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.
就差一面英国国祺了
章子怡用女性细腻的笔触和情感，展现一个航天工作者和母亲双重身份下的坚韧和温柔。
徐峥果然承包了我的笑点😂
债已还清。邦德贯通性地这种大对体的喉舌，一直以一种为我论的蛇皮主体去进行调和；这种本真主义粘缀的为我论是，是难以调和两个激烈冲突的二元场域。邦德作为主体（ego）的中介性是难以承受分裂冲突的场域的。邦德的本体论被束缚在官僚架构，被束缚在时代弃儿的元叙事，这种老套的，布尔乔亚式的“潇洒特工”形象 作为这一叙事其中的主体性早已被碎片化的光明会叙事所俘获，为king and country的意识状态所俘获，这种小布尔乔亚的范式是在塑造一种myth，一种神话，一种非自然（artificial)被视为是自然生发的。本片将邦德塑造一种雕塑式的完美范式，通过最终极的牺牲，让邦德的塑像本体论遭到了的同时也为这种浪漫化，这一大众神话的icon，这种对小布尔乔亚范式下的特工浪漫化，后冷战的迷思让这些自我主义者
抛弃自己的东西
最爱章子怡，徐峥一如既往的稳，吴京的虽感动但最后关头有点垮，沈腾的有点差。几个故事选的都不错，但对这种拼盘电影有点失去兴致了。
徐峥《鸭先知》＞章子怡《诗》＞＞＞沈腾《少年行》＞＞＞＞＞＞＞＞＞吴京《乘风》
命题作文的质量越来越高，每篇时长四十分钟，对完整叙事大有帮助，只可惜还是意犹未尽。
花钱买罪受 男性享乐真tm无聊 感动自己去8
下一部不会真的拍那个谁吧，我的天。还有，有这么好的一个现成的人选，邦女郎怎么能瞎搞成这样。纯情007+带英驱逐舰全球战备，挺匹配都是梦话嘛。
意大利和古巴两场戏不错，后面就很无聊……还以为阿玛斯是女主呢……
因为是007系列所以给7分（不是）
头一小时OK 基本满足对007系列的想象 后面一路拖拉无聊 冒失女探员是全片最大亮点 但是没头没尾这人就没了……结尾邦德的结局能理解 但是真的是没有比这更无聊的处理方式了 很刻意 也不煽情也不壮烈
告诉你山川大河
吴京篇感觉最一般，手法很baby。徐峥篇画面非常韦斯安德森，沈腾篇立意最好，章子怡篇情感很好。
拍得其实挺好玩的，也能体现当时的ggkf，这几年来社会的日新月异。可惜当时的广告是ggkf，现在是无孔不入的zbzy
07.10.2021 | @ Regal Majestic | 开头一段和后面一段动作戏拍得还不错，可惜中间有点太拖了。太多演员参与游戏制作的后遗症就是看着Rami Malek和Lea Seydoux在一起的镜头就有种穿越去了Until Dawn和Death Stranding的crossover……
章子怡用女性细腻的笔触和情感，展现一个航天工作者和母亲双重身份下的坚韧和温柔。
最后的枪战，大家都在描边，就你邦德在打中间。
《诗》应该算是章子怡真正意义上的第一部导演作品，作为四个故事里的唯一女导演，她没有辜负这份期望，影片拍的细腻且动人。
