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.
就冲给我妈看的笑了又哭了，在我这里就值四颗星
儿女——比想象中更爱你们！
很可惜真诚的创作太少了。
2021年的第一场电影，最后我痛哭的原因是：为什么别人的妈妈都那么好，我妈却舍得在我三岁的时候和我爸离婚不要我，12年去外地看她车祸膝盖受伤的时候为了省钱不带我去医院让因此留下后遗症，现在怀孕每晚都被疼醒，15年还想来霸占我爸给我买的房子给她后来嫁人后生的儿子做婚房！我妈是假的吧？还是我不是她生的？除此之外我真的找不到任何理由来解释她这位母亲的行为了。好羡慕那些有妈妈疼爱的人，我也好想有个爱我的妈妈。
全程出戏，被「让自己年轻时的母亲嫁大款」
带妈妈一起看的，妈妈也是国营厂的车工，也有一个老是爱喊她大名的女儿。反转后真的完全无法自控地哭得稀里哗啦，然后给妈妈递了一张纸巾。出来后妈妈说，是有点感动但没有哭，是你递给我纸巾我才想哭。贾玲处理细节蛮好的，各种喜剧桥段也很好笑23333
放在春节档可以说非常合适，贾玲一直是个非常真诚的人，这种真诚也反映在电影里。最后的部分让整部电影从单纯的搞笑与卖情怀得以升华，逝去的80年代和去世的母亲，已经做的很合理了，有笑有泪，也有艺术，春节档看的第一部还是比较满意的。
《你好，李焕英》看完了，哭是肯定的，剧本也确实不够好。可想说说在故事里看到的一个题目，就是如果我们长大后发现没有变成小时候所期望的人中龙凤，还能不能让母亲高兴了。我想电影最后也给出了答案，时光倒流，李焕英仍然会义无反顾地选择爱情，选择能逗她开心的男人而非厂长的儿子，也不会生出那个考上UCLA导演系月收入八万的女儿。
不好吃，但美食一条街只有这家店了。感谢吧。。
作为一部电影，它的节奏有很大问题。可是它的感情又太真挚了，让人无法客观给出评分。
小时候睡不着，最爱乱想的主题就是妈死了怎么办，越想越难过，有一天妈拆枕套准备去洗时，发现枕芯一大片泪渍。
要是说37亿的话，真的不至于，想扣一颗星，但是贾玲的遭遇确实可怜，就三星吧！
一度想唐探3我都温和地给了三星，这片情感立意如此朴素，起码该给四星，可我确实觉得不感人，还是打个中庸立场的分吧。好多情节和《夏洛特烦恼》一样，故事和拍法也不比唐探3高明，甚至很像，都是先一股脑搞笑，后面一个反转诉情。这是春晚小品的经典套路。最后那十多分钟反转，就像央视亲情宣传片，但胜在妈妈喜欢女儿，只要她健康快乐就好这个情感落脚点。不感动我的原因是，它真的触碰到了我的家庭的痛点，即子女都不能给父母争到面子，父母生活在失望和嘲笑中。我不愿以片中的方式去看待/处理这样的家庭存在的矛盾。电影里母亲和女儿都是乐观积极的，这样没什么不好，但同时它也回避了问题，所以它的大部分情节都和现实、和亲情无关，只在反转时赋予前面情节以母女情的意义。
没舍得花钱去看，对不起
魂穿是老套到不行的题材，但是却拍的很有新意。
3.5星，前半部分剧情零碎拖沓，让我很难带入，3 星基础分，0.5分打给后半部分妈妈跟小玲一起穿越回去的设计。
就冲给我妈看的笑了又哭了，在我这里就值四颗星
穿越是个壳，宿命是个圈，亲情是把锁，母爱是座山~
爸妈——爸爸妈妈更爱你们！
我可能是朋友圈看得最晚也哭的最大声的人。曾经我也幻想过穿越到过去告诉我妈妈不要因为家庭的道德绑架选择我爸，我宁愿最后出生的孩子不是我，只想她嫁给爱情，人生了无遗憾。但她还是用几十年的磨合和爱告诉我，嫁不嫁给爱情另当别论，她从没后悔生下我。以及她不要我月薪八万，只要我平安快乐。
