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.
为什么现在的动画片，动不动就得唱歌，救命🆘 好好想点有新意的故事吧，不是欢乐糖水管够就行！
中规中矩, 有些歌搭配着画面很带感, 然后没了, 就此沉没在迪士尼众多的动画电影中
这一部的音乐真的不口水 记不住但是很耐听 词也很用心 从迪士尼开始关系更多元的族群开始 这应该是最多元的一次听觉体验了 唱法 曲风 口音 都有巧思 片子好看 但是故事一般 不过事实如此 哪里有一直有效的魔法 都喜欢抓马的故事带来的矛盾和冲突 其实就是解铃人系铃人罢了 好像第一次迪士尼讲了一个给成年人的童话 依然是就算童话世界根本没有童话 幸福生活不是唾手可得 简单的恩赐和天赋更需要磨砺和爱护 虽然是个烂尾楼 但是感谢迪士尼 把不存在的童话世界粉妆的这么美妙 又温暖又快乐 2022的第一部片子 很是开了个好头
PS 疯狂动物城2啥时候定档呀
舅舅的形象真就lmm本人哈哈哈
投影仪和清晰度制约了本精神南美人的观影体验，还是该去电影院看 （去电影院看了国语版，果然迪士尼的动画还是适合在电影院看
她让大家找到了/认识了那个不完美却真实的自己，让外祖母意识到“奇迹不是每个人被魔法赋予的天赋,而是每个人自己(Miracle is you)”。 Don’t be strained by what you’ve got (power, gift…). Open your eyes, be imperfect, be empathetic and be YOU.
不和和怀疑就是心里的缝隙，日积月累终究崩塌。迪斯尼脸谱化：心情姐好像贝儿，妈妈好像frozen，大力姐像木兰。很喜欢那首drip drip drip. Para la Familia!
看了个开头就能猜到后面是什么了，就不想看了……
2.5 真的是差，歌舞毫无感染力，剧情也让人觉得并不舒服。不认为这种对和谐友善如此廉价的表现会带给观众什么真善美的感染力量
@ iv 也算是一部想看蛮久的 因为很喜欢coco对这个期待很高但是陆续有朋友看完反馈说一般就没有这么期待了 有一节writ课班上有个自告奋勇说愿意自己的文章被当成样本读的写了这个电影 错过了前面40分钟左右因为去滑冰了没想到10点赶不回来 让室友给我讲了一下前情提要本来以为可以无缝衔接剧情但一进去还是有点没看明白 感觉是我在学校看电影看下来观众reaction最好的一场了hhh 这种合家欢就很适合朋友们一起看属于是气氛组了 都是i迪士尼 剧情就不说了 不管是矛盾还是和解都很莫名其妙 画面真的很好看 歌虽然好听但是穿插在里面真的很像一些mv就有点违和 看完以后听到一些学生在讨论这个电影到底想表达啥 有的说家庭团结有的说表达自己 太老生常谈啦 观众也看腻了 要惊艳观众还是得在主题上下功夫
超能一家人？啥都没做就大和解了？这剧作也太敷衍了！真就是给小孩子看的那一种合家欢电影，歌舞还行吧，就是有点多。
画面和剧情都相当乏善可陈的套路电影。扛驴表姐的曲子挺好听的，水豚和舅舅很可爱，外婆心态转变成谜。
迪士尼歌舞片，歌还是不错的 就是剧情跟寻龙传说一样套路 中配意外还不错
超好哭的自我救赎，先找到自己才能让所有人圆满
让人难以置信《魔法满屋》居然是一部迪士尼出品的动画电影，在这部动画长片里除了迪士尼。如既往的唯美画风，以及对哥伦比亚的风土人情的体现，电影的内在几乎一无是处，苍白空洞的人物，敷衍了事的情感，都令这个故事失去了迪士尼以往天马行空的奇想，变得无趣而又冗长。
有着浓浓的哥伦比亚味道，但是剧情方面有些普通，提出了问题，却将如何解决糊弄过去了
迪士尼傳統核心價值觀宣傳片。除了第一次全家福那個時間定格的鏡頭之外，也沒什麼好值得說的了。但帶小朋友去看看還是滿好的。（喜歡順風耳）
合格的命题作文吧, 完全看得出来电影中心思想. 人物众多, 所以在成长方面刻画得不够. 但是作为节假日合家欢电影看看也可以了.
看到身边朋友睡着💤 我也毫不意外的合家欢俗套剧情，拉美背景也就剩口音了。LMM的歌过得去，小毛毛虫的对唱蛮好（看原版也能遇到妈妈给娃全程讲解剧情🙂）
