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".
《乘风》牺牲了小家，成全了大家，换来了乘风；《诗》两任父亲，坚强母亲，一首好诗；《鸭先知》去做那一只最先下水的鸭子；《少年行》在试错中成长
20211004 就对徐峥这一段有感觉，其他都一般，沈腾那段像红旗广告，电量持久！总体徐峥>其他三位=一样！🇨🇳
章（3.5）>徐（3）>吴（2）>沈（0.1）。吴京选了红色套路，直接放弃文戏表达，文戏透着尴尬。而大场面桥段的商业片调度又很差，特别是结局已经沦为抗日神剧了。章子怡桥段是娴熟的，但是一部短片几乎有长片的煽情时长，挺腻的。特别是章子怡对自己的太过自信，她本人的煽情特写实在太多了，演的不差，但多少有点大材小用。陈道明的出场实在是没必要，气场太大，跟前面是脱离的。徐峥把韦斯·安德森的构图和滤镜学得像模像样，但文戏充满了徐峥过分自信的上海人的拧巴，喜剧气氛被搞得非常过，前半段喧闹的想按下静音键。故事的逻辑丰富却充满虚假感，戏谑感过了就丧失了韦斯·安德森的厚重和观感清透的幽默。徐峥真的不是能力的问题，但这种最讨嫌。没看到沈腾段之前我是没想到还能比吴京更差，比徐峥更油腻，一己之力把这部四合一从3星拖到2星的。
我变身人间水龙头哭的稀里哗啦 最爱徐峥的《鸭先知》 最感动章子怡的《诗》 吴京的《乘风》一般，但题材提升了很多好感，最后举旗很像《战狼》 最失望的是沈腾的《少年行》，故事有点老套，可惜了沈马组合。
全部星星都给徐峥，和其他三个篇章的气质都不一样，尽管只是低仿韦斯安德森。章子怡没有那么好，吴京沈腾完全看不下去
开心麻花依旧搞笑；徐峥的卖酒很怀旧，特别看到一些老广告，会心一笑；章子怡的火箭上天像一首叙事诗，不好看但扎心；吴京的骑兵抗日最没意思，他属于故事讲不出逻辑和深度，但靠场面撑的，立场上始终正能量而已。最亮眼的是片尾曲，王菲的嗓音是最迷人的，没有之一。
剧情套路都太经典了，不过看看还是没问题的。
后两个真的都很拉，《乘风》与一众抗战主旋律毫无二致，如果说这个片段是《长津湖》里面的大概所有人都相信吧，拍摄手法和水平几乎可以忽略不计。《少年行》就是一个笑话（双层含义上的。
章子怡=徐峥＞沈腾＞吴京
(7+)除了吴京的第一部分以外都还不错，徐峥的鸭先知高于预期，寓教于乐大法好，2019-2021国庆三部曲，分别标记了两星三星四星，也是一件很有意思的事情
开心麻花的《少年行》，二星。
། – _ – །确实，不行，拍得。2和3比较喜欢，1我能说，拍得很假吗？第四个完全不OK。为什么大家这么喜欢自导自演，请问要怎么自导自演，迷惑？
《诗》和《鸭先知》还行，但是也只是在这里面对比起来还行。因为吴京那个根本看不下去。
＊4少年行，科技，机器人沈腾＆单亲少年
现在的献礼电影真的越来越不好看了。作为《我的》系列第三部也是最差的一部，在熟识那段历史的我看来，四个导演都有各自的缺憾。《乘风》节奏大硬伤，情节大硬伤（大半夜的在眼前放了信号弹，鬼子却撤了？）《诗》表演痕迹过重，缺乏重点，形也散了，神也散了，为煽情而煽情难以得到共鸣。《鸭先知》典型徐峥套路化产品，形浮于表严重，缺少深度挖掘。《少年行》更是近年国人喜欢的「小品式电影」（也可以说是二人转式电影），看个开头基本就知道机器人是他儿子长大后造出来的了，一点也没有惊喜。不过也有值得夸奖一下的点，吴京的平行空间剪辑，章子怡开篇的长镜头都还不错。演员的话夸一下吴磊，他是真拼。至于其它的，没了。
吴京真的是一个特别好的战争片导演，运镜，氛围感都拿捏熟练，杀死日本鬼子指挥官时由上往下的视角犹如新中国藐视着日本帝国主义的侵略，不可侵犯。最后的人马合一的马儿扬蹄镜头更给了人振奋向前，展望新中国的无限可能
告诉你山川大河/日升月落/光荣和梦想/挫折与悲伤/
将亲情放在不同时空承受不同命题，却愈显其动人面
第一条样板戏；第二条散文诗；第四条麻花独角戏。就《鸭先知》还可以。
整体来说不如我和我的祖国好。
