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.
讲真，要不是高司令，肯定不会看这个片子，罗素兄弟虽然嘴很硬，但是真的一点才华都没有
动作打斗部分流畅，女主战力设定终于可以独当一面，好评。除此以外，这部片子其他的所有部分都恶心到我了，人物性格设定（男主和反派）、剧情设定、主要矛盾设定、剪辑节奏转场，以及无处不在的美国政治正确，是真的恶心。
网飞量产型垃圾，你拍两男神过家家真人秀都比这个有意义
两星给的是K Joi重聚 古巴美人也能胜任搏斗场面太大开眼界
还真的是烂，网飞真的是……不过看高司令和美队干架也还挺好的哈哈哈哈，动作戏确实很流畅，布拉格大战看得我不禁卧槽，不要破坏这么美的地方啊心疼。以及结尾用了black keys新歌，算是惊喜了，加一星！
这个被招募进来的六号，一次刺杀四号的任务中发现机构秘密，从决定报复的开始，到解救领导侄女的结束，故事就没有停止过战斗，全程动作不止，小场面无数，大场面印象里有飞往欧洲的货机坠机和布拉格街战，又在数个城市辗转拍摄，特工片看的过瘾，好不容易有一个安静的下午，不错的选择。
这剧情居然有原著小说就离谱，还是挺爆米花的，每次看到安娜·德·阿玛斯我就想去重温敲敲门跟夜班服务员的经典镜头
无名特工 老六 开挂干美队。场面做的挺好。但凡是肉搏都透露着不可信。欧洲重武器遍地，rpg漫天遍野，反派三人是发小，而且这种典型把大boss留给下部的做法。无论如何有点下三滥。
飞机坠毁戏与布拉格街头大战戏很棒，该砸钱的地方就猛砸，其余文戏就自动忽略吧，安娜如果有更多戏份就好了。
这钱怕不是都赔给了维也纳市政府了吧
连奇观都没有的动作片应该怎么归类？演员阵容都快对标007了，但是制作思路停留在网大，糟践资源和钱。你说他拍成了一坨说不过去，但拼了老命揉合了好一堆经典动作电影的剧情元素和梗也拍不出点奇观，不如关掉你的网页。
三星半：要他执法、还要他杀人如麻，让他牺牲、还让他交付灵魂。选择让谁死去，却无法保证如何过好人生；甘愿身陷囚笼，就能够解开贪婪逐欲的绳结。视人命如蝼蚁，便只能坠入虚妄的虫洞；为女孩而搏命，延续了冷面杀手优良的传统。生命进入倒数，依旧可以手握致命的引线，无法优雅老去，就去引爆对抗世界的决心。这世界太多灰色地带，重要的是记得自己为何而来。
Russo兄弟的个人色彩还是能感受到的，但在这类型的间谍动作领域上，The Gray Man能留下深刻印象的场面其实并不多，在James Bond、Mission: Impossible、John Wick之类的同题材的佼佼者面前，The Gray Man只能当做是某个周末的一场好电影。
剧情也太老掉牙了，完全无法让人去care的那种老掉牙和程式化，下一步该怎么发展完全就能猜到。网飞现在狂掉订阅就是成年累月疯狂投这种烂项目的后果。
罗素兄弟怎么也开始滥用起无人机了，这是跟迈克尔·贝新学来的吗，实话实说就这个节奏还不如爆炸贝的《鬼影特攻》来的爽。有几场打戏是不错，电车的和城堡的其实都行，但最后那个一对一单挑多少有点简单粗暴了。
电影工业高度发达了就开始生产流水线垃圾了是吧
追车枪战爆破戏踏平东欧，爆米花爽片看着玩就行了。复联后美队只想演反派，自从芭比片场照放出后再看到高司令就想笑😂
一开始我以为 银翼杀手K和人工智能Joi走进现实了 然后各种熟悉的特工类型片味道 以及美队仿佛用力过猛地想要摆脱熟知的荧幕形象 努力演出一个留希特勒同款小胡子的恶人
又一部由碎片妆点的非电影，摄影机截取了种种图景却根本没有在拍，干瘪的移动火柴人根本称不上角色。网飞，烂片的神
多加一星给高司令。花费这么多的时间和金钱，拍成这样的烂片，毫无意义，浪费我129分钟
