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.
类似希区柯克《夺魂索》式密闭空间悬疑片，只有西服店一个场景，整体总共应该有三次大反转，小反转很多。又有点像黑泽明《用心棒》，义士用言语来挑拨邪恶势力自相残杀。不过最后那个反转实在流俗，隐世高手什么的就很俗，像柯南伯格《暴力史》的后转。
這裁縫看得人太舒適了，好厲害的一個人擺到了全部敌人，十分優雅的 English
嘴巴子战神，阿西吧王者马东锡已上线，喜剧成分比第一部多 但是打斗场景很过瘾 新的反派boss依旧残暴 但是和第一部的哈尔滨张谦蛋比还是差点 在嘴巴子战神的面前力量还是显而易见 一🦶直接踹飞 马东锡简直是超级赛亚人的存在 不知道个延边战神哪个战斗力更强
剧情还不错，但节奏的起伏感如果能更强就更好了，整体过于平稳，戏剧张力略感少了点味道…
和凯特温丝莱特的《裁女佳人》相得益彰，推荐观看。减一星是因为Dylan O'brien演技掉线，配角都个个出彩，唯独少爷这个角色太弱了
①过程很精彩，但事后缓过神来一咂摸，觉得不是那么回事——无论生活还是观影，常常有这样的情形，这部电影最大的问题是裁缝闹这么大动静，冒这么大风险的直接动因，并不够有说服力；②表演方面几位主角几乎满分，男主是《间谍之桥》里那个口头禅是「害怕有用吗」的那位苏联间谍，年轻女前台也不错，微表情丰富准确；③创作这种类型的电影，意料之外不难，情理之中不易，吸睛靠的是前者，但后者才真正考验编剧智商。3.75星
中规中矩的上帝视角反转舞台剧，男主的工匠精神到位
没有那么好，但也不算糟糕，算是日渐萧条的好莱坞，重新拍了一部合格的室内悬疑片。
电影像裁剪好的西装一样严丝合缝，看完更加决定今年一定要买两套优雅的套装。
体会到久违了的观片愉悦感。
一盘大棋啊。一卷磁带引发的血案，简直是兵不血刃，事实证明即使用兵器也还能打。人才啊，谋士，一看他话含机锋，一来就反间，就不可能是个普普通通的裁缝。一个晚上，一个裁缝店，一个老人，扳倒了两个大黑帮，死了个傻少爷，把鹰犬和大佬搞得团团转，引来个对手，全灭了，保全了个女儿，最后自己几乎全身而退。
高明的猎人往往以猎物出现，面对猎物会做好准备。全片节奏紧凑，起承转合流畅丝滑，最后十分钟的结局真的让人舒适了，最后告诉我们，鲁莽、狂妄、贪婪都致命，不过就像瑞奇父亲说的那样，你走上这条路还想遇到好事，那才是笑话。
最后的结尾因为是两人的二番战，反派明显有了怯意，最后打得不尽兴。
简介有误，都说几遍了 I'm not a tailor, I'm a cutter.
马东锡算是把正义暴徒演到骨子里了。第二部在人物性格的挖掘上更近了一步，笑点的编排也不生硬，各种娱乐元素的运用简直是炉火纯青。爽快之余，看着韩国的电影产业，真是羡慕啊。
看似环环相扣，实则无脑爽片，想学ROPE只有皮毛。
体会到久违了的观片愉悦感。
悬念与对话的风格有点希区柯克的感觉，剪辑出色（必须配得上cutter！），几处点烟的细节留意到了：独自一人意识到戏幕已然拉开时屡次划不开打火机的紧张，刚处理了少东家之后奉烟但不奉火的静观其变，准备伏击拉芳丹时主动帮点火的假意结盟。心里一套嘴上一套的英国人呐，你们也是玩儿不过。
不过总共才一个房间和三五个人的舞台，效果能做成这样还是挺绝的
但看下来，首尾呼应，让人觉得完整。
