剧情介绍

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.

    和新认识的男孩子的第二次约会,人一直在腻歪,害得我啥也没看进去。男孩子刚开始喜欢女孩子的时候都是一个样的吗?腻歪个啥,看电影不香吗?虽然剧情没怎么看,但是闭着眼已经预判了大部分剧情,还强行cp,漫威要不要这样消耗我们这些漫威迷的感情??

    就是说……以后还是远离漫威宇宙吧……省一点时间是一点

    水平在线,中规中矩。故事确实比较俗了,剧情没什么新意,但是漫威拍出来的暗黑超级英雄的质感还是在线的,作为一部爆米花片来看还是行的。漫威宇宙又在扩展,风格越来越丰富,期待更多新片上映。

    看了只有100分钟,就看了。结果,浪费了100分钟。

  • 璟呈 7小时前 :

    本片给我最大的启示在于“几分钟说电影”的账号也可以如CCAV一般在真实素材的基础上扭曲事实。哪怕论据是真实的,结论也是合理的——这是部烂片,但论证过程的不严谨甚至可以说是刻意造假,会让整个评论变得毫无意义。

    秃鹫都穿来索尼蜘蛛侠了,两代索尼蜘蛛侠外加毒液都穿去mcu英雄无归了,2022年了怎么还有人在撇清关系?两边共享同一个多元宇宙设定,关系不比《哈利波特》和《神奇动物》远,一荣俱荣一损俱损,扑了就是扑了有什么好洗的?还“秃鹫穿越来未经漫威ceo许可”,这么严重的侵权行为索尼没被迪士尼告到破产?大家都看了这么多年超英,角色版权的从属关系一个个都门清,还能聊成这样我也是醉了。

    一星给特效,一星无疑给莱托少爷,但是,剧情倒扣一星,俩彩蛋倒扣一星,所以合计四舍五入一星不能更多了,谢谢。

  • 谢嘉惠 8小时前 :

    前面三十分钟描写小时候情感真挚,莫比乌斯头脑聪明和已有黑化前兆的麦隆都栩栩如生,身患绝症的脆弱感更吸引人。直到莫比乌斯变身后简直是灾难的开始。哥哥打了研究出来的药,变成怪物。不给弟弟用也不给弟弟解释。弟弟偷偷用,开始杀人,哥哥被抓进牢。哥哥越狱,和弟弟打,哎,打赢了,弟弟要屎,屎前还煽一把情,向黑豹学的痕迹不要太重。这剧情简直和女主的演技一样扁平。BGM糟的一比,简直乱配的。特效也就慢动作+泼墨?不知道这泼墨特效想表达什么。警探两个角色有跟没有似的。浪费了这么多好演员。拍了个啥玩意啊。实在是辣鸡的一比。

  • 钊谛 7小时前 :

    可能在大荧幕看体验会好一点吧,但任何无法让人进去角色内心的电影永远都算不上优秀,哪怕是莱托真的非常非常适合扮演吸血鬼这样的角色也不可以。B级片的剧情但却没有B级片的尺度那就还是算了吧......

    当少爷精致的面容一次次被损害,我???老子不能忍,低分伺候。而小11实在太惨了!就算没了特效还像糊着一层特效。星星都给前1小时的剧情还可以,后面老套而没有升华。

    5.3分。果然是名不虚传的烂,而且很明显感觉到是剧本的极度敷衍。马特·沙扎马和伯克·沙普勒斯这一对编剧简直就是阿特·马库姆和马特·霍洛威的低配版,后者编的东西无聊但至少还算能看,前者是敷衍到什么人物塑造全都不要。就像一个机器人写的东西,这段是煽情场景,就写一堆听起来很感动实则什么感情都没建立的话;主角后面很成功,比起刻苦攻读明显从小天赋异禀更好拍;就这种敷衍态度下能整出来好电影就有鬼了。在这部烂片里我只可惜马特·史密斯,电影之路走的如此不顺,《终结者:创世纪》被腰斩,好不容易搭上漫威顺风车还是大烂片。
