈。
最后的happy end 就当作是那个时代和这个时代所有奋斗者的美梦吧，希望我也能成功
“人生是不是总是这么痛苦
“不是成功而是幸福”。喜欢兄妹线，以及养流浪狗的拳击手。细想剧本的走向还是经得起推敲的。
难以想象易烊千玺的大银幕形象如此多变，他看着还是个孩子呢，却能演出如父一般的男人样子。对待妹妹和朋友们都非常成熟可靠，最辛酸的是他在婚礼上喝醉后像个中年人又像个少年人，想回去读完大学，太虐了啊。
真的不错，有笑有泪，剧情诉说小人物的故事满分💯努力奋斗有好结果的💪💪
跟娃一起看，挺放心。也就是说，一个幼稚园小朋友喜欢的故事
2.5。看这片让我想起小时候听过的一个单口相声：一老中医临去世前留给儿子一个治疗浑身奇痒病症的祖传秘方，放在一个制作精美的大盒子里。一天真来了这么个病人，儿子于是打开大盒子，发现里面套了个中盒子，中盒子里套了个小盒子，小盒子里套了个微盒子，微盒子里放了个锦囊，儿子打开锦囊抽出一张纸条，上写俩字：挠挠。我就像这小中医看看纸条又看看四个盒子，满脑问号：So what's the point? 绕了半天圈子费这么大力气它就想说这个嘛？Point早就迷失在演员过度表演和人物内外反差强弱必须转换的陈词滥调里了。
导演对节奏的掌控能力依旧不俗，但是故事本身的冲突实在很单一，跟前作中那些复杂的伦理困境无法相比。
喜欢，是一部充满了烟火气息的电影。平凡尘埃里的小人物，只要敢拼，也能创造自己的奇迹。
加油，每一个普通的人啊。
结尾只是理想，现实是残酷的。这种小人物大多是悲剧收场。
其实整体剧情都能想到：成功前的一次次困难与意外，以及最后的成功。
很励志，能克服重重困难，赚钱治好妹妹对一个刚成年的孩子，真的是个奇迹。但每一个奇迹的背后都是无数的拼搏，不放弃，还有一点点运气。
故事很简单，但是很真实，演的就是奋斗中的你我他。
不想客观公允，我不管，就要给五星！为底层人被看见，被关心。虽然，美好的结局更像是编织的，可能的结局也许比揪心的过程更苦。四字看来真的是要当演员了，和其他的鲜肉渐远。配角们也好出彩，大眼睛小可爱，田雨一脸笑纹，章宇演啥像啥，还有那个追风少年太好笑了。
这里面有条“夺子”——“弑父”——“成人”的神话原型暗线：长年受制于父权阉割的男人，认为长于妇人之手的男孩缺乏阳刚之气，欺压母亲并且妄图夺走和改造男孩。男孩最后不动声色地干掉了“伪父”，完美地诠释了什么叫“以柔克刚”，从一个看似心慈手软的“伪娘”蜕变成了男人。
同时全片的类型片打法都很“韩国”，尤为明显是那场工厂打斗戏，但这也不是缺点，能把韩国类型片的打法消化运用至此，文牧野未来可期
