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".
浦西封锁的第三天，也是清明节假的第一天，完全摆烂地打开《雄狮少年》，看完后哭得脑浆子疼。两条弹幕，一个说“屋漏偏逢连夜雨”，一个说“生活就是这样，辉煌过，还要继续下去”。再加上五条人、九连真人的调子一响起，整个遭不住啊。那头雄狮的脸都烂了半张，脚也浸了血，但他平生只是想要赢一次，告诉老天他可以主导一次命运。这是现实主义题材的一次温柔，也是一次成功的努力。
配乐：还ok，有地域特色
阿娟父母归来，他梦想“下山”，黯然离体验繁华都市的灰暗底色，独自忍受人间冷暖生活重担，狮头埋于杂物。他随清晨人群的醒来，敲醒心灵翩然起舞豁然开朗；比赛惊艳出场，气势十足斗狮，最后一跃不可逾越的擎天高山——那莫欺少年穷的奋勇与激越！
而是一个名叫钱德鲁的律师。
导演是个乐夏粉吗，从五条人到椅子乐团到九连真人又听了一遍。然而，还是想说处理的很高级：燃的很俗套，燃的也很真实。就像片尾，喜欢的女孩仍旧是别人的女朋友，生活还是日复一日地去工地搬砖。这不仅仅是一部关于舞狮的电影，这更是一部关于人生的电影：即便身处阴沟，也要仰望星空；就算身居陋室，也不要忘记你是一头雄狮。更何况，那还是一间推开窗户就可以看见东方明珠的陋室。所以少年已经用坚定的眼神做出了回答：他可以被生活打败，但永远不会向命运屈服。
当代中国电影的评价方式：有舞狮就是传统文化，有留守儿童就是现实题材，有鸡血鸡汤就是追求梦想，总结：这是一部结合传统文化讲述追求梦想的现实题材电影，但实际上，第一它缺乏舞狮的专业性，在动画的夸张手法中，我们几乎没有增加对舞狮的了解和兴趣。第二它又缺乏中国特色现实题材里面的社会话题性，这是它爆不起来的一个重要原因，第三鸡汤鸡血只有欲望和煽情，但是没有可能更为重要的人与人之间的感情戏，亲情，友情，爱情，哪怕是师徒情，一样没占，这又是爆不起来的一个原因，所以唯一能夸的地方也就是美术了，最后还被人说是辱hua，这片能票房高那它真需要一个奇迹了。
“尊重一个人的才能取决于他们使用它的目的”
在它之前，未有任何国产主流动画的主角，是个在工地睡下下铺，白天搬砖晚上还要去送外卖的少年。
3星全给画面，纹理真的做得太好了，狮头的须，飘动，逼真度自然度满分！还有舞狮时候的步伐都非常好看！但剧情是什么鬼？一个前度冠军无端端去一个乡下，送一个那么贵的狮头给一个陌生人？几个门外汉在一个已经荒废十几年的教练手下练了几个月就能夺冠？合理性已经全毁了，就靠打鸡血推进剧情！最无言是最后那一幕，硬就是要宣扬这种精神胜利~明知不行还要冲是燃，但把狮头挂上去那种虚荣太恶心！这个时代怎么还追求这种阿Q精神？还一堆人觉得激动。。。。。
这什么剧本，什么人物啊。 台词内心就全靠喊啊。
如果说“我命由我不由天”太过空泛，《雄狮少年》只是让你重新想起心中的鼓点。它讲的根本不是改变命运或实现梦想这些口号式的话题，因为输赢不重要，成功与否不重要，自身以外的价值评判体系不重要。主角的人生可能只有这一个高光时刻，之后和所有普通人一样打工为生活奔波。那又怎样，那个高光时刻足以照亮今后的漫长黑夜。

电影题材选的很好，全景以及一些镜头画面语言也都表现得不错，但歌声与人物的哭嚎总给我一种分裂感，无法深入其中。
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
结尾高明👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻梦想创造不了热血奇迹，只是让你短暂地发光，而后归于籍籍无名的平庸。但只要“开过光”，一个人终究会变得不同。
故事排布、人物设定就还蛮老套的，有些台词也是比较尴尬，但精神内核是拍一千遍都不过时的。最大的亮点还是太美了，广东村落和城市的气息、风物都抓的很准，拍的是乡土但不土，反而时髦的很，因为村落就是有脏乱的，不用矫饰，真实的天地田铺头市场原本就动人，看了非常思乡，一上来还是五条人哈哈。（小眼睛怎么会辱那什么华呢，最辱那什么华的就是现实本身啊，比如深究一下为什么少年人要和父母分开、父亲工伤补偿够吗社会安全网有兜底吗为什么需要一个少年出去拼死拼活、为什么劳工环境这么糟之类的问题，但可说吗也不能说啦嘻嘻不然电影都看不到呢
你可以有几个眯眯眼的角色，毕竟华人确实是小眼睛居多，可是你每个人物都是眯眯眼，Why？中国人里没有大眼睛吗？这也太stereotype了吧？
抖脚死党田埂骑楼咸鱼铺和大排档，石屎森林绿藤天桥屋顶远眺吊塔朝阳，前半部的日常喜剧梗确实生硬了点，但过硬的CG技术和后半部的现实刻画角色暴走，确实无愧当下国产动画之光；分明是传统文化自傲自强之作，却陷入匪夷所思的审美争议，当下的现实太过诡异
大义凛然，鞠躬尽瘁，简直是超级英雄电影。
第三幕让影片境界飞升。关于留守儿童的残酷现实与污泥少年的梦想之光激荡共振，融汇成了一股势不可挡的「气韵」。印象深刻的是一个不起眼的小细节。（女）阿娟带着男友来看舞狮大赛，她满眼是光；于男友，这只是一场看过即忘的比赛，意兴阑珊间拿起了手机。这组人物关系喻指了梦想-现实。为了生活，人总要妥协，将梦想抛却。这是大多数人要面对的「现实」。而在（男）阿娟奋战到底，要成为雄狮时，这种冲劲燃起了她心中的火。从一人擂鼓，到全场擂鼓，那声声鼓点，托起了（男/女）阿娟的梦想，托起了众人之梦想。原来，梦想是可以击败现实的，哪怕只有一瞬。影片的剪辑很棒，还有两处蒙太奇段落之所以触动人心，皆因扣住了这个立意。
