In fact, after watching "The Bournemouth 5", the audience should also ask the director Paul Greengrass and the starring Matt Damon: It’s been almost ten years, why do you want to At this time to shoot such a sequel? Ten years later, in "The Bourage 5", the audience saw many elements that are advancing with the times: Syrian refugees on the border between Greece and Albania, the Greek riots caused by the economic crisis, and user privacy that is not on the stage between the social media giants and the CIA. Controversy, and so on, can’t be prepared; but watching the big screen, Matt Damon, who knows his fate after five years, looks up wrinkled, panting, and continues to be omnipotent with a tired expression. It is difficult to prevent the audience from feeling compassionate. : Why is this again? This tired-faced middle-aged uncle is no longer the Jason Bourne who was able to single-handedly single-handedly pick up the magazine in the house or the towel in the bathtub.
And this exhaustion is not just manifested in the wrinkles and rough skin of the 45-year-old Matt Damon, but the story itself is unconvincing. In Bourne, the audience follows Jason Bourne’s perspective, from the beginning of ignorance, all the way to the protagonist’s identity, and finally retreat; in Bourne, the audience originally wanted to escape from the past. Jason Bourne, however, restarted his revenge journey because his girlfriend who had lived with him for two years died. In Bourne Bourne 3, the audience once again followed Jason Bourne’s perspective and traveled back to New York, unlocking the story of Jason Bourne’s life. The truth story (The Bournegro repetitive 4 is skipped, because I really don’t have to say...). And in The Bourne Fly 5, Jason Bourne hasn’t provoke anyone for nearly 10 years. It’s just that Nicky, who had some fate, discovered the death of his father Richard Webb and the new plan of the CIA, so he wanted to find Jason again. Bourne. Starting from the motivation of the story alone, when the protagonist’s life experience in the main story is clear, the sequel adds the cause of the protagonist’s father’s death and re-enter the road for the murder of his father. mean.
And when Jason Bourn was on the road again almost ten years later, the opponents he faced were not those of Noah Vosen and Pam Lanley, who impressed the audience with their distinctive personalities. Ten years later, the director of the CIA, Robert Dewey, is an old fritters who feels good and pretends to do everything; and Heather Lee does not have the compassion of Nicky back then, but just a person who wants to be in the big organization of the CIA. Progressive young women who climb up through various grades. And when Jason Bourne finally told Heather on the lake in Washington, "Let me think about whether or not to return to the CIA", he might miss Noah Vosen, who fought his wits and courage in the ice and snow in New York. The floor-to-ceiling glass of the skyscraper told him his real name by phone, Pam Lanley. Compared with the two back then, now this villain and a pros and cons are not as few active people on the screen as they were in the past.
Having said so much, if it is just to criticize "The Bournemouth 5", it is obviously not the original intention. Because the "The Bourne Shadow" trilogy, which was born more than ten years ago, indeed shocked almost all audiences at that time. Whether it is character creation, story development, handheld photography, high-speed editing, shaking shots, and many other styles, it is undoubtedly established as a pioneering school to establish the style of Hollywood action movies in the past ten years.
Take the simplest point, before the "Bourne Shadow" series, the protagonists of action movies had three fighting routines: either they had advanced equipment, or they had good-looking routines, or they had strong muscles. The audience has become accustomed to the various advanced equipment of James Bond 007 that can play with opponents while picking up girls, or Yuan Heping's Matrix suit and martial arts routine wars N round, or the governor picks up Gatling infinite bullets and sweeps humans and foreigners. Stars, robots, aliens, and other enemies; while "The Bourne is Overwhelmed" almost overnight led to a sense of hand-to-hand contact: whatever you caught, no matter it was Newspaper towels are still candlestick lids, so you can fight close when you copy them. And unless it’s a big boss, the protagonist will try to subdue his opponent cleanly within a few moves; at the same time, director Paul Greengrass is always shaking in the fight, keeping the camera at the audience’s shoulder-high perspective. It also uses constant perspective conversion and fast editing to create a very oppressive and real look. And nowadays, even the 007 series, such as full-time pick-up girls, have played the tricks of hand-held photography, shaking the lens, and close combat in Skyfall. It is conceivable that it is difficult for young audiences to imagine the "Spy" back then. The sense of being born in the shadows series. Even in the areas where it is difficult to dig out the highlights today, "The Bournemouth 5" still brings a long-lost surprise: the several action scenes of the film are very amazing. Especially after the end of the film, a Las Vegas casino chase, there is no doubt that the audience will be nailed to the chairs of the movie theater, and then open their mouths and can't help but wonder how this is done.
At this age, it seems that the film series and the growth of people are in the mid-life crisis; it is just that at this time, we must do our best to show the young audience's original heroism and add many current elements to prove that they are not out of date. Many fats and powerlessness inevitably make people sigh. After all, the white-headed heroes and the late beauties are embarrassing, but I guess, in the eyes of Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon, we may not have the amazing happiness of the audience in the past. After all, "surprise" is more anticipated than "feelings".
