The story appears simple on the surface, but is revealed, especially after multiple viewings, as more multi-layered and textured than Cassavetes at his best. Ostensibly it concerns a 14-year old Catholic girl, Wynne (Agutter) growing up in this post-modern wasteland, who develops a crush on her much older adoptive brother (Marshall)- a crush which perversely deepens and grows into infatuation once she starts to believe he is the local sex killer. This is in itself an idea that makes you sit up and jolt, but as the narrative develops, it continues not necessarily along a linear path but in several confusing and fascinating directions: the family's history, (detailed effectively in chilling flashback during an improvised seance) is a chequered one, and has suffered at least one major relocation and upheaval in the last ten years. At the crux, however, it's the depiction of socialal changes that make I Start Counting so fascinating and elevate its language far beyond the confines of the standard horror film. The major subtext- that teenage girls were maturing more quickly than before, and developing full sexual and romantic appetites (even if in thought rather than deed) but were not possessed of enough discretion to make the right choices- was a step forward for a genre in which its young females had previously been portrayed as bimbo victims (Cover Girl Killer and The Night Caller spring to mind), but not one that all viewers would necessarily agree with. But most striking of all, and possibly the most enduring image which the viewer will take away with them, is of the masterful symbolism with which director Greene invests every shot. Every inch of the Kinch family's world- their house, their walls, their TV, Agutters underwear, bedroom furniture and toys, Sutcliffe's clothes, Marshalls van, the local Catholic church, their town centre, their record shop) - is painted a bright, scintillating white- a white which, by inference, is slowly becoming smudged and corrupted with the dirt of the outside world. White also symbolises, of course, purity and innocence (two qualities Catholic schoolgirls are supposed to hold dear), and it is into this world of innocence that the ever-present red bus (a symbol of violation and penetration), conducted by the lecherous yet similarly juvenile Simon Ward, makes regular journeys. The allegory is further expanded in one scene where Agutter believes she sees the Christ figure in church weeping blood: by the time we acknowledge it, its gone, but the seed has already been planted. Rarely in a genre production has the use of colour and background been so important or effective in creating a uniformity of mood. I Start Counting is as near-perfect an end to a decade as one could hope for, and exactly the kind of film people should be making now- which is, of course, exactly why they never will. A genre essential. by D.R.
算是阿金斯这几年作为主角还可以的一部了，伪一镜到底，从头到尾基本都是枪战戏，有点视觉疲劳，有很多镜头晃得有点晕。
斯科特阿金斯的枪战片看的越多越是怀念他博伊卡时期的肉搏战。一镜到底的质感还算不错，我自己看的时候只感觉到两三处明显的剪辑痕迹。敌人有些源源不断的意味，而队友一个接一个地倒下，有那么一点在看中国抗战片的感觉。反战内核也是很明显，多方势力操纵、极端势力洗脑对人精神的损害也被很好地表现了出来。
啥玩意儿 又臭又长 狼叔好深情啊 good lover
两难选项～～沉浸的游戏感自然会牺牲叙事，因为后者需要抽离和精简，而刻意在连贯动作中插入情节，又会显得不可信。两个可以加分的点，袍泽之情和电车伦理如果再加点力度，节奏再松一点，效果可能更好。
升级版的营救题材。枪战集中，女一太弱，场面不好，集中在岛上，没有大场面，海上戏都没有，像个CS。索马里行动可以借鉴。缉毒类的营救也可以借鉴。
本以为是一局政治阴谋，不曾想等来了一部真人CS（类似现在的年轻人更喜欢吃鸡） ，枪战部分非常赞，尤其几个一镜到底代入感非常强。
从主题立意到实际剧情完成成都 都很过时 很想十年前的东西 还有吴彦祖的蹩脚中英文混杂很学渣
小成本的海豹营救片，除了过于夸张的孤胆英雄风格有点老套之外，其它还是可以看的～最好的部分是以战地记者视角拍摄的手法在敌我中穿插，临场感较强。CQB，CQC部分完成得尤其爽快，描写队友牺牲也不再念诗看照片了，废话不多，稍差的部分是用刀的技术动作，浅插多扎的特点没有体现出来～基地有点山寨，美国旗的质感不对，墙裙也是新刷的，两个负责人性格也是太标签化了（其实反派也是），阿什丽果然是吸血鬼需要用木棒插死吗？有点搞笑的酱油了～人质才是顶着最大的光环怎么都死不了～
还不错，现实版的CS训练营，虽然最后主角光环杀了太多人有点过分，不过反恐的逻辑和反思还是掩盖了保安体系的儿戏。稍微有点长，后面有些拖沓。
动作片长镜头？得康康/一个常规的动作片剧情能一镜到底拍出来的确挺震撼的，不错。
one mission one shot
不知道为什么，看一镜到底的片子总是很累
打戏还是可以称赞的，剧情真的呵呵。估计编剧也写烦了，一颗人肉炸弹把所有演员炸死……
真实战场，很多动作都专门调教过，阿特金斯的搏击和瑞恩菲利普的颜相辅相成
前半截不错，各种战术动作，不吹不黑，中规中矩；后半截开启一人军团模式，一把匕首一只手枪团灭所有恐怖分子，确实就有点扯了，好好的一击愣给拍成吃鸡了～～
最后那个筹码到底是不是个谎言，无从得知，这个结尾还真挺不错~~斯科特·阿金斯身手了得。
这个形式还是有点意思的，所以给四星鼓励一下。剧本一般，有个别比较亮眼的地方，但也有很多时候让人感觉编得不怎么考究。
我靠！一人干几百人的神勇无敌，咋就没人说这美版战狼了呢？怎么干都是别人死，打的倒是很爽，剧情就瞎鸡巴扯！
