After watching the whole film, here are my personal feelings about this film:
1. The entire film's location is basically in Japan, full of strong oriental style, and also has a large depiction of Japanese culture such as weddings, sumo, ninja, etc. It can be described as unique in the 007 series which is dominated by European and American mainstream culture. , The style is very prominent in the entire series of 24 parts, especially the soundtrack. The soundtrack of the marriage section is not only romantic but also very oriental. (Although the scene in "Falling from the Sky" is set in China, it is only a small part, and there is basically no in-depth understanding of Chinese culture)
2. The scene design of this film is also very hard. In the end, the volcano base of the Ghost Party was built by the producer in real scene. The huge scene (the whole scenery material even exceeds the Hilton Hotel) is also very good in modern film shooting. Rare.
3. There are mainly three Bond girls in this movie. One is the ghost party killer No. 11, who slept with Bond but did not turn back. So, not surprisingly, they were thrown to feed the mermaid by the big BOSS Ghost Party 1. . One was a Japanese woman who was responsible for connecting with Bond, but she was poisoned by an assassin at night when she went to bed with Bond. The last Bond girl to appear is very interesting. It is also a Japanese woman who has faked marriage with Bond. He can always be seen hiding behind Bond cautiously in fighting scenes. He looks very delicate among the strongman Bond girls, and his appearance is quite high. It's a pity that there are not many scenes
4. Several action scenes in the film are full of imagination and grandeur. For example, magnets suck enemies to chase cars, ninjas descend from the sky and attack the base of a volcano. It’s worth mentioning that Bond drove a small helicopter in an air battle with several helicopters sent by the Ghost Party. In that era when everything was filmed in real life, this action scene was highly completed and full of realism, and the helicopter was also very realistic. All real guys. In that era, apart from war movies, it is estimated that there will be no ordinary action movies with such battles.
5. The biggest villain of the whole series is also the No. 1 Belofo of the Ghost Party finally officially appeared. But the villain's performance in the film is quite disappointing. There were times when he could kill Bond, but he didn't kill him. In addition to makeup, there is no sense of oppression by the villain. There is no action scene or head-to-head fight with Bond (at this point, even the female villain in "Love from Russia" has an action scene with Bond), and the plan is also very trivial, and it has built a ship than the US Soviet Union. What can't you do with the ability to return a cow's spacecraft? It is only used to provoke the US-Soviet struggle for hegemony. As soon as the ninja army came, they took the lead and ran away, completely unable to support the aura of 007's first villain.
6. In my mind, this film ranks second in the entire series, just below the best Bond "Casino Royale" in my mind. Higher than the third "Black Sun Crisis" in my mind. Many people may not agree with it, or even think it is weird. But we have to start with the highlights of the 007 series. The highlight of the 007 series is obviously not depth, serious plots, social issues, but gimmicks, exotic styles, bond girls, humorous plots, interesting characters, and unique bonds. , An action scene full of imagination and unique excitement, and a plot that can justify the above factors is added at the end. And for the above factors, "Thunder Valley" has been completed very well. Because of the age, many people may think that the plot is not intense enough, the action is not exciting enough, the Bond girl is not beautiful enough, and even see the Japanese nausea, but personally think that this movie has a lot of gimmicks (US-Soviet Space Competition, 007 resignation, Ghost Party BOSS shows up), the action drama is excellent (if you have to take "Space City" in the 70s, "Death by Daylight" in the 80s, "Golden Eye" in the 90s, and "Casino Royale" in the 21st century than the "Thunderbolt" in the 60s "The Valley", when I didn’t say it), a strong exotic atmosphere (this series basically runs in Europe, America and Greece), and the character plot is interesting (this one has their own love, I personally think this plot is very interesting) . This Bond film has all the elements, because the villain is really bad, so the personal evaluation is not as good as "Casino Royale", but it has the elements and style of the Bond film as a whole than "Black Sun Crisis", so I personally consider this The part "Thunder Valley" ranked second in my mind.
