Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
为什么没标签了？美国电影 犯罪 爆炸贝专注制造肾上腺素，不过这一部爆炸少了，但是镜头更晃了…拉人入伙的时候晃可以说是制造不安感。但后面几乎一直在晃就不舒服了，话说现如今拍电影都要用穿越机了么…虽说快速移动的俯视角我还是挺喜欢的~片子的结局以美国片来说也是相当正确了…犯罪者伏法，起码也算是达成了一个最初的目标…不过个人还是更喜欢罗汉系列那种智力型的犯罪片…
只要出场的角色都恨不得拍一个小传 自鸣得意的摄影看得人精疲力尽 自言自语的故事仿佛永远望不到尽头 自我致敬更显黔驴技穷 就不能拍一部简单的高概念犯罪爽片吗
翻拍自丹麦同名电影，黑白两兄弟制造了洛杉矶银行大劫案，劫持一辆救护车和里边的人质展开逃亡，与全城警察对峙。无论是大量推拉镜头还是浮夸的打光，都是熟悉的爆炸贝味道。枪战追车的传统艺能虽强，可因为叙事能力差，导致观众是视觉疲劳的。他电影的文戏，包括《石破天惊》和《变形金刚》，都有种不能触达细节的MV式的叙事廉价感。打劫银行我以为能有多重设计反转，没想到就是杀出去而已，极度简单粗暴，所以也不用期待他靠这一部能重回巅峰了。倒是吉伦哈尔出现在这部电影里让我吃惊，他饰演的这个人物很有特点，表演上是降维打击的，就觉得有点浪费了。
3.5。从粗糙的片头开始就带有上世纪好莱坞动作片的古早味，加上吉伦哈尔20年不变的脸，除了超夸张的无人机摄影几乎看不出任何2020s电影的氛围，还挺怀旧的。剧情就是too dumb to be serious，在完全的怀疑暂停中笑了两个小时。
好。。。。。。。长。电影院看应该挺爽的。
2022.4.23 比北美晚两周！服了 国内还删减了一分钟 正巧在上线这天(4.22)出资源了 还是没删减的 这谁还去看阉割版 笑死 但也刚好封校了看 没毛病 还是树人第一次彻底封校…也是刚知道是翻拍06年的丹麦电影 虽然是首发人工字幕 但其实质量已经不错了 这片在国内居然能过审有点惊讶 结局真有点不敢相信 黑人坚持要救护士和警察 丹尼因为黑人受伤想杀死护士 但却被黑人亲手射中致死 一个抢银行的故事 一个支行有3200万刀有点不敢相信 警官帮劫匪修车真是乌龙 抢完银行劫持救护车 杰克吉伦哈尔有点适合演反派的 合力救警察 还献血 6的 直接17岁就开始抢银行 还换司机就为了给受伤的警察做手术 还要医生指导手术 中途内部起内讧好几次 死的人居然是那个人的儿子 为了帮男主死掉了 最后男主gg
不是Jake演的话谁要看这无聊的东西啊 原来是卖拷贝啊 没事了 PS 虽然但是 最后一枪也真是气死人
非常典型的卖拷贝动作片，节奏非常快，电影院看非常刺激！
做为弱剧情重感官的大爽片，这剧作结构确实很爆炸贝，开头二十分钟快速过人物跟背景，剩下两小时全在追车枪战加爆炸。除了经典的大仰拍，360环绕拍，最有意思的还是首次在商业电影里使用穿梭机做为主要拍摄器材，神经病一般的运镜简直玩疯了。一般的科班导演还不一定会这样玩，毕竟影像作品没有框架限制才有无限可能。
整体拍得很混乱，既没有明确的犯罪线也没有明确的追捕线，除了中后段有一段追车做手术那里还比较抓人，其他的就很一般。女主过分冷静，男主过分亢奋，男二就是做着坏事但还要立牌坊那种。看完之后就一个感觉，乱。
很一般了，故事真的是不好看，只能说是救护车速度与激情的一天了
爆炸贝能把这么简单的故事讲得乱七八糟足见无可救药
唉，到底哪个是真兄弟？
在熬过堪称灾难的第一幕后，卖拷贝还是回归到了他熟悉的叙事节奏当中，超饱和的镜头密度和不间断的外部视角令人目眩神迷，几乎没有留有任何喘息的余地，一路向西直至奸雄陌路。视觉听觉的反复轰炸虽然老套但也有效，且不论自带4D效果的视觉体验，观罢数小时后耳旁依旧嗡嗡作响，只能说诺兰震耳欲聋的配乐风格后继有人。
5，好乱……无人机视角是个好的想法，但是执行的就那样吧。
感觉比期待的好，主要是镜头水准在线的，另外BGM选的很nice～
什么弱智剧情，看的人好生气，想干死那个黑人
黑人兄弟最后的行为有点不够义气不太厚道啊。
Fan fuxking tastic, so fuxking tired.
剧情弱智。全程摄影机跑的比车都快，镜头就没固定过，反而烘托不出紧张气氛了。
