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.
一半是浪漫，一半是现实。展现出了每一对恋人都要经历的方方面面。相较于撒糖戏，更偏爱现实部分，将生活中的一地鸡毛抖落出来了，真实、扎心。结构挺耐人寻味，以跨年夜始，以跨年夜终，那些争吵、分歧等困境被温暖包裹着，真心能融化一切。深情不变，生活向前。
2.5星吧，一会儿瞎一会儿神的，剧情老套，安志杰终于当回男一
男人一任何借口拖延结婚都是为了不和眼前的女人结婚，一旦有机会，他就会甩掉眼前人，跟新的女人在一起。
吴靖萱 还是令人影响深刻，其他的我只能说是真特么的扯淡，太脸谱化了。
离谱的1b。估计警匪片本子不好写了，验dna就知道是不是了都不验。
从头到尾没有任何狗血，感受到了导演在用心与观众交流的方式。影片大多都是日常恋爱二三事，恰好最近因为年底工作忙碌和男友吵了不少架，很多细节都能让人感同身受。打工族的爱情可能因为出租房发场大水却没人可以请假收拾而分崩离析，却也可以因“相识于微时”而将彼此牵系得更紧密，选择跨年来看这部电影果然没错，无论多难，感谢身边人的陪伴和坚持，新年快乐。
不难看，甚至前半段还真的挺甜的，但是细究起来逻辑很有问题，严谨面对相亲男的女主角轻易就和男主角坠入爱河，第一晚就带回家有够扯，没几天就住在一起，还养了狗，男主角创业产生的矛盾因为时长篇幅也被缩得不够真实，最后还居然给创成功了又复合了，看的时候一直觉得文不对题的剧情在最后居然圆了起来，以年为单位，因为男女主角就真的只在一起一年了，还真的挺贴题的，话说杨玏演的角色和三十而已完全反过来，但是演技真的被毛晓彤压着打，不过这剧情真的很戳我的心.......太感同身受了。PS:原本一年之痒的名字更适合本片。
作为动作网大合格了。如果能搞细一点会更好看。后面有片花。硬桥硬马的动作片就是好看
面对爱情 ，电影难得的地方在于并没有敷衍了事，而是试图诠释男女在感情中如何去爱，但遗憾的是不论是过犹不及的煽情，还是草草收场的结局，都可见电影并无力真正去构建属于自己的内核，整体看来这不过是一场特供跨年的应景之作。
好悬没给我尬死。。。纯套路电影：先是惊鸿一瞥一见钟情，然后就意外偶遇接触，再然后主角一方做了些什么触及另一方内心深处的阴影/过去，然后是甜甜蜜蜜，接着就吵吵闹闹分手就此别过，最后过了一段时间就重逢和好。。。剧情还真是没有哪怕一点是可以吸引观众继续看下去的，观众都不用思考，因为片子是完全机械化地推进剧情，没有一点波澜起伏，哪怕是最低级的转折都没有。剧情白瞎演员的演技，完全就是一个加长版的PPT式MV。故事很完整，并且故事的每个点都给你带到了，但是没重点。就这种剧本，我都能给你量产！
很好一部片子拳拳到肉的安志杰 女主角比较出彩利用安志杰杀掉想杀的人 救女儿有点像孤胆特工又不太像太厉害了 盲人大战牛逼
这部电影蛮精彩的，很多动作场景蛮有新意的。
剧情老套，设定雷人，主角要不是盲人会更好，两星给电影，一星半给安志杰，半星给杨杏
#2022.01#今年第一部，和一对情侣去的，简直惨不忍睹，刻意虚伪，当代爱情价值观就被抖音玩坏了，还有，说好的前任都是陌生人呢？一顿火锅儿？
今年网络电影最佳的刑侦枪战动作警匪片，比很多线上的动作警匪电影强太多了，经费在燃烧，全程无尿点。演员换成郭达救女或者尼桑救女评分肯定不会差，大概是因为这是国产吧。
刷新了我对爱情片的又一认知，原来十分钟就可以让两人在一起。爱情之间的矛盾也不狗血，抓住了情侣之间非常重要的一个矛盾。最后结尾有些俗套了，问题的根源并没有解决，男主事业成功了难道才是问题的解决方式吗？但是理解市场需要，比上一次看《你的婚礼》好很多。这个档期不错的选择了。
动作场面真的是拳拳到肉，故事还行，属于网大电影的上乘之作，网络上映可惜了，其实完全可以院线上映，强过一般电影
从土里刨出来的爱情故事，女的不要钱要陪伴，男的就想挣钱满足女的，《我要我们在一起》也是这个模式，但人物就更具血肉，职场、生活和奋斗更具烟火气。人家还以be结尾控诉了一下房价和阶层固化，《以年》只有想当然。
因工作忙临时出差不能去旅游吵架，因家里水管爆了、工作忙没时间拖干净吵架，因工作忙没时间带宠物狗看兽医吵架，因工作忙要陪投资人喝酒而且跟投资经理有暧昧关系吵架… 男主的工作忙跟我们打工人还不太一样，打工人被逼急了大不了辞职不干，这个男主是创业合伙人，自己已经投进去50万元资金，属于老板级别的工作忙，看起来远比打工人更心酸。5.0星，年度最佳，以年为单位，见证中国崛起，见证中国电影崛起。
大部分爱情片，爱情都是一个短时间的状态，一见钟情时的浓情蜜意，失恋时的撕心裂肺。而《以年》以一种更现实的，更接近爱情的角度切入，从热烈到冷淡，男女之间的爱情会怎么度过这个尴尬期。在当代，两个人之间有很多的阻力，原生家庭、工作、观念的不同，最关键的是，大部分人经历的都是速食爱情，从见面到爱上，只需一天，电影展现了一场爱情图鉴，引人深思。但是，电影也是温柔的，男女主角在跨年夜发生的事证明，爱情终究是浪漫的
