[BesTv] I accidentally came across this movie four years ago on TV, and I was deeply attracted after watching it a few times. The rich retro style of painting, the classic European historical buildings, and the orthodox male and female protagonists, all understand my heart! Coupled with the narrative rhythm of rising clouds and flowing water, the right humorous bridge, and the impressive background music that blends in with the plot, it really feels like seeing each other too late.
As for the so-called "rot" and "base" that some netizens are pondering about, I really haven't seen it. The two male protagonists are clearly straight steel men who are fake and exchanged, okay? The occasional bickering, dazzling skills, and tit-for-tat confrontation are at most just a contest between the leaders of their respective camps out of self-esteem and competitiveness. Mutual help in an emergency is a rational move to accomplish a common task, and the final reconciliation is the mutual sympathy between two people with integrity in nature under the brilliance of human nature. This is also one of the reasons why I like this movie, it is joking but not exaggerated, and the characters are in a positive tone.
I was even touched by the lingering affection between the Soviet agent Ilya and the car repair girl Gaby. Although the girl's flirting with the big hairy bear was a little inexplicable at first, but fortunately, both of them have a sincere and innocent face, and both have tender and affectionate eyes that I can see pity, yes, and Pushuang Pushuang Xiao Fan-like thick eyelashes. So when the two looked at each other, the surging emotions seemed to flow out of the screen and into the hearts of the audience, which made people very willing to make up countless reasons for their relationship. The background music called "The Unfinished Kiss" can always be played quietly at the right time. It feels a little cautious and tiptoe. The restrained and weird tune is full of emotions, which not only fits the relaxed style of the film, but also serves as the male and female lead. The feelings played a lot of fueling effect.
I saw that many netizens commented that the Soviet agents were slow. Do dull people shake two fists to make girls guess about gifts? Will a dull person reply "I am in his opinion! I am also for this task" when asked by a girl "You are not my fiancé"? Would a sluggish person warm their hands before checking a bug tied to a girl's leg and say "try not to get lost" with a slightly smug smile? Would a dull person immediately reassure a girl after sensing her fear and say "I'll be close by"? Where is this dull big hairy bear, he is clearly a sensitive and delicate love story boy with emotional intelligence online! ^_^
In the end, Gaby wanted to return the ring to Ilya, and Ilya put the ring back on her, saying that it would be kept as a souvenir, and that she could always follow her (another example of a love story boy). Afterwards, Ilya received a call from her superior, and Gaby avoided it wisely, waved goodbye silently, and turned to leave. At that moment, it made people feel melancholy, regretful, and lamented why a lover can't become a family - even a kiss can't be completed. However, thinking that these two people who were originally shackled by various shackles still revealed their true feelings to each other, even if it was only for a few seconds, this should give us comfort and hope for the warmth of human nature. Against the background of the Cold War set in the film, in the plot of intrigue, and in the contrast of the romantic American agents, the emotional line between the Soviet agent and the girl who repaired the car is like a clear flow, washing away the dust and moisturizing people's hearts. Compared with the overall playful and brisk style of the film, the narrative tone of the two emotional interaction scenes is mostly serious and affectionate, which also provides an emotional foothold for the whole film without appearing too frivolous.
I have to mention that there are also two car chase scenes. The former took place on the dark and cramped streets of East Germany. The two male protagonists fought wits and courage, and the shooting was full of fun. The latter is two off-road vehicles and a motorcycle shuttle through the open and lush southern European mountains. In the pursuit, sometimes it is a panoramic view from overhead, with a panoramic view of the mountains and the sea, and the atmosphere is magnificent; The screen is switched freely, with a degree of relaxation, coupled with the wonderful soundtrack, which is full of beauty and poetry at the same time as it is tense and exciting. I've seen a lot of car chase scenes in commercial action movies, and this is by far the one that impresses me the most.
In short, this movie has beautiful pictures, beautiful actors, and a beautiful story. The two-hour time makes people concentrate on it, and even feel moved by it. For me, it can be called a pleasing movie.
