It's a digression from the title: I'm a diehard Bourne/Pony Brother who used Moby's ExtremeWay as a morning alarm for three years. Byrne's loneliness, justice, wisdom and courage have inspired me to survive the harsh winters in Nanjing. The Spy series is a spiritual inspiration for me. then. . . This probably caused me to have too high expectations for Spy 4, too much comparison, and ultimately led to too much disappointment. . .
At the beginning of the movie, it took over the ending of Spy 3. The people floating in the water were as quiet as dead fish, and then moved like the drowning rabbit. Although such a connection is straightforward, it is not impossible. But the more I look back, the more disappointed I get. The second half of the film is a collection of wonderful scenes from the first three films, what about jumping off the roof in the downtown area of the third world (refer to Spy Movie 3), what to grab a motorcycle (refer to Spy Movie 3), and what Stockholm Syndrome female pig's feet (refer to Spy Movie 3) Shadow 12), what kind of trick-or-treating male killer (refer to Spy Movie 123). . . Even some of the lines are directly copied, such as the female pig's feet in the car of No. 5 roaring: "Who are they!!!!!" (refer to Spy Shots 1). After seeing it, I basically guessed the plot first, then the guess was confirmed, and then I was secretly happy wow, I can almost become a screenwriter.
Honestly, there are still bright spots. One, No. 5 (I really only know that the man is called No. 5...) In the deep mountains and old forest, in order to avoid the pursuit, the tracking capsule implanted in the body was taken out, and a trap was set to catch the wild wolf alive, and finally succeeded The escape part was pretty awesome. Another example is that Edward Norton received a call from a junior staff member at the beginning, and the camera cut to Spy Shadow 1, and the junior staff member hid in the office and said "He's here (he is coming)" to the phone. It solved a little bit of the remaining problems that I had accumulated in my mind for many years. Three, the ending song. The siren-like music sounded with the sea as the background, a refreshing and uplifting feeling, as if returning to the moment when the final scene of Spy Shadow 3 ended 5 years ago. Moby's Extreme Way, closing your eyes is a flashback to the entire spy movie series.
On the whole, Spy Shadow IV has done too much in the connection work with the first three films. It is simply a film made for the sake of connection - at least the director, you have to let the audience remember the name of the boy's feet. . . But it wouldn't be a good movie without the first three. But a good movie at least has to let the audience remember the name of the male pig's feet. . .
Details and characterization, rough legs. . . The contrast with the strictness and meticulousness of the first three works is too great, so let's not talk about it. . . A movie must at least make the audience remember the name of the male pig's feet. . .
As a Bourne loyalist who has watched the entire Spy Movie series over and over a hundred times, I want to scold how the screenwriter of The Spy Movie 4 can be so frantic! ! ! Tony! That's right, it's you! ! Liar Tony!
After calming down, I realized that the director is not a liar, and the entire title is a spoiler for Hong Guoguo. "Bourne's Legacy", the so-called legacy is that bowl of cold rice~

Today Heping Yingdu watched Spy Shadow IV again, the male pig's foot is called Allen!
Also, the action scenes are greasy and the camera is too close. I saw fists, elbows and heads swaying rapidly in front of the camera, and then they were all knocked down by No. 5. What kind of trick is it? It is estimated that the director is also lazy to think. In contrast, in Bourne's fighting scenes in the previous three films, the director's camera is far away, and you can see the movements of the entire body during the fight. My favorite shot is, in the first part, he was in the German agent's house (the one that was blown up with magazines and a bread machine), and there were some shots from the ceiling, very clean.
The scene cuts worked well in the first half, 5 in the forest and the mastermind in the concrete forest.
