The wedge of "The Man with the Golden Gun" is still very attractive. It uses a short but complete plot to outline the image of a mysterious and weird man with the Golden Gun, who can be called a strong enemy of "Bond". However, after that, the tune of the film basically turned to comedy. It can be said that it is the most funny episode of the first nine films. It may even be considered as a comedy by ignoring the subject matter of its spy film. In this regard, compared to the British humor of Sean Connery, the former "Bond" actor, Roger Moore's unrestrained and unrestrained personality seems to be more suitable for such an American-style comedy mode.

Confucius said: "It's difficult to raise only women and villains." This sentence has also been verified in this film. A woman (Bond girl) and a villain (dwarf) caused 007 a headache. The "Bond Girl" in this episode is the one with the most grassroots taste so far. It is neither beautiful nor temperament, but has a silly and lovely vibe, and has repeatedly given "Bond" a disservice. , Added a lot of chaos, it is ridiculous. The dwarfs under the Golden Gunners are not even more fuel-efficient lamps. They are shrewd and scheming. They cause more trouble to the "Bond" than the Golden Gunners. In this game, there is also the American Fat Sheriff who appeared in the last episode, and there are more scenes. I don't know if it will become a resident character.

In addition, the role of the Golden Gun Man is also very distinctive. The marksmanship is superb, polite, and a little weird hobby. A set of organs and dolls are set up in the house, and he likes to trick his opponents first and then shoot them again. Unexpectedly, in the end, he reaped the consequences and let "Bond" use the doll to deceive himself. It is really NO ZUO NO DIE.

Finally, mention the "solar energy" in the film. The world energy crisis broke out in the early 1970s, which made some people of insight realize the need to change the existing energy structure, and renewed the upsurge in the development and utilization of solar energy. This upsurge continued until the oil price dropped in the 1980s and then gradually subsided. . This element can be added to the original novel written in 1964, indicating that the author Ian Fleming is still quite forward-conscious.

    Young Saruman! It is indeed the most Nb villain in the 007 series, and it is indeed vividly portrayed. Miss Goodnight is so brainless...
