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.
很多即兴音乐段落很棒，甚至有几段相当天才。4星。
這部戲激不起我内心絲毫漣漪。。。可能是題材hit不到我吧。
再走一步，再走两步。没有一刻可以浪费
对应剧版的22~26集。大战之后的调整与训练，加大世界观与承上启下。
像没有很喜欢rent一样，也没有很喜欢这个电影，只觉得嘈杂...有的歌还不错，安加菲也老了...
碎片剪辑叙事有些不连贯，但就如听音乐一般。梦想和现实、情感的碰擦在女友肩上的手指节奏上达到顶峰
音符此起彼伏还有快速变更的画面非常流畅，三层结构的创作形式不停地输出一首又一首歌曲反而让剧作失去了节奏，真的真的会让人感到审美疲劳，尽管加菲的表演真诚热烈，但这个故事并不打动人心，即使叙事的材料有九十年代初的伤痛——酷儿苦难和艾滋病，有天才艺术家亘古不变的贫穷与现实辩题，有普通人和天才的选择分歧，最终导演给观众提炼出来的122min还是一个俗套的作品，感觉热情似火却毫无余温。
这类电影很少有对我有吸引力的，不到中间就看得不太认真了
谢谢豆友们的温馨提醒：这就是tv的合集（无语😓
TV动画版的22-26集的合辑篇，与前两个合辑篇一样，与原动画相比，并没有什么新的内容或镜头，而且从故事上来说，这个合集也没有太大的爆点，真心感觉没有太大必要进行制作。故事上是第一次让所有的柱登场，同时也让众人认可变成鬼了的祢豆子跟随哥哥炭治郎和鬼杀队一起行动，之后便是三个男主的训练之旅，没有什么打斗的内容，也没有什么爽点，毕竟本身这一段就只是过度篇章，看过TV版的话，个人觉得没必要再看这一段了，确实没什么意思。

“到达一个年龄后，就不再是偶尔端盘子的创作者，而是幻想创作的服务员了” 被年龄焦虑和才华怀疑戳中！
Sunday里大咖多到眼花，都太给面子了。
有考哥的地方就有我～虽然是tv合集，可以当听力再听一遍～
Happy Birthday Jon！（结尾桑德海姆本人声演的电话留言那段，结合前不久他的离世，我哭唧唧，有种时空交织在一起的奇妙感觉
诙谐向歌舞片，故事拍的一般，吹的人醉翁之意不在酒
最近在看咒术回战 挺好看的 看很多人说就算这样还是比不过鬼刃 我心想我看鬼刃的时候没有觉得多好啊 当然很多人提到最好的应该是列车上的剧情 为了能接上列车重看了这部 就是TV版最后五集。 到目前还是很一般 但是值得期待一手列车。
Johonny has go guide. Johonny wants to hide. 没有人能够保证你一定能成功，实现自己的梦想。但是，你打算放弃吗？你能做的只是一本剧本一步剧本写下去。
乔纳森真是英年早逝，他的困境是时间，他的好朋友都在最好的年华相继去世，谁也不想在30岁还一事无成吧。可惜好歌不多，我最喜欢的一首是和朋友一起清唱的《波西米亚》。
看的时候我感觉这样的一种形式很明显是在向《灵魂歌王》靠拢，但是今年另一部奥斯卡冲帝大热门是更为传统形式上的传记片，只能说加菲在史皇面前还是嫩了点，看看有没有奇迹发生吧，本身的人物塑造和少年感都是非常不错的
