Ordinary 007

When I usually answer the question "Which is your favorite movie?", the first thing that comes to my mind is Sam Mendes' American Beauty. This answer is not thought and analyzed at all. I don't know why. When I think of "American Beauty" first, there must be something special that left a deep impression on my subconscious. But 007 I'm not mainly optimistic about the director, because my 007 is Denzel Krazer. Regardless of the plot, Denzel's image is already 007. He's the most perfect agent, much better than Hunter in my opinion.

The perfect image comes from his imperfect personality. He is the first agent who can make me feel haggard, helpless, restless, and sad. When watching Denzel's 007, I must experience his pain. His pain is the essence of these 4 films. Especially his love with VESPER was so poignant and hopeless that he suppressed it. And his relationship with M. If you can appreciate the unbreakable loyalty and the difficult process of balancing Ms. M's feelings for him and putting the big picture first, then the superficially powerful and M is actually very firm behind it. Faith and inescapable guilt.

It's impossible for a protagonist to die, especially in a hero movie, but Denzel's version of 007 made me feel that he was so close to death because I felt his vulnerability. Possibly more dangerous plots other spy movies have, but don't feel the possibility of failure. Denzel's 007 makes me think that he is just an ordinary person who has only received some training. He takes on huge responsibilities because he has no choice. In the face of danger, love, and setbacks, he will have the same reaction as us ordinary people. He tries to hide his vulnerability and ordinaryness, but is exposed to us by the camera. This is what gives the movie the most real excitement.

    The plot is too big and inappropriate. Many favorite points 1. The lighting is very staged, the conference is backlit, the torture room is white, etc., the composition is beautiful, the color is uniformly dim and gray, but it is too dark and slightly tired. Nimile 4 titles and long shots start with dazzling skills. 5 A man who can’t say no to Bond. Q 6 A delicate M also needs to put his gun on the battlefield. Looking at the heart tremor, 7 soundtracks, 8 cats, what does it mean to symbolize Bond’s blue eyes?

    Mendes wanted to learn from Nolan's "Dark Knight" series, wanted to dig into the family history of the character Bond, but he still had no choice but to speak thinly. Not only did he fail to learn Nolan's sharp eloquence, but he also wrote stupid things. Water talk; a good muscle blockbuster, but regarded as a literary film, making the rhythm of the whole film a mess; what is more deadly is that the action scenes become more boring as the action scenes are unimaginative, and there will only be a few more explosives. . ★★
