      The most artistic Bond girl

      The fresh and alternative 007 looks very similar to the characters in the literary film. There are also beautiful women, but because of the epidemic, all the passion scenes have been deleted. In the film, many places have been changed from Russia to Vienna. The scenery is beautiful. The heroine is a rare and highly educated artistic beauty, and it is a seductive work. In terms of the plot, although it seems that there are not many novel special effects and weapons, the grievances of Russia and...

      The Living Daylights

      The East and West are in a wonderful situation of tit-for-tat. Some people in KGB have developed a series of conspiracies for their own personal gain. First, Koskoff falsely "surrendered" to the West and stated that KGB was preparing to carry out a plan called "Spirit Flying Dragon" with the purpose of eliminating 00. Agents of the group, 007 suspected its motives, disguised assassinations, and found out that Koskoff and the arms dealers used the money for the purchase of arms to smuggle drugs....

      A 007 movie with real love

      "Life at Dawn" is the favorite one in the 007 series of movies, and Kara Milovy is also the favorite Bond girl. Thin, delicate appearance, bright eyes, childish forehead, slightly puckered full lips, who is it like? Audrey Hepburn.

      Of course, she is far less beautiful than Hepburn, but such a beautiful woman is unlikely to appear in 007 movies, because 007 movies show everyone a woman, not a goddess.

      In terms of character, Kara milovy is the same as her appearance, she is a...

      The most affectionate 007 meets the best Bond girl

      After serving in 007, the favorite is Timothy's version, which is affectionate and has weaknesses to make the character more plump.

      The Bang girl Kara in the play is actually not very beautiful, but it is the most memorable. The temperament of the peerless beauty is hard to surpass, and the rest of the Bang girl is beautiful and has no feeling. It is said that the screenshots of the stills are not intentional, and Kara has not caught many moving moments.

      As for the plot, 007's...

      The best and worst of Bond's dawn of life

      After watching the whole film, my personal feelings about this film are as follows:

      1. The fourth 007 Timothy Dalton took office. Among the six Bonds, Timothy is likely to be the best acting Bond. Timothy injected more of the emotional changes and psychology of the role into Bond. In the conversion, the audience saw an extremely realistic Bond who approached an ordinary person (Daniel also has this characteristic, but he emphasizes the tough side, Timothy's performance in both tough...

      Infiltrate while people practice, not bad. Qian Banni has been replaced, and OL looks much better. The intelligence officer is an idiot, always green 4 green 4 warm. The gist of this episode is that spies can't just obey orders, they have to make their own judgments. Don't play the part of the suspended animation. The diamonds are hidden in ice, which is used to refrigerate heart organs. Reflects the tragic situation of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Too many love...

      This is my least favorite 007. The plot of the whole film is fragmented, messy, without climax or ups and downs. Timothy Dalton, the lead actor, looks bitter and vengeful, and is succeeded by Brosnan's romantic suave and light weight. The whole film made me sleepy, but unfortunately there is no fast-forward button on the Android client of the mobile phone. The out-of-cabin fight at the end of the show is the only bright...

    Movie plot

    The East and West are in a wonderful situation of tit-for-tat. The British intelligence agent was assassinated while participating in an exercise in Gibraltar. General Koskoff ( played by Jeroen Krabbé ) , the leader of the Soviet intelligence agency, defected to the United Kingdom and appointed intelligence agent James Bond ( played by Timothy Dalton ) 007 to be responsible for protection. James Bond wounded the female cellist Kara Mi...

    Movie Highlights

    Timothy Dalton refused to use a stand-in when filming the Broto chase scene, and went to the battle to complete all the filming himself.
    Sam Neal, Mark Greenstreet, Antony Hamilton and Sean Bing are also candidates to play 007. Pierce Brosnan has a high voice, but he is busy shooting several TV shows and has no time to do it again. Christopher Lambert missed the corner of 007 because of his French accent.
    Two weeks after filming started,...

    Background creation

    On September 17, 1986, the film was shot in Gibraltar. Timothy Dutton quickly rushed to the filming scene of the film after finishing the shooting of "Rampaging Pretty Girl" and started working. The team led by the aerial stunts Voss and Jack Lombard completed the skydiving scene at the beginning of the film in Gibraltar, and then they completed the duel stunt on the transport plane in the United States. The first camera crew went on...

    Evaluation action

    In this film, Timothy Dalton portrays a rough, deep, and calm agent who can hold the camera well and performs very well in serious scenes. But the downside is that he lacks a sense of humor. The exotic sceneries and action scenes of the film are very attractive, but the Bond girls seem to be somewhat vases. In addition, the performance of the villain in this movie is also disappointing. On the whole, the film does not have a great Bond...

      Leonid Pushkin: You are professional. You do not kill without reason.

      James Bond: 2 of our men are dead. Koskov's named you. Why should I disobey my orders?

      Leonid Pushkin: I am in the dark as much as you. It is a question of trust. Who do you believe? Koskov, or me?

      James Bond: If I trusted Koskov we wouldn't be talking. But as long as you're alive, we'll never know what he's up to.

      Leonid Pushkin: [Slowly] Then I must die.
