The thrilling performance of Nolan in TDK is familiar to everyone; in addition to the powerful and elusive clown, Batman fights with himself; Bond in Skyfall is similar in this point: what he wants to fight That enemy was an older and more painful himself. In fact, the two people were in almost the same state, and he was fighting with his dark shadow.
So the power of Joker sets off the power of Batman. He turned the city upside down, Batman and GCPD took great pains to catch him. Here, Nolan created a dramatic tension that is strong enough. After Joker counterattacked, everyone found that he was only deliberately letting himself be caught. Will be more powerful. Unfortunately, Skyfall is empty at this point. When the big Boss Silva appeared on the stage, everyone immediately thought of Joker; he was caught before long. This victory was too easy, and the audience immediately formed an impression that he was deliberate. The tension here wasn't enough, so Silva's ruffling hearing later on to revenge against M didn't have much strength here. Everyone only thinks that he is a bad guy like Joker, but this bad guy is based on the stereotype that everyone has seen before TDK, not how strong the character’s portrayal is. To be honest, I think he It’s worse than comics, and it feels like a character of a facialized BOSS with mental problems coming out of a Japanese anime. Joker is different, he is completely chaotic, and the portrayal of this character reaches its culmination in the scene of his conversation with Harvey Dent in the hospital. Silva lacks such a foreshadowing.
The same goes for Bond. As mentioned before, his image is close to Batman in TDK, and his enemies are actually the same kind of people; agents betrayed by M. But this point was empty, and it was not implemented in the follow-up. Batman's inner darkness was completely manifested in the scene where he beat the clown in the interrogation room, but classmate Bond returned from death and betrayal, just saying nothing. The director may want to use this to express the difference between Bond and Silva, but everyone has known this for a long time. If a breakthrough in Bond's image is not needed, why do you need to do this?
The character image is finished, and the plot cannot stand scrutiny. Not to mention that classmate Silva has worked hard for many years to deploy hidden piles of police cars and uniforms all over the UK. The escape route is all planned. The loud hearing is to kill M. In the end, they did not prepare a few automatic weapons. Three people holding a small pistol biubiubiu and shooting In the second half of the movie, Bond takes M back to their Skyfall manor. This is not true. For Silva, his relationship with M is a personal grievance, but it is not for M and Bond. Terrorist activities appeared at the hearings attended by senior government officials. The London Underground was bombed. Silva should be wanted by the British nation. As a senior official of MI6, M should be able to use the country’s overwhelming force to kill Silva. At the worst, you can call the Royal Special Air Service (SAS) to ambush. The three old clappers didn't even wait for a group of terrorists who could get military helicopters to hit them with decent weapons. What is this? Is the British government all dead? I basically got out of the context in the latter part of the movie, and waited to see how Bond would kill all the enemies like Superman-he won't die anyway, just see how this process can be more absurd. From the narrative point of view, the rhythm of the movie is not as good as that of TDK-two hours of talk in TDK may be completed in one hour, Nolan's ability to compress huge amounts of information in one frame is not overwhelming.
Finally, I will talk about the current film culture. There is no doubt that Bond is old, and 007 is also old. Young male audiences nowadays will no longer buy into old spy action movies like 007, and Bond is no longer their idol. For me and the people I know, there is no doubt that we prefer Jason Bourne. . Before watching the movie, we once laughed and talked about the effect of letting Matt Damon play Bond. The Bourne series undoubtedly redefines spy action movies in the new century: Jason Bourne is the man in the mind of the new man. He is calm and low-key. Good fist, the most important thing is that he is capable. Yes, this is the most important: have the ability to do everything, get the job done. Bond, look at the fight on the top of the train to know that he is old, old enough Nothing can be done well—slow and heavy, painful and boring. To put it bluntly, this is an action movie style from the 1980s, which is outdated.
So what should I do? The male audience already thinks the old man is very boring, so sell it to the female audience. The Bond girl ran by and got a lunch box. Silva and Bond were interrogating that part of Kidd couldn't tell, and the new Doctor Q was also the cute British gay in the eyes of the fucking girl. So 007 uses this method to attract current female audiences, anyway, corrupt girls are the current trend.
Dr. Q complained in the art gallery: “I woke up in the morning wearing pajamas and did more espionage activities before eating breakfast than you can do in a year”, which translates to four words: “Exterminate the food”. Skyfall redefined the new era of 007 with Tucao.
