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.

    名字叫神秘海域,結果內容卻是國家寶藏,海域不多更不神秘,最後還上演了一場天空船大戰。還有尋寶的過程中又是能通向夜店,又是能從下水道看到下面,那這被人瞎撞到的幾率也太大了吧,就算別人沒有鑰匙,起碼也不會一直這麼神秘了,特別是最後一道門上面就直接是下水道,就真的也太扯了,比前面的地道通夜店還扯。這個類型真的被拍爛了,這個明明掛靠遊戲改編的電影竟然一丟遊戲感都沒有,那掛這個名的意義在哪呢,就是不太合格的爆米花

    剧情其实一般,不过整体观感不错。所谓“神秘海域”但是对海域的描绘很少,在巴塞罗那的探险倒是挺多挺精彩。整体节奏不错,紧张刺激,不拖拉,不过某些细节的表现也是比较俗气,比如到哪个国家就用当地的特色音乐表现一下,好莱坞的这种手法好像一直这么俗。荷兰弟身材越来越好了,漫威时期果然练的不错,身手也越来越好了,感觉以后饰演007都可以了,哈哈。。沃尔伯格宝刀有点老,动作戏已经很少了,不过气质犹在。女主感觉又好看又不那么好看,倒是和电影的气质比较搭。

    剧情非常闹着玩,双男主没得化学反应,除了开篇空中打斗外动作戏也泛善可陈。。

  • 浩骏 6小时前 :

    幼稚,草率,乏善可陈,就这索尼还磨了这么多年,全是徒劳无功

  • 蒿山雁 4小时前 :

    以兄弟情的密码串起寻宝行动,盗外有盗,天空与海盗船奇观好看,其它不是我的菜,两个女主尤其不可爱。

  • 杜念瑶 1小时前 :

    如果是别人演勉强及格,荷兰弟演,两星以下。看完怎么说呢?毫无惊喜,两个男主几乎没有性格魅力上的塑造,以至于大结局你根本对两人毫无感觉,俩女主也是工具人,尤其是一刀杀老大得情节,简直莫名其妙,反派降智,情节干瘪,连合家欢的爆米花电影都算不上,就每次情节转折你都以为它会憋一个大的,然而真的转折后你就会发出,就这?这样的感叹,关键是这种转折出现了三次以上,以至于最后都懒得猜,只能摆出快结束吧!爱咋咋地的表情。反派不强就代表主角很弱,荷兰弟算新生一批里流量和演技都在的明星了,实在想不出为啥演了这样的烂片,结尾看样子还有2,可得了吧!

  • 鄞子楠 7小时前 :

    一星半,除了第三幕看得出来是花了点钱以外基本没啥能看的戏(尤其是有一场沃尔伯格和黑人女反派打斗的戏,从节奏到关系镜头与动作逻辑的交代都非常差,完全就是国产三流电视剧水准),仔细想想还是开场前的《新蝙蝠侠》贴片预告更好看一些,非游戏迷和对这个题材没兴趣的人就不用去看了。当然,成龙大哥如果看了这个应该还蛮欣慰的吧,那么多致敬,甚至开篇没多久就照搬《警察故事》,也是挺有趣的。

  • 松向露 0小时前 :

    居然…蛮好看…不愧是索尼亲儿子片。如果看IMAX的确能给到四星。配乐也好,是RD配的。班德拉斯戏份也比我想得多一点点,而且在他面前荷兰弟演技真不行,但是,这片子的确只能往游戏时间线之前拍而不是之后,而年轻小白孩里找一个打星,还真也就荷兰弟了… 不喜欢沃尔伯格,太丑,苏利明明是个帅老头;飞天船战设计得很不错,加分~ 沙滩上那个莫名冒出来塞台词的路人帅大叔怎么就那么熟,看完一拍大腿,这特么是Nolan North啊!笑死~ 【这片子就该是和宅友酒足饭饱后一起看着玩,可惜没得看也没朋友【教练我好想去巴塞罗那啊啊啊

  • 莲优 4小时前 :

    我以为是个传统的故事,在各种新三观不断涌现的当今电影世界,这部电影太守旧了。没想到它的确有点过时,而且俗套。有美女为何没有俊男?

  • 臧康健 4小时前 :

    拍卖会一游,钥匙到手。

  • 柔琳 4小时前 :

    多打一分是因为我很喜欢寻宝电影,而《夺宝奇兵4》上映是14年前,《国家宝藏2》是15年前。就电影本身来说,游戏原作里那些比《速度与激情9》还要离谱的超人动作闯关桥段变得像过家家,汤姆赫兰德和马克沃尔伯格像两个蹩脚standup comedian硬对美式尴尬小玩笑和small talk,有魅力的Sophia Ali和Tati Gabrielle戏份有限,班德拉斯好容易慷慨陈词一段就被抹了脖子,有意思的仅仅是古迹和现代地点的转换。这个电影要拍系列可能都要变成针对殖民主义迫害的某种虚空赎罪

  • 曦岚 5小时前 :

    提前离场了,这什么,rnm退钱。我对爆米花片很少这么刻薄,谁让它正好撞上我心情不好,该。汤姆赫兰德,几场下水戏也洗不掉的油。剧情更是跟闹着玩似的。

  • 梓桂 2小时前 :

    总之,一切都很俗套,这年头商业大片的打斗工作设计都比不上八十年代,乌鸡鲅鱼了

  • 雯云 7小时前 :

    虽然不知道为什么他哥哥失踪就一定要去找他弟弟同行。虽然剧情一直穿插不信任到信任的梗有点无趣,但探险寻宝的老主题还是不会腻。飞机掉落那节嘴巴说着也太夸张了吧!内心想着要是看imax就爽了。

  • 樊英卫 9小时前 :

    总之,导演把影片的表达很完整,演员的表演也很不错。迈克是肉眼可见的帅气,安吉尔是越看越好看的那种类型(一开始我觉得她并不好看,一度不想看了🙈)
