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".
睡着了一会儿，确实只有打打打。CE打扮成钢铁侠他爹的样子一下没认出来，还是听声音才认出来的。虽然是肯化前的高司令，这部也不太帅。
高司令被拷在长凳上你有火箭筒你不炸他你炸车干嘛！？
罗素兄弟的超燃动作片，美队演了个做作的反派其演技堪比“美版谢霆锋”
三星的故事，可是谁能拒绝不穿衣服的高司令啊~
惊天大阴谋为假，拯救小女孩才是真，但是阴谋展示过于简单，也就让选择救小女孩没有了重量。动作设计也没什么亮点，大飞机，欧洲城市，古堡，都是玩剩下的。学到一个新单词：bromance ！基友情！
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
3.5-4星。感觉还是想走谍影重重的路线，节奏有点奇怪，各个章节像是粘贴一起的城市宣传ppt，除了动作戏非常连贯。里面还玩了西西弗斯的梗，用意略牵强。ChrisEvans连演psychopath都那么有喜感呢，最后一对一的打戏笑死我了，倒豆豆鞋里的土是什么鬼啊。。。
场面很大，但不知道为啥就是看的不爽。逻辑漏洞很多。six形象塑造感觉差口气，罗伊这个变态也变态的差口气，女特工也是莫名其妙就帮着six，总体来说就是啥啥都沾点边，但啥啥都差口气。怪怪的
只能说有两亿美元投入的电影确实有两亿美元的视觉效果和高级的视听体验，但如此贫瘠、老套、毫无惊喜可言的文本实在不值得两亿的投入。继《谢里》后罗素兄弟又一次展示了自己“过人”的导演能力。
比网飞一般自制还是好一些的，开场的烟花戏打斗很漂亮，布拉格的电车戏也算是相当有诚意了，高潮打美队的设计差点意思，可能美队太贵了，打美队就够了
It seems that Mr. Evans is very eager to shake off the stereotypical role of Captain American. Have to say he does make a convincing villain.
就这破剧本是怎么拿到2个亿投资和高司令+美队的？
不知道为啥，最近看的同类型的片子全是这个尿性，美帝的编剧不给涨工资了？累
地点超过三个就没法看定律。学到了很多地名。
从头打到尾，打得比较爽，场面也看得出来花了大价钱。但是就没看出来这个本子好在哪儿需要这么大的投资。
瞥见黑幕特工危，街头乱战瓦砾堆。外包小哥瞎指挥，最后身丧把锅背
故事太次，政悚角力阴谋阳谋的叙事难度其实远低于电影叙事想象，所以用电影实现当代政治从全局到细节的复杂性，肯定要紧跟诸如全世界围剿土等时髦时事才行，所谓炸裂预算+好莱坞牛逼技术+超线大咖+新新平台支持下的“大片”，只满足于美学偏好和视听，还是离真正意义上的政治先锋电影太远。为我安娜女神加一星，基本只要出现了眼睛就挪不开......
害行啊，不难看。盲猜被诟病的原因是因为太多明显的融梗？
罗素老贼彻底吹几把了，原形毕露，动作戏比周更Porno还要“例行公事”，莫得灵魂。高司令把“缺钱”全演在脸上了，其他卡司一个个几乎全在摆烂。剧情更是无聊和无厘头，麦高芬（u盘主线）居然失踪了近一个小时才想起来？
罗素兄弟确实掌握了超英类型片的精髓，一个杰森伯恩的故事拍出了超英的感觉，但影片一直在好看和不好看之间反复横跳，大量不必要的航拍镜头和无趣的喜剧桥段，以及屏幕上已经看腻的经典反派、杀手形象，更要命的是有一个一点都不爽的结局。if you wanna make a sequel, at least make the first one decent.
