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.

    妹妹人设没立起来,姐姐人设还和第二部有差别,说起来第一第二部其实情感塑造都有缺失,只是这部烂得有点过分。

  • 梓凯 2小时前 :

    开头的巴士案子看到又想复习长洱的犯罪心理了以及想起迷失(看到绑她们只是为了试验而不是煤窑和其他竟然觉得安心了那些人也没那么坏甚至女主竟然喜提超能力而不是()一定是阴间现实看多了的黑化反应和其他)。剧情真无聊。刚觉得女主和普通人姐姐的CP好好磕,结果姐姐便当了。弟弟聊天还不忘PUA女主不温柔这确实很韩国。她几次放过混混(农场被女主暴打后崩溃那里他演得真假啊,这演技怎么选上的),结果混混毫不犹豫的枪杀了她,也是相当真实。以及,学不好中文就不要硬讲,太难听了,还想特意学一些“年轻人”说的话,是看了什么奇奇怪怪某点文么“刁都不刁”这种简直是十年前土狗网文风(还真遇到的就是这样讲的“年轻人”)。看完这个决定不补1了

    就打吧打吧,几个讲汉语的嗯,很中二的感觉,适合这个无脑片

  • 萧孟阳 2小时前 :

    感觉很第一部差不多啊怎么这么多人骂哈哈哈哈。女主长得好像李钟硕啊!!!!

  • 祢鹏举 4小时前 :

    ………跟第一部落差太大,一把毁灭的超能力很厉害,但看起来没劲,颜值、剧情,每一个能打的

  • 老博厚 4小时前 :

    还行,没觉得像大家说的那么烂。和第一部的剧情连接是差了点,好像漏掉了很多剧情,前半也比较平缓,但作为一部爽片,最后的2场大战还是相当带劲的。就这几个“人”的变态格斗能力,一个地球都不够她们霍霍的。7分

  • 茹昆颉 1小时前 :

    西八含量近年之最 这辈子没听过这么尴尬的中文无语住了

  • 运谛 5小时前 :

    三颗星,但特技着实 可以加一星,那尴尬到不行的中文不如不说。 片尾大战这战斗力,复联+正联 都不敢近身,欧美超英真是弱爆了,还得看 韩国赛亚人

  • 曦馨 9小时前 :

    看样子还有第三部,这部作为过渡,算中规中矩,非常有老调重弹的嫌疑,不过韩国影视工业很成熟了,打斗特效很流畅,可惜剧情节奏掉线显得杂乱无章又拖沓,但总得来说还是可以一看的。

  • 赵毅君 8小时前 :

    这一部应该走搞笑路线的,魔女2号,鬼佬和Chief二人组都有这个潜质,可惜后面杀疯了

  • 汤霞绮 1小时前 :

    所以超能力对战的终极形态依旧跑不出金刚狼大战黑凤凰。咱看这玩意不就是为了看看动作场面,大可不必修炼到高手用眼睛就把对面瞪死了,那还看个毛。

  • 香曼 1小时前 :

    有时候真的难以忍受一些韩国电影。情绪上不懂得把握一个合适的度是通病,用力过猛或者面容呆滞的比比皆是,还是说这就是韩国演员特有的表演模式?具体到本片,特效暴发户,血浆暴发户,外文发音低保户,尬得捂脸。真的求求分点钱给请个中文配音吧谢。

  • 肇晴丽 7小时前 :

    这应该叫《真•终结者(终章)》,或者《线粒体叛逃者》,女主一动手,犹如天神下凡。同时也应验了那句话:叫的越嚣张,死的越凄惨,比如那个“实验室四人组”,各种花式装13,结果在女主面前不堪一击。

  • 法沛柔 2小时前 :

    和第一部衔接断层严重,一下子丰富了世界观,各种组织忽然冒出来相当的混乱,人物关系和第一部一样,云里雾里没有任何的解释

  • 盛允 8小时前 :

    第一部中女主有个闺蜜,二人在公交车火车上,续集开头新女主也有个闺蜜,也是在公交车上,如此相似的设定我恍惚地以为在重看第一部。第一部中的反派魔童中有个口嚼口香糖的冷面魔女,续集中的上海魔童中竟然也有一个总吃东西的冷面魔女。第一部中反派中有个油光水滑的帅哥(崔宇植),续集中反派中又来个白净的帅哥(李钟硕)。第一部女主对自己真实身份一脸懵,续集新女主还是扮无辜一脸懵。以上这么多重复的设定,导演是怎么想的啊。

  • 芮觅翠 4小时前 :

    太烂了,编剧居然可以省事儿到这个地步。

  • 滑若雁 6小时前 :

    唉……做过能力强者就完了,真的没必要硬加感情线

  • 蔡书慧 8小时前 :

    又不是拍电视剧,几年才出一部电影,不想着填坑,挖的坑却越来越多,真是不怀好意。电影的节奏也是诡异。

  • 郸绣梓 2小时前 :

    韩版的复仇者联盟,魔女就是旺达,也可能是凤凰女,速度、力量、再生,在魔法面前都是弟弟……还有点小好看,虽然血腥了点,可以直接从1:45分开始观看,不影响理解剧情……期待第三部

  • 辰龙 1小时前 :

    弱鸡的故事,散装的情节,也就结尾的打斗场面非常震撼,不过也是拾第一部的牙慧。一度农场主的女儿喧宾夺主了,这导演能力捉急啊。明显的过度章节,第三部有得等了
