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.
列车，湖边画画很美好
这些问题非常复杂，且牵涉到人性、伦理、道德和法制等层面，想想就好，不用急着回答。至于我，我的答案是……我不知道。我真的不知道，最好永远都不用知道。
一个女性的生命和清白只能由两个男性的决斗来决定，而他们决斗却只是为了各自的声誉。
虽然是中世纪题材，实际上却充满适用于当下的警示。雷德利人到晚年仍在做自我颠覆与解构的尝试，着实可敬。越来越喜欢朱迪·科默。另，这可能是我最喜欢的字幕结局了。
Judie 尽显大女主风采，每一个特写都那么美；Matt，Ben 和 Adam 的演出精彩纷呈；看完此片，只想祝雷老爷子电影艺术生命无限延续~ Long live Ridley!!!
太伤感了。Cameron和Jack吵得要打架时 C突然癫痫发作 J却突然软下心来扶住他，并说“一定不能让她（Poppy）知道这个事”，看到这里突然好感动 原来克隆不克隆 所有的矛盾的基准点都是在不伤害P的前提下 这份爱真的好让人动容。最后C回到了家 和儿子碰杯和老婆最后的拥抱 还有J献给C最后老婆的表白 真的让人忍不住感叹这段感情的美。其实如果是我 哪有那么矫情自私 只要是那个人和自己最爱的人喜好相似外貌相似就已经开心得泪流满面 更别说完全一样了 如果真的有什么遗憾 那就是给那个人幸福的不是自己让人有点惋惜。PS我真的希望导演可以把那句“我曾经出轨”删掉！PPS男主好帅身材好好！
对比这两天的新闻来看，更显出这部电影的好。
只是希望，因为快绝望
有种在看《黑镜》的感觉。既然如此相爱，为何不坦诚相待？一厢情愿地做了这些决定，有没有考虑到对方将来要是察觉异样得知真相，是否能够接受这些以爱之名的所作所为？—— Panda的2021年度外语电影：5月→《夏日国度》《兹山鱼谱》《教室里的一头牦牛》…，6月→《温蒂妮》《午夜天鹅》《担保》《比得兔2：逃跑计划》《耳光》《漫漫寻子路》《里夫金的电影节》…，7月→《浴火鸟》《花束般的恋爱》《偶然与想象》《埃舍尔街的红色邮筒》《三真集团英语托业班》《哦！文姬》《浪客剑心 最终章 追忆篇》…，8月→《渔业阴谋》《X特遣队：全员集结》《孩子们很有趣》《人生最棒的礼物》《健听女孩》《游戏男孩 电影版》《新秩序》《马卡卢索往事》《如纸人生》《喜剧 爱妻物语》《卡吉尔女孩》《温德米尔儿童》《对我来说非常珍贵的你》《失控玩家》…；…
作者避开了忒修斯之船问题的哲学探讨，
一部好的电影就是随着情节的发展，观众在不知不觉间随着主人公流泪了，自然到无所感知。在电影的结尾，看着Cameron和儿子告别，看着妻子的深情表白，我跟着Cameron的哭泣而情不自禁的流泪。如果复制一个自己，可以减少自己离去而对家人造成的悲恸，你会愿意复制一个自己吗？有一处重要台词我认为翻译错误 Cameron对妻子内疚时说"I drifted." 应该是 我疏远你了的意思，翻译成“我出过轨。”实在是大错特错，出轨应该是 "I cheated." 这是个不应该的错误。
男性角色都操着一口美式英语就算了，14世纪背景真实事件改编的电影里能少说几个fking吗ps想来想去还是加一星给朱迪的表演 比起那群宁古塔的老爷们精彩多了
玛格丽特是不幸的，因为两个男人都无非把她当做占有物来玩弄，但她同时也是幸运的，因为她活了下了，得以说出自己的故事。可以说是雷公版本的《切腹》，对patriarchy的完美讥讽，真正的人性诗篇。
我希望人类啊，不要虚妄地抬头只望着月亮，也不要紧盯着无数六便士的反光
雷老爷子新片，超强演员阵容，评分也不错，票房滑铁卢。
分两次看完全片，前两个视角过于沉闷导致观感索然无味但铺垫详实稳健，最后玛格丽特的视角才真正升华了全片，也是电影的高潮和点睛之处。雷老爷子宝刀不老，用大制作拍小故事，服化道还原到位，战斗场面处理得依旧犀利震撼。好期待雷老爷子再拍一个中世纪的冷兵器战争片啊。
本以为是讲罗生门，谁知道却是Metoo。除了内容有些冗余，暗示太过明显，技法也太过传统之外，老爷子的水准可谓炉火纯青。孩子是谁的？发色和母亲一致不同于两位男性。根据豆友文章，女主和男主之后又育有两子。
要说能克隆，还能编辑基因去掉致病基因而不能治疗现有病症，我是不信的。好吧，讨论的不是技术层面。然而克隆了这一次也不是不老不死。克隆的出发点是规避痛苦，但可以躲掉这次的痛苦，还能躲掉以后的悲痛么？说不定克隆人第二天就被车撞了呢？所以如果是我的话是不会选择克隆自己的
Apple TV+一贯路线，科幻外壳包裹的家庭温软核心。未来世界UI设计和家装风格保持Apple产品概念高度一致的平行质感，干净冷寂，为探讨弥留之际生死哲思的镜像对话构造透彻空明的氛围舞台。类似的以克隆人延续不治之症病躯身份的伦理辩题早在Klara and the Sun等很多文艺作品加以探讨，但本片无意挖掘更深向度的思考，始终紧扣天鹅之死悲鸣绝叫的题眼，细腻温馨的走马灯如脉脉流水贯通复制双生的对视之间。一块巧克力的尴尬邂逅和啤酒就毛豆的父子告别尤其动人。归根到底，仍然是一部小品文，Mahershala Ali优秀的演技使这个毫无新意的过时故事增添了许多可看性。Dumb Witness再现，备份重生绝对不是万无一失的白色谎言，我们只能止步于Cameron无憾又悲恸的那一行泪，被爱的配方满足。
这让最后的决斗看起来无比残酷，但也十分可笑。
