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.
1、原来韩国受中国文化影响如此之大；2、是因为中国历史上这样被流放的人太多了，所以中国创作者就体会不到而拍不出来了么？就像昌大没法把对鱼的了解当成可以惠及后人的知识；3、电影节奏极好，用黑白色掩饰现代建筑的色彩，既讨巧又符合古味，而且契合社会黑暗之内涵，群星出彩和青鸟飞空是锦上添花；4、电影以当下韩国对中态度，没有正视中国文化古时在管理、教育和科举之打通阶层等作用，还以“空贴”讥讽，整体以两位主角逃避官场的姿态，并以简要笔触论西优东劣，减一星。
本以为只是体现印度底层人民苦难以及人权律师如何为底层人民奔走，没想到探案的部分也很精彩。这个片子看着真的太惨了啦！！！以及，依旧是印度电影，不惨的时候还是有歌舞。
我想说，印度电影的进步，逐日一般迅猛啊-----影片的主题是“很满意自己根据良心做出的决定”。
杰伊是印度语万岁的意思，比姆是印度宪法之父。电影关注底层，不畏强权，伸张正义，敢于控诉种姓制度，揭露黑暗。刑讯场面过于血腥恐怖了。律师如圣人，据说这一人物是真实存在，仅仅6年时间就主持了96000起不公案件，打破阶级和不公，为无数被冤枉弱者找回正义。
受害者宁死不屈的硬气 妻子百折不挠的毅力
一位是入世后的出世，一位是出世后的入世，若世间不能按所学而活，不如顺性而活。疏狂狷介之士那个年代尚有退隐之路。兹山所在是归隐，是明心见性，亦是殊途同归。
好看，入世出世，值得回味，真为我们的文化而自豪，不过这个文化，我们自己不看重了……
极度震撼，直面苦难！把人性在体制引发的问题面前深刻显露！
如果我拿了钱，我的孩子问我：我们的钱是哪儿来的？的时候，我要怎么回答呢？告诉她这是打死你爸爸的人给我们的，所以他们没有受到惩罚吗？
用拉低众人双商的手段来衬托男主的伟光正，这不算捧杀？浪费了好题材
6.法治不昌当揭竿而起《剑客卡南》看的更爽，更适合现实的印度，毕竟杰伊比姆只有一个，而每一位‘贱民’手中的镰刀却是千千万的！
有点可惜，有的地方还是有开挂神片的影子，男主的塑造不是很饱满，同类型的《辩护人》更优秀一些。希望印度人民早日领悟一句话：打土豪，分田地
讳疾忌医会病入膏肓，早日敢于正视或还有治愈的希望
好像在看邻居的电影，但到处是我们自己的影子。好像在读过去的历史，其实讲的又是今天的故事。所有焦虑和挣扎的源头，不过是如何过好这一生。
对封建帝制，儒家思想的批判，韩国电影还是这样一骑绝尘。
剪辑版。考虑到前一阵的一印度女性拒绝一男的，那个男的自杀，那个女的被杀死（好像是被处死了）以及以前他们霸凌网暴老白男强吻的女演员，完全不想夸他们。不过好歹印度拍了这样的电影。倒是也很真实。这个人权律师竟然没有被暗杀
贱民努力追寻形而上学，士大夫饱受权力之苦追寻形而下学。贱民与士大夫，你是我师，我是你师。相互学习，取长补短。黑山兹山看山是山，看山不是山，看山还是山。对于绝大多数人来说，实用的学问才更值得追寻吧。实用的学问在哪里呢，在自然间，大山海间，在民间。而不是利用权力意志洗-脑的学问。不是为王-权服务的学问。「活成不断向上飞的鹤虽也不算坏事，但是即便身上沾满污水泥浆，也选择活得像兹山一样，虽外表看着黑暗，却生机勃勃自由自在，也未尝不是有意义的事啊。」
一流的剧本和表演。师徒互为对照。年轻的徒弟入仕为官后才懂人微力薄，老师教不会他的，经历把他教会了。无力改善民生，但学过的诗文印在心里，也斩断了同流合污的可能。实现不了经世致用的理想，却能在孤独清净的生活里守心守道。知识在儒学里、在科学里，也在兹山上大大小小的鱼类中。
