A Lesser Subversion: Anticlimactic

It should be said that the opening song is nice, absolutely British rock, and it sounds very comfortable. The opening is also very creative. Although I can't stand the blood, I find it refreshing and full of thinking that I will see a 007 that subverts the tradition. However, after reading it, I found that, in the words of my colleague Ann, there are constant small orgasms, but there is no complete big orgasm. Seeing the back is really impatient. Seeing the end, I have to sigh, this is really a subversion of the failure of the 007 series.

As we all know, 007's consistent style is to show the elegance and gentleman's demeanor of the British Empire agents. In the past, Bond was generally handsome and unrestrained. Even in fights, he always did not forget to be handsome. The last Bond Pierce Brosnan took this stereotype to the extreme. It should be said that in such a situation, the audience is very likely to have aesthetic fatigue, so it is really understandable to make an appropriate change in style. However, with the development of the plot, we can easily see that the director has that ambition but lacks that strength, which greatly underestimates the IQ of the audience. The change of Bond girl's attitude towards Bond makes people feel stiff. Bond himself is too rough, and it is very incongruous with the Bond girl, and it lacks the elegant temperament that made 007 fans crazy in the past. The transformation will inevitably bring a loss of a part of the light and a gain of a part of the audience. But don't forget, the audience watching 007, still expect to see a 007 with an independent style, not this kind of violent hero, if it is really for violent heroes, why not watch Rocky or "Terminator" or something like that What about movies?

So to put it simply, the ultimate reason for the failure of this subversion is that there is no new idea in the subversion, and it ends up being old-fashioned. When there was more than half an hour left at the end of the movie, I started to get impatient. The bizarre rescue of Bond and the Bond Girl was obviously a conspiracy behind it, and it was obvious that the Bond Girl had a problem. It was Bond who was just starting out. He encountered such an emotional setback and was deceived by innocent MM. He originally planned to retire from the arena, but finally found that the cruel reality taught him a good lesson. Of course, MM did not deliberately lie to him, but had difficulties. In the end, MM sacrificed his life and obtained Bond's understanding. Anyway, there must be a grudge between the two of them, so that this relationship can stimulate Bond and make him grow into a big radish, playing games between beauties. This kind of ending is equivalent to half of the innovation, and it went back to the old way, and the result is a nondescript.

The director underestimated the audience's IQ too much. The success of this kind of film is that although the general ending is definitely Bond's victory, the plot design can still show ingenious and meticulous ideas. Another flaw in the clean design of the film is that the front is overdone, highlighting the incomparable strength of the opponent, how Bond has gone through all kinds of dangers, and the victory in the back is actually effortless. , is really top-heavy.

The fact that the male pig's feet are not handsome is not the point of New Bond's failure, the point is that the director and screenwriter are really disappointing. The Bond girl looked familiar, although she could tell me where she was. Although it is not in the eyes of colleagues, it is OK in my opinion.
