What 007 stands out is to save the world from destruction;
impossible missions are full of high-tech sense;
Borne Identity talks about personal survival.
What they have in common is a big action scene full of hot scene after scene, showing off all kinds of weapons, martial arts, and equipment. But it does not necessarily pay attention to the depth of narrative and the exploration of human nature. Because Hollywood has a clear definition of such movies, action movies, or spy action movies.
Traitors like us are also the subject of spy warfare. But it is neither an action movie nor a suspense movie. I think it may be regarded as an atypical hybrid genre, focusing on the plot and drama of the creation. In a sense, in order to tell a very British worldview and dramatic irony, they used a spy war theme as a backing.
This seems to be a recent style of British dramas, and it is a bit pessimistic about the world. For example, in this drama, for so many British MPs, they will not hesitate to let their own agents and citizens (the male protagonist of this film is almost) in the helicopter for personal benefit. On the funeral. He is full of a certain kind of documentary, not speeding up or conflicting rhythm for the Hollywood syllogism, but recording according to the way things might happen.
Because of this, the film appears to be that British agents and the Perry couple are going to rescue the Dima family of the Mafia who carry important evidence. In fact, it is to save British morality. Many of the morals in this are chaotic. The mafia’s finance chief is very concerned about traditional morals and conventions, while the former chief of the Sixth Division in the United Kingdom is a corrupt person who has a close relationship with the enemy country. The only British agent who wanted to punish evil and promote good was motivated by public revenge.
Not the most exciting fireworks, but it is a very real mood.
