[Series Completion Plan] "007 Seven: Diamond Diamond"

This is the last 007 that Sean Connery starred in, and it is also the most boring one of the first seven I've seen. On the one hand, Sean Connery played several parts in a row (although the sixth part was skipped in the middle), which would cause people to be aesthetically tired, but more importantly, the script was perfunctory. Compared with the relatively exciting episodes, there is neither the tense plot setting in Rolling Thunder, nor the exotic setting in Thunder Valley, nor the emotional expression in The Queen’s Envoy. Not only is the plot mechanical, but the characters are also very pale. . At the same time, the storytelling ability of the director is slightly low, and the whole movie seems to be made up of broken scenes in series, and the taste is the same, so that he fell asleep several times during the filming process.

In this film, Dr. Q did not invent any new equipment for Bond, but made a lot of money on the casino slot machines with his self-made electronic magnetic controller. This technological gimmick is a diamond satellite developed by the villain, which is called an artifact. But even so, the villain still can't beat the bare-handed 007, especially after catching Bond several times, he didn't kill him immediately. Logically, it really doesn't make sense. In fact, similar situations are commonplace in many second-rate movies. When the villains catch the positive characters, they often don't kill them with one shot. Instead, they are locked up and not used as hostages. Eventually, the positive characters escape and ascend to heaven, and they are defeated. This kind of bridge is really speechless, and it also reflects the mediocrity of "Diamond" from another side.

    It's enough to tell the story well, the details are too much trouble. SC came back once, the lion opened his mouth and never saw him again! Bond girls are silly and cute~

    I think this one is a little better, close to the four-star appearance, far away from the version of Jason Bourne's two-wheeled sedan that has appeared here. awesome. And hovercraft
