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.
作为Daniel Craig的谢幕演出，我想五星来为这位银幕英雄起立鼓掌不为过。从15年前的Daniel Craig接棒邦德被媒体恶意群嘲，到《皇家赌场》的惊艳亮相，这一位和前任与众不同的新英雄陪我们度过了15年的时光。克雷格老了，影片聚集在了他本人的谢幕，而非正邪大战，一切都足矣。Ana de Armas的出场太惊艳了，然而导演对她的戏份太懂的惜字如金，简直就是让人心跳加速。
这就是钢铁侠的套路啊（再讲多就剧透了）。丹尼尔真是很适合这个角色，无法想象下一张脸是什么样
【IMAX3D】英雄谢幕戏可以给到满分，丹叔的演技加上季默大神的音乐把氛围烘托的悲凉又深情；幽灵党排队戏给90分，要恭喜安娜·德·阿玛斯拿下2021年度最令人印象深刻的女性银幕形象；开头的实战戏和回梯长镜头可以给到80分，硬桥硬马！但是其他部分就60分以下吧，除了爱情，你本可以有更好的文化、荣誉与内核。
可惜，丹尼尔·克雷格这五部《007》有着连贯的暗线却执行过于凌乱不统一，唯一值得欣喜的是故事在主题尚未走形时结束。那些在《007》系列中变得老套的阴谋诡计并非和以往那样用于造神，失势的反派反而引出神话主角所没有的至死的孤独，以及无能的父辈。克莱格的詹姆斯·邦德最后一次成为“007”时，他被赋予的任务是终结不断增殖的父辈幽灵——杀不尽的幽灵党，以及那些一次又一次来回着各种冒险之旅的前代007。这一代，我们看到的是面对母亲的阴郁而无能为力，但又一步步回归母亲所创造的世界，直到死亡才成为普通人的一生。
虽然也是个爆米花电影 但情节设计的还蛮有趣
轻松诙谐的一部喜剧片，各种反差带来的笑料，最终结局也没有落入俗套，有时候想想，大家庭或许会有很多代沟和生活习惯的差异矛盾，但是有人陪伴以及各种温暖却也是让人感动，就像男主妈妈葬礼上说的，我相信你的到来是想让我们更幸福快乐
合情合理的结局，不然下一部就要拍007开家长会了。
“当笑时 地面都在颤抖”
05.17 AMC 点映. 第一次在国外看喜剧电影好好笑哦！国内什么时候可以有这种笑点流畅丝滑的喜剧哇qvq
毫无期待反而观感尚可，突破一定要爱情结局的俗套情节，更像是忘年交，对于各自情感问题的原因交代和逻辑要比一般小制作好的多，温馨有趣值得一看。。。
好看轻松幽默，原本以为会真的在一起，那样会很尴尬，而且我更不看好能长久，还好没有
挺温馨的…（it’s Sunday kinda movie si)
我管这种片子叫飞机电影和陈思诚看了买版权电影，男主属于墨西哥的黄政民，演技上的信念感特别强，调和了爽片剧情和女主角小妞电影演技，特别是几场多方人物身份冲突的群戏也处理得特别和谐，韩国爷爷的戏份是一个妙笔，让观众视角提高到了拉美文化中的多文化融合。
谁要看你们007成为家庭男，反派是裘千尺，最后007死于情花毒的故事啊？虽然阿玛斯妹妹的戏份依旧很突然古早风格但这种男性视角美女打架倒也不是不可以。我脑内仿佛有一个某位老师的”他们全家都死了.jpg”的表情包。
虽然很俗套 但是感觉还挺轻松可爱的 女主好美啊
当地居民抗争游行有用吗？不如帮老板娘抓奸来的快。美国群众的阶级斗争任重而道远啊。两个完全生活圈子不同的人做朋友，真是不知道除了抢酸黄瓜还能说什么。3
出人意料的好看
007 系列要想办法重生了……不然再这么拍下去，我就把 007 和碟中谍彻底搞混了……（不要招惹高科技单身狗，不然他有一万种办法让情侣们生不如死）
这个系列如果再出这种品质的作品，以后我可能真的无暇观看了。
比预料中的要好，人生中有很多弯路要走，走了之后你才发现这些路少不了。
