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.
谢霆锋帅炸了，可惜整部电影国语配音有点失败
港產警匪片會否止於這一部？少了溫情時刻全程火爆，甄子丹的MMA綜合格鬥技，配合雙谷硬朗簡潔的動作設計，李忠志飛車場面是久違了能保持香港地理景觀的寫實性。陳木勝到最後執迷於亦正亦邪善惡難分的生存環境衝突，說是雙雄片正邪對決，更是雙生兒一樣的一體兩面，謝霆鋒飾演的前警察被同伙出賣、背叛成匪，與甄子丹戲中堅持個人信念不同流合污被警隊內排斥，事實是殊途同歸。乃至前者的個人復仇，動搖了一直可信賴的制度，兩人面對的困境，被迫做出選擇也只是合乎個人良心。在香港警匪片越見變質，執法部門在影視印象上漸漸公安化後，陳木勝以場景回應舊時代警匪片，他擁抱又懷疑公義的態度，顯得可貴，我們也處身在兩位男主角所象徵的警察，不再復存的時代。如果能再拍下去，會否拍出他個人版本的《The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance》？
真不咋地，没有任何惊喜，倒是看完电影，刷到吴亦凡被刑拘了来的爽！
配音太做作了。
新千年以来，不论其他，只论枪战的话，我非常喜欢炸掉中环的《风暴》；只论动作的话，我非常喜欢动作够硬的《导火线》。万万没想到，《怒火》集齐了枪战和动作两个元素，而且都拍得非常硬、非常够劲。谢霆锋竟然能够顶得住，而且在文戏部分远超甄子丹。整部电影的声音处理得非常尖锐，飙车时轮胎摩擦的声音、刀划过空中刺入身体的声音、打断骨头的声音以及混战的枪声，几乎有些刺耳，这些声音所带来的的沉浸感、疼痛感，让人着迷。p.s.片头看到了《风再起时》的预告，接下来香港电影就期待这部了。
7.0 / 和拆弹 2 有太多相似点，但也看得出陈木胜无意邱礼涛那种春秋笔法，同样「警队背信弃义，用完即弃」的故事，放在这部就是一个纠结于警队内部小恩怨乃至有点架空的故事。因此谢霆锋的「怒火」跟隔壁青蛇的「执念」一样就是个悬浮的口号，甄子丹的「怒火」更无从谈起。唯一值得玩味的是双雄的名字，「崇邦」（崇的是什么邦？）和「刚敖」（谐音港澳？）一出，你就能知道他们两人的身份绝不可能对调。好在，这部的动作戏确实是近几年最佳，拳拳到肉足够生猛，难民营和结尾教堂的打戏都可圈可点。以及，谢霆锋是少有演邪魅类反派而不显油腻的人，这部确实是他自七年前《救火英雄》后的回春之作了。
你丹哥永远是你丹哥！格斗迷的青春回来了！致敬《杀破狼》的警棍械斗、《导火线》的MMA技术！时隔多年，58岁的丹哥再为大家献上一场时装武打盛宴，热血澎湃，掀起颅腔高潮，肾上腺素狂飙。十五年粉丝老泪纵横～～～
怒火发于内心 “服务为本 精益求精”；和李安的摩托戏一对比 陈木胜的打击感和紧迫感可震撼太多了
对刀剑神域一直保持着最初的感情，个人对完全沉浸式游戏这类题材的影视剧都很感兴趣，比如斯皮尔伯格的头号玩家，在我眼中就是神作！动漫的刀剑神域亦是！从剧情上看，这部剧场版，完全可以新手入坑，因为它不同于动漫，可以看作是动漫的另起炉灶，只不过世界观相同而已！所以有很高的可看性，但是对于老粉来说，感觉就有点伤心，但是随着CP的推进，还是比较满意！不过100层的冲关设定，就有点费作者的脑子了，如果一层一剧场，那我只能说有生之年都看不到结局了，很伤心！期待继续更新，不要太监！
也许该更宽容点，但的确失望。和银河的作品比也就差几个拆弹专家吧！配角都太没有个性了，也就谢霆锋还有些进步，但这个反派还不够变态，哪怕拥有杀破狼2里古天乐的发型也好！
川原砾不会写女生友情可以不用写! 设置一个女二吧关键风头全被桐人抢走 最后的结局改得我也很不喜欢 呃呃无论多么强大的女人最后都需要被男人拯救 女生之间的友情问题也需要男人来调解
可惜角色黑化的理由不够有张力，刑讯逼供、过失杀人明明就是做错了这点毋庸置疑，甄子丹的不懂变通我个人虽然不赞同，但说到底是无可厚非的……所以主题大有撑不起来的感觉，也成了这个角色唯一的瑕疵。（另，沿用的《逆战》发型并不好看。）
很久没有看到这么好看的港片了，故事至少没把人当傻子，节奏很快不拖沓，打戏非常精彩，快准狠、拳拳到肉的感觉。我愿意在电影院在多坐半小时看它多点对反派小组人物性格的刻画（如心理的转变、监狱里的会议等）来让他们后期行为更加合理。文戏有提升空间。不过瑕不掩瑜，愿意给五星支持，推荐去电影院观影。感谢剧组感谢导演（好可惜，哎）。另外，选角到谢霆锋，是真的很棒，打戏不输甄子丹，港星们这自律和敬业，我服气。
这个年纪看了依旧热血澎湃，老泪纵横。希望有生之年能体验一次沉浸式MMO
甄子丹四年前没有选去追可乐，四年后因为上司作梗逃过了一起火拼，老婆怀了孕不到三米的背后发生爆炸结果母子平安，被警署带回去调查问话结果上司钻了空子容了他一道。你不要说小谢不认命啊，搁我我也不服啊= =
如果那天是我去追可乐，我们俩的命运会不会反过来？在教堂里昭示了你我命数中的注定，在黑白间存在的灰色地带，是你我可以到达的地方吗？一杯上好的香茗，一段法庭的证言，或者一根连着爱人的引线，到达灰色地带竟然如此奢侈。邮差送信，警察送殡。你在法庭上的证言杀死了我，杀了阿晴我也杀死了自己。
問題是，劇情好像和第一季有出入？算了，看SAO就不要執著在劇情上。
2021年第224部：令人讽刺的是，现在一部中规中矩的华语电影都能被吹上天。手铐用枪就可以打坏，为什么非要用老婆和自己的命做赌注，想要强行剪炸弹线？？
回想起来最初接触刀剑是2013年的一个下午，那时我还在初中，无意间在某个平台上点开来看，后来一发不可收拾。那种感觉，像是我一直梦想着进入的世界，剑光乱舞的冒险世界。
