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).
腔调挺足的，调性一点点邪性，一点点古典，当然布列松啥的我我我还get不了。关键问题是这个故事我看不懂，是反战？反漂亮国？救赎？那这些和算牌和赌博又有啥关系？就男主一张冷脸西装革履的坐在赌桌前去拯救一个乱七八糟的小屁孩，我莫民的觉得这是bl场景~~~救命
【Cineplex】非常沉稳的一部作品，体现了导演对传统的坚守，不过这份坚守符合不符合时代转变和电影风格的时代转变就是另一个问题了。
剧情太老套了吧！男主身材好长相还好，还纯情，这种男的也就电影里有吧
Lucy Hale这种题材的电影真实驾轻就熟 跟男主好🈶️chemistry /冬天躲被窝里舔屏就够了 要什么逻辑！
纽漂的大学毕业生周末在朋友家一起看的电影。看完了就出去喝一杯那种
再一次问为什么没有半分制度 我要给两点五
剧情有点儿戏，男女主颜值一般，男主满脸褶子。但是轻松喜剧好看就完事儿了。
三星半。议题是激进的，创作过程却是保守的，保罗·施拉德需要一次突破。
保罗施拉德擅长用对话做人物状态，这两年的电影都有对伤痕的救赎，但表现出来却浅显了许多，心理惊悚可不是他擅长做的啊。搞下来，台词和心理推动都不太好

这样天天对着又男帅女美怎么不可能产生爱情磁场 好几处真撩人
故事其实很老套，但是两个人的化学反应真的还不错，甜甜的办公室恋情。
剧情两星半，但谁让我就喜欢看帅哥美女在漂亮的都市里谈恋爱。三星半！
男主有点禁欲系的意思，蛮戳我的，谁能抗拒举高高亲亲，轻松的电影，可！
3.5星，剧情没太有新意，但是我喜欢的类型所以完全看得下去，幼稚的吵吵闹闹又互相吸引，轻松开心打发时间，不觉得无聊，如果不喜欢这种类型就不必看了
很可爱的爱情轻喜剧，男女主身高差好萌，Lucy离开《美少女谎言》后拍电影了，很好很适合她
与《算牌人》最相像的是斯科塞斯的《爱尔兰人》，二者都在本是绚烂张扬的类型里拍出了萧索之气。施拉德那新教徒般的节制在这个寓言中显出恐怖的一面来，他的男主角的道德性即体现于这种节制，他是一个能算牌的人，能看透坐庄的美国体系里自洽的极权性，却只稍作利用以维系生活而不加追究。直到最后，他才成了真正的威廉·退尔，一个斗士。他在自由之时却似乎活在玻璃监牢里，而在监狱中反而获得了真正的自由。
星星给配角们。这个故事也......是要用莫名奇妙的软色情这张牌？正常点，有什么不好呢？
But I personally don't think it's okay for them to behave like this at work. It really creates bad working conditions. If I were their collegue, I'll 😡.
