In Pierce Brosnan's 007 days, I felt like I was watching a sci-fi movie. He has a variety of magical sidearms, and can always save Bond from danger at the most critical juncture. So, if the writers don't rack their brains to create the pens, shoes, watches, cars that Bond uses, 007 can die 700 times in an episode.
It may be that the screenwriter has run out of skills and can no longer make up those bizarre things. Without these, can Bond be Bond? Can 007 still be 007?
So, in the Daniel Craig era, everything seems to be going backwards, or more accurately, returning. In this "skyfall", all the oldness is revealed.
The fingerprint-recognition pistol, which was still a great thing, disappeared within half an episode, and the old ancestor's shotgun came on in the end; the BMW was replaced by an Aston Martin classic car; the homemade detonator; the old castle in disrepair; One of the highlights of the past is the Bond girl who becomes the old housekeeper; it is the dagger that kills the final villain.
"Sometimes the old ways work best". --Such a traditional writing technique of coherence has been used in the film.
Unlike many people who feel that Motobu 007 is nothing new, I am more inclined to this transition to "real". In the adult world, there should be no fairy tales.
