Classic Cold War spy films require a certain amount of relevant historical knowledge to fully understand, such as the fall of the Berlin Wall. The story line is a little too difficult to understand and unnecessary, and it seems that the heroine's protagonist's halo is a little too dazzling, and there is a clear gap in the bullet hit rate. Is it a bit outrageous for the bare-handed heroine to KO more than a dozen agents with guns? However, the fight scene is very real, and there is indeed the dizziness of being thrown down the stairs and the exhaustion of being unable to stand up after hard work. Of course, when it comes to fighting scenes, it is also worth mentioning the ten-minute pseudo-long shot in the film, which is still very enjoyable to watch.
The music is thoughtful. It is said to be the golden song of that era. There are also many pictures and lyrics that make people smile. The colors are very bold and very stylized, there are many highly saturated images, such as the bright blue and red in bars and hotels, but there are mostly gray tones on the streets, which form a sharp contrast.
The sex scene between the heroine and the beautiful young lady is very fragrant. Maybe it can be said that it brings a certain depth to the heroine, or it can be said that it makes the heroine not much different from other agents (this was specially changed by the screenwriter to be different from the original novel) Woolen cloth). Some details that support reversal require 2 viewings to understand, but there is nothing in the whole movie that particularly attracts others.
Finally, a movie with such a big heroine inevitably mentions feminism, but the whole movie really seldom emphasizes the femininity of the heroine. Of course, Theron did a great job! It is said that the success of Mad Max 4 led the film's director and screenwriter to find Theron to make such a story.
Overall, that's it, not too good, not too bad. I can't tell whether it is more suitable for enjoying the visual feast without thinking, or for the plot party to dig into the small details and understand the story line. Because I am not very fond of spy movies, it is really difficult to feel the charm of it.
