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 and tenderness is in place).
2. The plot of this film is more realistic than that of Moore's time, especially since "Top Secret". But I have to say that the plot of this film is much less intense and exciting than most of Moore's works. The first half of the film revolves around the Russian general who has surrendered. It is quite compact, with many highlights and wonderful action scenes. However, the latter part of the plot is relatively loose and lengthy (Bond escaped after being arrested and somehow joined the Afghan Resistance Army plot and the opium trading plot. I feel that the complete deletion does not affect the plot trend, and the story is too complicated and lengthy) . The whole plot is actually the story of the Russian general who surrendered using MI6 to eradicate his opponent in Russia. After Bond saw through, Bond became angry and rescued the Afghan people by the way.
3. The film has made a lot of effort on the Bond girl. Although it has experienced the history of being cheated by Russian generals, by Bond, and then by Russian generals, it can at least allow the audience to see the psychological transformation of this character. But the same can't help the Bond girl vase routine.
4. The action scenes are basically concentrated in the first half. The beginning of the Bond pick-up truck, the ice lake chase, and cello skiing are all very creative, but the second half of the action scene has shrunk severely. It takes about an hour to usher in the final climax. Scenes, but apart from the final fight on the plane, there is nothing worth mentioning in the rest of the scenes. Compared with the old predecessors, whether it is the ending train, car, and airplane continuous action scene of "Octopus", or the ending mountaineering of "Top Secret", the mid-stage ski chase, or the amphibious car of "Underwater City", the undersea city shootout, it's worse. A little originality and surprise.
5. Whether the villain in this movie is the big boss behind the scenes arms dealer, the rebellious Russian general, or the killer, there is no good point. The only thing to watch is that this time the enemy killer sneaked into the MI6 headquarters and blew up the headquarters. . . . . This is the first time in the Bond series.
6. In my personal mind, the plot and villains of this film are not as good as "Love from Russia". The action drama is better and it takes advantage of the times, so it is not as good as "Love from Russia". However, the image of Bond created by Timothy is very clear, and although the plot is insufficient, it is better than "The Eight Claws", so it ranks ahead of "The Eight Claws" and ranks 11th in all 24 films.
