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.
动作戏略夸张了，尤其是跳车救小孩那一幕，谢霆锋这么多年了，尤其在一个僵脸的衬托下。
谢霆锋好像没演过反派吧，形象好颠覆。ps当晚为爱受了伤
尽管是开头即猜中结尾系列，但不可否认在连续高压的工作后，一部美漫动画是绝对可以抚慰心灵。
好酷好可爱，好喜欢这种公路片风格的结尾。如果有续集的话，大坏狼能和狐狸小姐谈个恋爱吗？
反派挺帅，程式化挺厉害，没啥大亮点，可看可不看。
套用Life&Beth里台词“我只看动画片，girl，现实生活对我来说太难了” 奥卡菲娜太有辨识度了，完全没听出狼宝是Sam爹～
画风很可，剧情套路，后面的反转看得我都累了。情感线上唯一比较让我能代入的就是狼要面临的选择：朋友还是个人原则（Or更好的生活）。此外没什么情感上的触动。狐狸女动作戏很酷！
山姆洛克威尔和主角完全match，除此之外，几乎就是粗劣地效颦皮克斯的作品。除了在好莱坞的框架下紧赶慢赶地讲完一个故事以外看不到半点创新。
在这个特殊时期，啥电影都看不到，这也算还行。
毫无新意，身边一个tween带着她七八岁的弟弟看到一半就溜了。
“好人”联盟
《低俗小说》式的餐厅开场《罗汉》系列的偷盗《神偷奶爸》般的转变《疯狂动物城》的主题与反转 / 怎么有的动物有了人格，有的还是宠物！？
较之《疯狂动物城》，它的不足在于笑点不够多，但胜在情节和演出。
看到大坏蛋第一眼就知道谁是大坏蛋，so typical. 给孩子看看还行，大人看嘛，就有点凹了。
设定以及剧情走向都特别像《疯狂动物城》，内容深度差的不是一点半点，当然一个合家欢电影要什么深度呢。
梦工厂的动画，差不到哪儿去，就是还是稍显老套，稍微有点意思的就是这种画风，很舒服，还有与观众对话，打破刻板印象，比较工整的一部娱乐动画电影，值得一看
807@橙天嘉禾世纪汇 Viktor 陈木胜遗作。黑帮化警队vs制度化帮队，似乎是近年香港罪案动作片一种偏好，也映照正现实。节奏紧用光妙演技棒还有好几处迷影彩蛋，就算老套又露骨大银幕也过瘾。谢霆锋定格惹人尖叫！哈哈哈哈哈哈
“看起来事物有时候跟表象并不相同。”
太cliche了，不明白为什么有这么高分，Hotel Transylvania 4都比这部好很多啊...
好看啊！本来各式各样奇人合作的神偷片就已经是够吸引人的了 还用动画的形式 把肢体动作都夸张化幽默化！另外 坏人变好 没变好的背绳之於法 这就是喜闻乐见的套路 所以看下来除了感觉轻轻松松开开心心 也有舒舒服服的感觉。小狼摇起尾巴来真的好可爱 紧急情况开车逃跑还要倒回去从树上接下小猫咪也太有爱了！最喜欢那只食人鱼 被两辆车夹住结果完好无缺出现在车头 舔了舔那个装置贴在了挡风玻璃上 然后帅气一跳被后面追上来的小狼接住 这真的帅呆了！不过我不喜欢这条蛇 虽然最后小狼说“额 你知道的”然后蛇说“我也爱你”这里有点感动 总体来说动作和画面都超乎意料的流畅 是个值得推荐的好电影！希望有下一集 和小狐狸一起创作更多惊喜！
