This film is an extremely entertaining psychological thriller with Carrol Baker excellent as a rich American widow getting away from it all at a secluded Italian villa. Enter smart aleck down on his luck playboy, Lou Castel, who has some golddigging motives behind his slick hipster seduction techniques and has no qualms about how he gets what he wants. He encourages Baker's character's incipient alcoholism and dubious self-esteem, brings in his supposed 'sister' to help drag Baker even further into a maze of sick mind games, drug addiction and group sex, all culminating in a descent into near-madness and self-destructive depravity.
I won't give away anymore, suffice to say that the film delivers on its swinging sixties, Euro sleaze ambience and psychological suspense thriller credentials in spades. Director Umberto Lenzi's work has been, at best, uneven and he's churned out his share of crap. However, he made some quite good giallos and crime pictures in the sixties and seventies and this is one of them (other good films by Lenzi -- SPASMO, SEVEN BLOODSTAINED ORCHIDS, ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON, to name only a few).
Unfortunately this film is ofen confused with another okay but not-quite-as-good Lenzi film that was also released briefly here in America under the same PARANOIA title (but is more commonly known, especially on video, as A QUIET PLACE TO KILL).
结尾太淡了，男生的成长经历有曲折，但共情的的部分不够，对美国阶级分层的刻画也止于表面。爹型大本还是很性感的，比他年轻时鞋巴子脸顺眼多了。
Only need to prove to yourself, with something back you up...
缺点是不smooth 优点是审美在 画面的颜色处理 服装有品 音乐也复古 各类角色演员都选的贴切 Tye演技真棒的 大本和角色浑然一体了 又喜欢他一点了哈哈 这些都盖过了明显的缺点 所以四星

叔叔真棒，自学成才，小侄子成长道路上的永远的导师。
节奏迷惑。但是宇植和赵震雄那种莫名的父子感还挺有意思的。
看完蛮感动的。以后也要开一个全是书籍的bar！
也就是五分水平，前半截以为是无间道，后半截就是传统警匪片，拍的太套路了，也就是赵震雄能把这么弱的剧本角色演好。后半段的boss既不厉害也不聪明，全片也没有感觉出来哪里有推理感觉，都是直接就递消息了。至于延南会、三代警察这些，感觉刚刚喂到嘴边就撤了，不知道是字幕原因还是啥，完全没看懂这个组织到底怎么了。反正就是不太行。
赵震雄演技佳，崔宇植演技佳，朴熙顺演技也佳，全员演技都在线。但是，就是觉得剧情不紧凑吸引力不强怎么回事？
其实还挺好看的 要不是有大叔在的话 到底是好人还是坏人 真真假假 最后是坏人里的好人 抓到贩毒人员又安全脱壳
寓意有意思，不是非黑即白，而是灰色地带，用小恶制止大恶，也就是以恶制恶。几个演员演出很好。不过剧情线一开始看有点乱，需要很耐心去看。这方面导演完全可以慢慢拍，想搞反转之前，正线叙事要更清楚才好。
冲着赵震雄来看的，实在太差。整个故事都太假，稚嫩的崔宇植也完全撑不起角色，实在忍不了快进看完

但也不至于看不进去。

原本是很有潜力的故事，结果中段太拖…直接 lost me. 也可能是最近这一年罪案片看得太多了，现在如果故事不是十分出众基本上都提不起我什么兴趣，很容易就走神。小崔穿西装真的还好。肩窄的孩子撑不起西装。
乔治克鲁尼的叙事风格，很年轻也很美，柔情似水。
居然是乔治克鲁尼导演的，他为什么不继续做演员？
程序正义还是结果争议，这世上哪有什么绝对正义，最终不过是价值的选择……
