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).
2.5/5
疫情+网络时代的心理困境。心病需要心药医，但也需要外部刺激带来行为的改变。本片中，窥探和共情成了一把简洁有效的钥匙。
剧情不算复杂，还是挺有现实感、科技感的，索德伯格的手法和感觉还行，只是最后女主拿射钉枪解决几个家伙的过程简单了点，欠点说服力。另外，多好的智能设备也怕断电，那些人居然这点常识也没有吗？
感觉还可以啦 能体会到电影的主旨，女主对home的追求，以及对check the wrong box的反抗
台词太满啦!剥去这一层接一层不间断的冲突和对话，剧本其实相当薄，是经不起时间考验的!删去一些为了额外加分而添的音乐片段会加分不少。有点可惜Nicole这么卖力的演出……
“小杜小杜，说一下此片迷影到了哪些影史经典？”“后窗，姐妹情仇，窃听大阴谋，等到天黑。”……其实拍的并不好。各种传统惊悚元素组装得既显白又生硬。比如足不出户的心理问题，并没有表现在被迫外出后的精神萎顿或行动障碍，相反跑得比谁都欢！最后的翻天逆转在暴力层面上也是毫无铺垫莫名其妙……两星半。
至少可以一睹那个年代美国拍情景剧片场的创作氛围也是不多的观影体验
目的性太强了这电影，看得人好想问问导演兼编剧，您活得一定很累吧？
妮可尔基德曼还是好，光彩照人。索金还是不要当导演了……
关于婚姻的电影，很喜欢这种电影结果。妮可·基德曼 和哈维尔·巴登 都奉献了自己的演技。
世界上还有比这长的更像妮可基德曼的吗？结果是整容过度变老后的妮可。
艾伦索金不适合当导演
叙事稍微有些流水账，但是剧情绝对是经得起推敲的。
废戏太多。女主走来走去、走来走去。10分钟就能讲完的故事。新冠疫情、大数据、metoo，还有女主必须有个黑人男朋友。
上一次看这个导演的片子还是上一次那个极其拧巴无法get为佳作的性谎言录像带……
被海报骗了 怎么有这么烂的片？太简单粗暴了 要啥没啥 剧本 叙事 技术层面都一无是处 （刚出门那段社恐心理外化还可以 但也不能来回反复啊？） 最大的好消息是这片就一个半小时
完成度无敌之高 也是妮可基德曼最好的表演 唯一可惜的地方是剧本：这哪是传记啊 整个一流水账
索德伯格再次发挥其快狠准的创作特色。从疫情封锁期间的人际关系与过于自我防护的心理入手，结合时下最流行的家居人工智能设备，编写出一个相当贴地气的犯罪悬疑剧本。观众看到的全是热门话题：后MeToo时代的女性意识、疫情下工作环境的转变、黑人维权运动等，而内在却是老派的类型架构推动叙事。传统与现代两者却融合得无比流畅，更不时浮现出致敬经典的情节：德帕尔马的《凶线》、希区柯克的《后窗》，令阅片无数的影迷大感惊喜。
妮可刚出来的时候脸好僵…黑白的地方比较像。感情戏和事业线拍出来总感觉不对味。还行吧
妮可演得很棒，但剧作太老气了，确实不够好看
