Let me talk about the background of the film first: The film is adapted from Bill Granger's 1987 novel "No Spy". It tells the story of a former CIA agent who was recalled to perform a private mission and fell into a situation involving high-level Americans and Russia. In the deadly conspiracy of the elected president.
If you watch it in 2014-2015, you might get a higher score. Unfortunately, I watched it in 2020, so it feels worse. After all, in the past few years, too many things have happened, and I don’t feel much about Hollywood’s heroism and Cold War-themed movies.
Go to see it at Pierce Brosnan. The reason is quite complicated, because I heard that the latest 007 will be starred in a half episode by a black actress. After sighing, I accidentally saw this old movie, so I clicked in and watched it.
On the whole, the film is quite satisfactory, the plot is clearer, and the rhythm is well controlled. The literary and martial arts are still the third set. They are all old formulas, and you can basically guess what will be played in the next show.
In terms of ideology, I'm too lazy to talk about it. Movies are just fun, and there is no need to be too serious. After all, it is a film adapted from a novel in 1987. On the eve of the disintegration of the Soviet Union, a film with a typical Cold War mentality was just adapted and added some elements of the new century, but the core remained unchanged.
The score is lower because the protagonist's aura is too strong.
Say a few places that are too BUG:
1. It's nothing more than the old skin, after all, it is 007 possessed, but the heroine actually killed the female assassin with a shovel, it is really unreasonable; in addition, when the female assassin and the heroine entered the same scene for the first time at the station , The female killer’s sight has been focused on the heroine. According to the general movie routine, she should have spotted the heroine at that time; however, she was forced to find out when she entered the same scene for the second time. Then he was given a second by a shovel. What the hell? ! Is this the female killer?
2. The hotel shootout. Hotel shootout, no silencer, in a third country. No police, no police, no panicked tenants and waiters.
3. Where did the heroine get a photo with the general?
4. The heroine actually couldn't bear to kill the general, but that was the enemy who killed her parents and younger brother.
5. The earth is actually quite big, but the people inside can go wherever they want. When it comes to Lucy's house, they go to Lucy's house, just like what happened in a small county.
In addition, did Old Pi go to bed with the heroine?
