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.
一镜到底的枪战爽片，有种电脑游戏的感觉。
用《1917》的方式打开《危机13小时》，斯科特·阿金斯当年没有被选为蝙蝠侠真是可惜了，和大本气质如出一辙。
敌人太过弱智，第一次不灭口？第二次出了水坐等偷袭？
世界观太棒了 记忆回溯的设定十分讨巧 故事简单完整 但在讨巧的设定下还是比较精彩 台词和细节还是比较考究 世界观的东西拉的太大讲的却太少
沟通的重要性，直奔主题沟通的重要性！
相隔三米的墙角对战，
作为小成本的动作枪战片，本片还是很良心。故事脉络很简单，一队海豹在执行押送人犯过程中与试图抢夺人员的恐怖分子进行正面遭遇战，其间战斗场面真实刺激，打斗干净利落，攻防策略、战术动作，冷兵器及枪械处理等等细节都有模有样，看上去挺专业。而一镜到底的拍摄也让全片代入感很强，熟悉FPS的玩家应该感觉非常亲切，全片看下来发生战斗类似关塔那摩的监狱基地就像是真人射击游戏的地图，里面各种建筑、障碍物、地形应有尽有。到后期男主的主角光环虽然强烈耀眼，整体来说还是基本符合常理，没有太反人类的bug逻辑，只可惜那美女分析员挂得挺郁闷，不过显得片子真实感更强。看着一波波恐怖分子送人头，观众应该有种FPS游戏通关的快感。全片节奏紧凑，场面爽快，当成爽片看看也可以，
牺牲了很多情节的合理性……
想不到吧，是部中年更要恋爱脑的爱情片呢。把吴彦祖搞成鹦鹉的造型就真的很无奈。
不管剧本怎么样外国演员们演技都是很不错的每一个都演的很不错👍相比中国大多数演员强多了
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。
最大的特色是一镜到底，这样就给观影带来纯粹的游戏感。
拍华语烂片还是跑到好莱坞拍烂片，阿祖选择了后者。
有几个地方比较穿帮，潜行的主角应该是暴露在敌人视野里的，但敌人无动于衷。不过不影响整体效果。
没看完我就得吐槽一下，不吐不快。什么鬼啊吴彦祖耍帅那么久，居然一下子就死翘翘了，tmd
不算有新意的设定，但拍得挺有趣，要说每个人都“怀旧”也算一直在点题，但总觉得好像没有上升到更高层面。很美，在荧幕上看肯定体验更好，有很多蒙太奇都太殇了，唉。但是剧本逻辑真的太拉（怎么没让诺兰弟弟帮忙改改），有些情节真的很奇怪，吴彦祖的中文台词确实够shabi，可惜了
又是一镜到底，剧情还不错，但是镜头太晃，估计是只考虑小屏幕，大屏幕看起来有点想吐
美国战狼，也可以看作是战狼1前传，身为前海豹突击队队员的老猫在拯救DC之后即将来到中国大战吴京。
三星的故事，一镜到底加一分。开局很晃，感觉摄影师有点晕机。喜欢这种一镜到底的编排，爽、紧张、压力和意外全部被挤压到有限时间，值得反复观摩学习。
本来是很不错的创意，杰克曼和弗格森的组合也很完美，硬生生给套了个俗套又狗血的剧本。还有，不得不吐槽吴彦祖的角色不知道是怎么搞的，实在太糟糕了……Writing is goushi。
