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.
60后美国人的童年记忆，和那个觉得自己无所不能，能摘星辰的童年。
真人拍摄之后的动画化 在视觉上的观感很奇妙 不同于一般的动画 人物面部尽管简单 却有生动表情 林卡斯特对自身童年的又一次回溯 幽默 轻快 真诚 很治愈 音乐也不错
虚拟的主角的登月经历和现实中的登月交叉，有一种在梦中的感觉。处在美国六十年代的童年生活比二十一世纪初的我的童年要精彩得多，是真的会很羡慕。
虽然这部电影是关于美国六十年代的怀旧片，但让我无比亲切的是里面那些童年锁事勾起我这个中国八十后的很多回忆。尤其是有很多孩子的家庭，那时一家人围着黑白电视，跟家人邻里保持着亲密的的关系。怀念以前，真的很美好。
《阿波罗 10 号半：我要上太空》结合两种视角，相辅相成地讲述了 1969 年夏天人类首次登月的故事，影片既跟随宇航员及任务控制中心庆祝胜利时刻，也通过一名孩子的眼睛去见证历史，这个孩子在德州休斯敦长大，并有属于他自己的太空梦想。《阿波罗 10 号半：我要上太空》的灵感来自获奥斯卡提名的电影人理查德·林克莱特本人的生活，是对 20 世纪 60 年代美国生活的真实写照，这既是一部成长故事，也是一部社评片，更是一场天外大冒险。
旁白娓娓道来理查德·林克莱特的美妙台词，像一部精彩的童年回忆录，我被深深迷住了
这是一个拥有情怀的，五彩斑斓的，写给自己童年的情书。他表达了对那个年代生活的休斯敦孩子内心的渴望，一个个有趣的小细节小故事都展现出了爱。但是绚烂的糖果们依旧构不成一道正餐。开局很吸引人，但整个电影的前一个小时，这些细碎的回忆。实在是不值得这些篇幅，这表达方式格局太小了。小到好像两个中年人喝多了在聊自己的儿童时代一样，在这样的时代大背景下，一个少年怀着对航天伟大的幻象，度过了这个不寻常的夏天，这确实很美好，但整部电影的表达与诉说。仿佛在告诉我，这一切都与你们观众无关。
没太明白，上太空那人说话嘴不动，有什么含义吗
被猝不及防的杀戮场面震撼。
然后持续
与其说是回到60年代，不如说是让所有人重返童年。房前草坪上无忧无虑地嬉戏，父母职业在伙伴间的攀比，坐在电影院里刷过漫长的夏季，黑白的电视机突然仿佛涂上彩色的画笔，一盘盘精致的食物勾起了满满的食欲。那些可爱的画面里都是曾经的自己。
如果能由第三方执导，站在客观公正的立场，来真实的反映地区冲突的根源，才能被国际社会所接受！那位民兵组织头目，少年时拍过《自己去看》吧。
各个时代有各个时代的背景
看到奶奶带孙子孙女去看音乐之声竟然泪目，有点奇怪
我怀疑卢卡这个角色是在映射某个真实存在的人物 一个被阿富汗退役老兵联盟除名的退伍军人 他在冲突爆发后加入了乌克兰右翼民团并且犯下了战争罪行 和片子里的角色多少有几分相似
对照看了乌克兰的《机器人：英雄不会死》，乌东地区同一事件的不同版本，本片更胜一筹，淋漓尽致的展现了乌军与亚速营的反人类暴行。
实在太无聊，起码三分之二都在怀旧陈述想当年，画风个人还是能够接受，就是看得昏昏入睡，完全让人无法代入和觉得有趣...
好看的，个人蛮喜欢这种絮絮叨叨的说话方式，特别生动
评论有说联合国反对美化纳粹是假新闻。还用所谓信息茧房来形容。笑死。怪不得中央要约谈db，这么多明明显显的50w
他们那个年代的童年，丰富多彩，
