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".
披着科幻外衣的亲情电影，软弱的丈夫，叛逆的女儿，报不完的税单，生活糟糕透顶。但如果给你一个机会，可以有完全不一样的人生，你干不干？答案是不，生活中的烦恼来自亲人们，但乐趣和开心也来自他们。人生本来就是无法割裂的矛盾统一体，多少个宇宙都是这样。
整整两个半小时啊！翻转全宇宙，球球了Evelyn和Joy在一起吧，有Becky什么事儿啊！有内老公什么事儿啊，还没她爹重要。眼花缭乱的剪辑贡献了很多可以做GIF的冥场面，如果每个人做的梦可以全息投影，应该就是这样吧
屁股插塞子这种确实好笑，但也确实被尴尬住了
所以母上突然理解了她
用最复杂的形式讲最普遍存在的情感问题，用全宇宙来催促一个人成长变化，无论你在哪个宇宙，我们都会找到你，这大概是最大的浪漫。
我还是更喜欢亲子关系不会突然化解，几十年的垂死婚姻不会突然回春，我们没有那么多可能性的电影…
看的时候狂轰滥炸，回想起来趣味无穷。例如设定：彻头彻尾的失败，才能诞生出多个成功的平行宇宙，她的潜能仍旧有被借用的机会，多么振奋的后现代叙事疗法。例如人物：中年妇女的碎片生活，青少年的虚无主义，男人的心软战斗法则，审计员缺爱才尖刻。例如关系：母亲的控制让女儿虚无，女儿的世界渴望被倾听，同性只是冲突的爆发点之一，背后是情感交流的阻隔。例如美式食物细节：过量的芝士，桌板下的口香糖，空虚的甜甜圈。我的“中产阶级”审美不断被挑战，直到石头安静的哲学对话抚平我的烦躁。结尾这么多线索居然也能收拾完好，惊为天人！这才是#the worst person in the world
用最复杂的形式讲最普遍存在的情感问题，用全宇宙来催促一个人成长变化，无论你在哪个宇宙，我们都会找到你，这大概是最大的浪漫。
华裔移民家庭的焦虑压迫窒息感太强了，导演的kinky趣味让影片轻松不少。
在《瞬息全宇宙》这里，一些隔着屏幕听着混乱，然而「面对面」看着却无比清晰的底层逻辑被「机械式思维」搅啊搅啊搅和在了一起。请问如何根据有限的经验和志趣将碎片化的信息拼贴成一个经得起历史检验的真理？不幸丧失独立思考能力的影迷自己拿不定主意，只能听从演员、编导和专家的建议，而被「大数据」唤醒历史记忆的新世代「世界公民」则被这套「无序之序」浑水般的叙事话语清洗、清洗、再清洗——直至参透宇宙的终极奥秘。尽管这场在现实中尚未平息的「热战」冲突尽显荒诞和儿戏，但在这个虚假信息满天飞的「后真相」时代，作为一种相对确定而可以把握的镜像，这部「中学为体，西学为用」既拥有朴素的情感内核又极具想象力的华丽之作除了致敬、恶搞和讽刺，或许还能帮助云里雾里的吃瓜群众看清银幕之外那一场场「代理人」战争的意义和目的。未完待续
还是更喜欢“妈的多重宇宙”这个译名。在我看来，影片的风格是朋克儒家。主题是虚无主义和存在主义的对决。/搭配麦卡伦12年，之前享受每一秒，东亚家庭教育的点用劲儿上来，还是挺让人解嗨的。内容懂，但有点过于用力了。/看了几个直男影评人的言论，引起了我深深的思考：为什么这个世界上还有直女？？/《瑞士军刀男》证明了，两位丹尼尔真的很会用大明星。/movie connection: 2001太空漫游。
最耐人寻味的可能是：类似《青春变形记》，为什么亚裔文艺作品至今都只能采用这种“天马行空”的荒诞手法才能解决母女（代际）冲突问题？面对亚裔式的家庭矛盾，这一通嬉笑怒骂、轰轰烈烈的癫狂，其实是要掩饰实质上的虚弱无力、束手无策和绝望无解吧。
目前7.6评分稍低了，个人8.5分吧。这是一部极具导演风格的电影，也是近些年关于多元宇宙诠释最好的一部影片（没有之一且完爆漫威）。很多人打低分估计是因为“爱可以拯救一切”的“俗套”结尾吧，不过某种程度而言只看到这一点说明你有一个美好的童年，关于“关系”没什么困扰。我很喜欢影片里伊芙琳和waymond的一场对话：“你每时每刻都在担心，自己是否错过了掌握人生、成就自我的机会？我现在来告诉你，你所经历的每一次拒绝，每一次失望，都戴领着你来到此时此刻。”可只有先到达此时此刻，才能走向未来。如果把人生轨迹比作一条线，你用放大镜来看它只连续不断的小点所组成的，也就是说我们只能活在此时此刻，所以压根就不是爱能拯救一切，而是爱定义了我们的存在，嗯，即便明天是世界末日,今夜我也要在园中种满莲花。
4.5。疯狂多元宇宙奥德赛。跨越无数维度和时间进行的和解，笑中带泪。「我永远、永远都想和你在一起。」
思维奔放，离奇怪诞，天马行空，醉生梦死！瞬息全宇宙，发现所有一切都没有意义，所有一切都是虚无，那就试着用爱情，亲情，友谊这些所有基于感知的，来赋予没有意义以意义。PS：形式相比内容太过耀眼夺目了！导演在这里尽情施展他浪涛般汹涌的才华！看得双眼迷离，令人目炫！
在我心里，这部电影已经是近五年里在关乎亚裔、奇幻、喜剧这些标签下最好的电影了。
奇奇怪怪 可可爱爱 内容好满 故事核心又很简单
D— / 如若只是如同Tik Tok+漫威+混剪视频式的娱乐花招以及多元宇宙的商业设定，或许还能享受其中的愉悦性质。诚然，除去同一剪辑手法无节制的滥用让人头痛外，还强行把知音式的鸡汤内容用走马观花的奇观来包装，石头对话那段cheesy到头皮发麻，母对女的挽救是毫无秘密的事实，依旧是再怎么天花乱坠却顺拐到没有一丝秘密的电影。其实不是不能把“假大空”的本真情感讲好，看看「云图」。
132分钟穿梭无数个多元宇宙（or平行宇宙）寻找解决中年夫妻问题，父女问题，母女问题以及和自己的问题。问题都是老问题，但天马行空无厘头最后还能串成一个cycle，我拍手叫绝！最后我要说，杨紫琼才是真的文武双全，打戏看得太舒服了。
555... 真的看完就很想抱着老妈痛哭一场😭😭
