Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
并不是个人传记，这片名不是很恰当，可能这人名气大，能吸引人去看电影
3.5 做为一部电影真的就三星吧……律师演得也很一般。但是妻子的表演太好了，题材真实得让人时刻揪着心。
现实世界里拍这样一部也很不容易吧 演员的真实生活/种姓/部落是怎样的
全片正是一种周星驰叙事与一种现实叙事的反复激荡，正如阿娟一次次得到又失去、戴上又摘下的狮头，正如每个小人物都曾在脑海中发生过的挣扎。
世上只有一種英雄主義，就是在認清生活真相以後，依然熱愛生活。（這是一部好幾次哽住喉嚨。卻又不敢流淚的電影，粵語版好好睇）
【B－】一直反感当下主流3D动画中近乎走火入魔的拟真质感，也同样对港式励志喜剧的剧作套路无感。但在《雄狮少年》里，两者却在我的审美排斥下共同组成了另一种别样的存在，也就是现如今各种虚伪真人主旋律的轰炸下，我们竟然要在动画电影里才能找寻现实主义的表达。所以画面上的拟真追求有了落脚点，城市影像的介入实在是意外，缝隙中的朝日是全片高光所在。不过那些“高燃落泪”的评价仍然是可被计算的，但与其他纯粹消费题材的作品相比，本片高明之处便在于懂得收敛，知晓前方的真正壁垒所在。所以结局可以看作另一种《灌篮高手》，他们把梦留在了最高点，然后继续生活。
12.04点映，观感很不错啊，质感绝对是国产动画第一梯队的(不清楚是为了模仿胶片质感的噪点还是广东的热浪，有的地方看上挺“杂”)是那种热血运动番的套路故事，前半部分故事有点拖，但是后面节奏起来了就引人入胜了。鲜艳的色彩和击击入心的鼓声，视听盛宴来形容也毫不为过。用《今夜无人入睡》配上脚气，绝对是今年最恶趣味最好笑的片段之一。最后就是，收尾很漂亮，一点不拖泥带水，好评。(另外就是影片格式是2D而没有强行3D大好评)
完美诠释了什么叫：
为什么不能小眼睛呢？是不是也是被一些主流审美裹挟？ 我们的人生可能不会被这一次奋不顾身所改写，但是人生有这样一次奋不顾身，也会让人心不会死。
技术层面算目前国片顶级，但剧情和人设土鳖到无法直视，愿天堂没有全能美少女扶贫屌丝。
问:3万亿，17万亿，23万亿，三个以美元计价的经济体有何不同？
世界上任何地方都有黑暗，区别在于对待黑暗的态度。你以为藏着掖着别人就尊敬你？揭露了阴暗面别人就瞧不起？恐怕现实正好相反吧。敢于把顽疾和黑暗展示给世人，并指明是与非对与错，就这一点来讲印度就比中国强百倍和有希望。最后加上的一颗星完全是基于跟鸵鸟国对比的情绪化结果。
你能在一部动画片里看到工地，贫穷，也能看到理想和浪漫
电影本身拍摄手法一般，胜在真实事件改编&社会意义（种姓、阶级、贫富、金钱、权力），演技也不错。
但是剧组的发言和态度让我极度反感，做错了就要认，而不是用不知哪儿来的优越感来颠倒是非，艺术没有国界，但是艺术家有。
有一些类似题材的作品，大多会刻画主人公内心动摇，腹背受敌的一些为难处境，或者由漠不关心到奋力抗争的人物弧光。这部作品没有采用那种方式，就像超级英雄一样坚持正义。这可能会少一层深刻，但我觉得故事更加大快人心了。因为前面对受害者共情实在太深，多么善良的一个人，压抑半部电影的情感喷薄而出，自然痛快。
梅花桩上有虚设的高台，房间里有膨胀的大象，我爸没有医保，我友内卷到爆，少年们，我们该跳起来吗？
富强 民主 文明 和谐 自由 平等 公正 法治 爱国 敬业 诚信 友善
超乎预期，2021年院线最佳，本质框架上是一个咸鱼翻身，屌丝逆袭的星爷式励志故事，从故事方面来看，其实上并没有更多值得评价的地方。但它确实包装得很完美，建模场景还原真实，聚焦留守乡村少年，广府传统的舞狮文化接地气式还原，如果你是广东的影迷朋友，相信能够更明白我提到的这些点。其实我难以理解这样的好电影为什么在春节档 暑假档没有一席之地呢？不知道哪吒 孙悟空 姜子牙还能消费多久，多来几部像雄狮少年的国产动画不香吗？
