"The League of Spies", as the name suggests, is a war spy war blockbuster, and it not only has spy wars, wars and other eye-catching elements, but also a love film, sweet and warm, more sad and mournful, it is quite rare in recent years. A heart-wrenching war romance.
The film has a strong modern retro flavor. This is not only reflected in Marianne's extraordinary hairstyle, makeup, clothing and accessories, but also in Max's meticulous head shape, spotless suit and leather shoes. During the Second World War, the home decoration of London residents living at home, ranging from kitchen utensils to window decorations, was also very modern and retro. Not to mention the flaming red lips and wavy curly hair of fashionable girls in bars and dance halls, the fragrant temples and charming dance steps of modest gentlemen, all of which fit the background of the war at that moment,
even if they were directly related to the war. The creation of uniforms, ordnance, aircraft, etc., the film also strives to be as meticulously crafted and accurately restored to the greatest extent possible. In terms of details, "Spy Allies" is not ambiguous at all, which shows the ingenuity and sincerity of director Robert Zemeckis.

    If Brad Pitt's tradition is to get divorced after acting in a spy or special agent movie, I can only say that this movie is too late. Also, this is a sad story. @Untouched Dragon

    Uncle Pi's language skills are zero. The Quebec accent said this was the worst time it was hacked. The length of the shot in Casablanca is to give Max a sufficient motivation for later actions. However, when the possibility of the wife being a spy was raised, the inner entanglement of the character and the tension of the husband and wife relationship were not followed up, and it was inevitable that it would be cliche. Not enough sprints, the climax is like a hasty ending. Fortunately, scenes, clothes, and performances are all conscientious.
