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.
emmmmmm……我是连看了8集美剧吗……还是饭制……
但当尘埃落定，这一切似乎都不重要了，这部《正义联盟》是一群人的信念，一种导演的执念，更是一位父亲对女儿，深沉浓重的思念——
It's what it is. An unabridged but also unnecessary version with too much redundant detail.
如果说院线版是华莱士，扎版也只不过是KFC金拱门而已……内容虽然多了很多，但可能年纪大了，看不得泛滥的柔光滤镜。话说达克赛德真的没有紫薯精可爱呢，连跟班都立不起来~21/03/18 HD 1080P
四星给影片本身，加一星给整个事件，导演历经波折最后打脸成功，真是出了口恶气，本身都值得拍成电影。
吹爆了，扎导永远的神，各方面超过《守望者》，只能证明，我们四年以来的坚持，全是正确的，为了电影，为了DC，四年值了。
实事求是深度上与《守望者》云泥之别。
4个小时啊，真的好长！虽说食不厌精脍不厌细，前期这慢镜头也太多了。总体来说气氛营造和人物塑造都有提升，最后的大战也很好看。不过超人展现的实力太强了真的让其他角色的努力看起来极无用。就像孙悟空本来可以带着唐僧两分钟飞到西天，非要一步步慢慢走。过程自然是好看的，西游记还可以说是为了磨练心性，这里就是看了个寂寞。我真心爱现在的每一个选角，尤其要数神奇女侠和小丑。另：每次看亚马逊女战士作战总会感慨，多么美好的肉体，多么美好的脸，怎么就偏要用冷兵器对抗魔法攻击呢，再勇敢也是白搭啊。能不能考虑跟隔壁黑豹学学科技立国？
怀疑我自己出了什么问题，因为并感觉不到哪里好
不是说这部电影没有瑕疵，但是它存在的意义深远
比电影院的好看点，但是放倒电影院里面也不会有高分，一共4小时，至少1小时无用的剧情，很多特效一直慢放毫无必要，有些文戏也非常的枯燥。
说导剪版又有如何高的里程碑造诣倒也是不必，无非也仅是1.33:1的讨喜画幅，与古铜质感下扎式美学搭配超英题材后的奇妙化学反应，再有比巴卜泡泡糖般恶心反胃的院线版在前垫底，扎导的审美情趣与叙事能力便更加突出又惹人喜爱，而这场大戏最精彩的部分，必然是戏剧以外导演的艺术执着以及粉丝与大厂巨贾间博弈的故事，这或许能给华纳更或许能给全球各国电影厂商高层们上上一课
全国多个城市的粉丝都举行了线下团体观影，我也有幸成为了其中的一员。
别扯什么时间太长，某些电影原计划还不是拍一部，因为超时了又舍不得删就把一部拆成两部卖，隔一年上映赚你两份钱，你就屁颠屁颠上赶着去跪舔，人家一部给你放出来，你还逼逼赖赖嫌人家时间太长？
终于2倍速拉完了，又糊又暗的滤镜让除了大本之外全员变丑，这动作戏和摄影水平的样片拿去MEN家应聘GV导演怕是都没人敢要。感谢剧场版尾灯对片子做了高度精简，把主线情节保留，删了一堆有的没的垃圾慢镜头和乐色角色，好多镜头恨不得4倍速放都不嫌赶。除了几个low段子，尾灯简直是在升华这部片子。很多之前被扎斯林骂到死的镜头最后是渣屎自己出品，谁不说一句小丑竟是他自己。助眠利器，应该申请医学专利。#导剪运动最大受益者竟是乔斯韦登#
这部电影的最后部分，还是留下了许多铺垫的，希望还能有扎克施耐德导演的后续影片出现。而最后维克多父亲对儿子的一番话，也寄托了扎导对逝去女儿的款款深情。
这就是正义联盟应该有的样子，当然院线不可能上四个小时的版本。zack拍的时候 在只有超人有单独电影的前提下，能做到里边每个人物都有光彩且人物丰满，这就很厉害了，DC电影就应该照这个路线拍下去，前面三小时跟之前的院线版故事发展路线一样，但逻辑更清晰，故事更丰满，人物更严肃，画面更精美，尤其是反派荒原狼的塑造，尤其是darkseid的露脸，只是这样就值得四星的，厉害的是最后的一小时，给满分都不为过，闪电侠最后的逆转加上梦魇末日线的提及，这个太牛逼了，如果能拍就厉害了。末日线就是海王和神奇女侠被darkseid杀了，超人黑化被控制，蝙蝠侠爱上露易丝，后者更是有了前者的孩子....
蝙蝠寻找正义的影子，罪人等候黑暗的原谅。神女点燃历史的火种，人类守望英雄的回归。用坚不可摧的身躯对抗深入骨血的伤痛，用来去如电的速度逆转暗无天日的轮回。穿越千年的杀戮与恐惧，即将卷土重来。拼死一搏的勇气与坚韧，终将力挽狂澜。这本该是一场正义史诗的盛大启程，却成为英雄传说的最后告别。在故事深度和故事性上被《守望者》吊打，但依然值得五星，为什么？因为如果不是华纳瘦驴拉硬屎，非要在推出英雄个人电影之前先一步推出正义联盟，这部电影一定不会是这样。不必呈现英雄身世，会有更多的时间来刻画反派，而不至于让荒原狼的塑造如此单薄。但即便在如此苛刻的剧作环境下，扎导还是用最圆满的方式完成了这部作品，respect！看着黑白色的海报，心里一阵阵的叹息：世界不欢迎你的黑暗，因为它本身足够黑暗。再会，扎导。再会，正义联盟。
到现在已经有这么多导剪例子了，请以后雇佣扎导的人，能尽量放手让扎导去干吧，别再搞什么院线扑街，导剪赚口碑的事了。。。
小男孩史詩，孩子什麼都可以辦得到的omnipotent(Flash的救美趣味和跑出個未來/過去、Cyborg父造哪吒「只要你要可以毀天滅地」、Bat「弱/強的只剩下錢(和阿福)」的美金戰士)，孩子的哭唧唧和羞怯(超人的神子重生之淚，甚至steppenwolf含羞草般金屬盔甲下表示禮貌敬意的赤裸羊男姿態「為了主人我要奪回世界」)，小男孩孺慕、嫉妒、仇恨、服從、超越父親(神)及其遺物遺願.....可以說查克史奈德的指環，但是逆(Reversed)指環的「愛與勇氣與希望」，所以不是先合再背叛，而是近乎《Sucker Punch》那種孤兒幻想，從絕緣絕愛的《暴風雨》世界找到不破碎的心，不孤立的生存方式。父（神）與子（人）在超哥與阿蝙也是虐戀：叫醒你的是我你怎麼捨得讓我難過。破碎錄音機修復、覆水可收也像點石成金的作者黃金之心（或是呼應結尾的噩夢，又是黃金體驗鎮魂曲？）。
