You die and live in 007-the beginning of a new era

Oda 2022-02-09 08:01:51

The first work of the third Bond has a certain experimental nature and bold attempts. It can be seen from the Diamond Diamond that the film party wants to add comedy elements to the Bond film. Although Roger Moore is as tall as Connery, there is no Connery. Mighty because of the elegant temperament of his unique old-school gentleman in London, his humorous language style and expression control make people feel more easy-going. Successfully realized the film's attempt to new styles. The image of New Bond created by Moore also made his 007 series even if maybe some One is not so good, but at least it still makes it easy and comfortable to watch

When I was young, the first Bond I came into contact with was Brosnan so that I was not interested in the Bond of the old series before, but now I like to take a closer look at Moore's series after I really went to the UK. His English voice is the most comfortable of all Bonds. Of English learners can learn his intonation and expression

Since Moore was already quite old when he made this film, he is the oldest of all the Bond actors, so his series sometimes feels that his fighting scenes are a bit clumsy, but the actors are still good enough. Fortunately, the equipment of the Moore series is quite good. It was very imaginative and technologically forward-looking in that era. These novelties made up for the weakness of fighting scenes to some extent.

The Bond girl in this film is quite beautiful, especially after the white dress, the image is just like a fairy. Her big watery eyes are quite emotional. Although the plot setting is an inexperienced villain with poor acting skills, she already knows this. In the case of dots, its surprising performance is still a bit annoying

Speaking of the movie itself, the overall plot rhythm is better than the later Golden Gun Man and Timothy Dalton's dawn of life. Because the film involves black voodoo and sorcery elements, it adds a lot of mystery to the film. The most impressive. The first half of this movie is almost full of villains. Bond's every move is almost under surveillance. This crisis-ridden feeling creates a particularly good impression. All the 007 series are considered to be a deep impression on me.

Let me talk about a few plays that I think are better:

1. The camouflage in the opening of the funeral group performance before and after the performance contrast, the display of the details is very good, and it also appeared twice in the film and there is no sense of repetition. It is wonderful~

2. At the beginning, the tension of the driver being assassinated and the car out of control even abused several streets in the "Ghost" car chase scene!

3. The scene of the bathroom snake trap reminds me of the poisonous spider in Dr. No, and it has a new idea~

4. The crocodile pool escape not much to say that the whole film personally thinks the most thrilling scene is extremely difficult to actually shoot, the actors are really dedicated!

5. When the hostess faces the viper Bond trying to rescue at the cult scene, the soundtrack renders the atmosphere very good

Overall, the thrilling and action scenes of this movie are quite sufficient. Except for the five-point double-decker bus chase scene mentioned above, the airport escape speedboat chase must be a creative scene in that era.

It must be mentioned that the opening music of the soundtrack of this film is really a chorus. The melodies are melodious and beautiful, but the interlude is so intense that it is used in the film and the tense scenes are quite good. Even the final battle with the boss is used. Variations of that melody and the beautiful melody also runs through the whole film, but it does not make people feel repetitive and bored. In addition, the soundtrack in the whole movie, including the Bond main melody, is integrated with black music, the unique style of instrument drums, etc. are very distinctive and the soundtrack For the film, it is even more careful than the Undersea City!

Wonderful battles are indispensable to good opponents. Moore's 007 series has created a lot of impressive villains. This big boss did not impress me very deeply. On the contrary, it was his men, especially the laughter, weird and nervous. When the Baron Sorcerer first brushed it, when he appeared at the end of the film and felt that the film was mysterious, he noticed that the character was mentioned in the introduction of the scene, the man who can not die, combined with this detail, and then looked at the end of the film for a few seconds to add a sense of mystery.

Iron Hand Old Hei performed well in both the crocodile pool and the train. The evil Bond film series has always had excellent train compartment fighting scenes. This end of the film is very good, but it is a pity that it is also the part of Moore's underwater city. The train fighting scene is so oppressive that I don’t feel much about the scene on the train...it can only be said that the times are advancing

As the beginning of the new Bond series, there are so many excellent elements. However, there are still some shortcomings that caused me not to include this film when I chose the 007top list.

The biggest failure of the personal film is the voice of the stupid American Sheriff character, facial expressions, procrastination, and random, non-standard words, like an ugly mangy appearing in the speedboat chase scene. It was originally a comedy element for this paragraph. It looks funny but not funny. Maybe it’s the reason for the cultural differences. But this character will appear again in the next movie The Man with the Golden Gun. I really don’t appreciate it.

Perhaps it was the influence of this stupid character that led to a decline in the experience of watching some of the speedboat drama. In fact, this section is indeed a little long. The speedboat washed ashore once or twice, and it was almost repeated too many times. When it comes to this part, the rhythm is suddenly slower, and it makes people feel a little tired

The final boss fight. The big boss is obsessed and obsessed with playing the game of death. Don’t give a Bond a joy. Not to mention the clichés. I’m getting used to it in the whole series... and the fact that the boss itself is weak is just because it’s powerful and it’s not fierce enough. In comparison, drama The tension is not as good as the boss fight of the Golden Gun man, and the thrilling sense of the shark scene is not as good as the thunderbolt and the killing license as the final battle. It is a pity

Overall, it’s a good start to life and death. There are many remarkable elements worth remembering. Perhaps I really hate the role of the sheriff and strongly influence my perception. This one can only be regarded as moderate in my heart, but it is definitely not mediocre~
