Since the end of the 1990s, spy warfare movies have been very popular.
With the development of the times, almost all the agents in the movie have changed into fashionable suits, transformed from a cold killer to a handsome playboy.
thus created three well-known agents in the film industry in the era when the secret agent film became popular. They were Ethan Hunter, James Bond, and Jason Byrne. "The Spy", "007" and "Spy Shadows" series.
Some netizens once asked such a question: If Ethan Hunter, Jason Byrne, and 007 have three singles, who is the best?
Netizens gave only one name: Jason Byrne.
is more concise but also delicate, calmer but also more emotional, more practical and lonely. He is also an absolute agent with super strong fighting skills and super high reasoning ability.
can be said that in the world of secret agent movies, his popularity is not lower than the other two.
Of course, these three series of special agent movies are all classics.
But as a fan of mystery reasoning, the "The Bourne" series is Lao Meng's favorite spy movie.
has been 17 years since the first "The Bourne" in 2002. From the perspective of plot creativity alone, this special agent movie reveals its distinctive temperament. The story of the
amnesia agent regaining his identity while also avoiding the pursuit, sounds very burning.
Indeed, the first three of the Bourne Shadow series starring Matt Damon (the latter two are really some strokes) can be described as classics in the secret agent movie classics. The film adds a line of suspense reasoning to the action film. Coupled with the audio-visual language composed of fierce editing, it forms its own series of characteristics and is also a breakthrough for special agent movies. These three works of
were selected into the TOP250 of Douban movies and were rated better than 98% of action movies and 96% of suspense movies.
In fact, long before it was made into a movie, the original novel of "The Bourne" should have a large number of fans all over the world.
is different from ordinary spy movies. In this series, there are no handsome male protagonists, no seductive and hot beauties, no ultra-modern equipment, no palace fortresses, and no big conspiracy to destroy the world. It just relies on rigorous and complete stories and meticulous logic to conquer the audience.
It is precisely because of our love for the first three parts of "The Bourne" that it was restarted after 5 years. Although the quality of the latter two is still weaker, it is still passable after all, and in the fifth part, Matt Damon is back.
However, the story about "The Bourne" is not over. Next, Lao Meng will introduce you a new American drama with a big background in October. It is a derivative drama of "The Bourne", or it can be said. This is a series of prequel + side story.
is good, the TV series "The Bourne" is out! It is-
"Stumbling Block"
Seeing this name, friends who are familiar with "The Bourne" will surely know the connection between the show and the movie.
In the "Bourne Shadow" series of movies, from the first Jason Bernie began to find his identity, there has been a plan throughout, the name of the plan is "stumbling block" (in the third movie, this plan was upgraded to The "Black Heather Project"). As soon as
opened, it was 1973. In a building on the outskirts of East Berlin, John was tied to a chair in the secret room, playing pinball in his hand.
At this time, he was not only injected with some special medicines, but also deprived of sleep for 52 hours.
Through the door of the secret room, a man and a woman are monitoring his every move. They want to use some drugs and non-drug methods to train him into a murder weapon. They have been training for 9 months now.
passed some data. The doctor of one of the trainers thought that John's training results were not perfect, but the woman did not want to give up. She wanted to use the final test to prove that John had met the requirements.
So she walked into the secret room, first chatted with John, and then sang a nursery rhyme in his ear.
Soon, John entered the world of illusion. In the rainy night, he walked through the grass with his comrades. He kept turning back, as if something would appear behind him.
Sure enough, three people appeared from behind them, and John took up the gun, killing one by one.
Screen switching, John is not in the grass on a rainy night, but still in the laboratory. There are three people shot by him in front of him.
, the experiment was successful.
That night, the doctor man wanted to explain his past to John. John was originally sent by the CIA to assassinate the doctor, but he was arrested by the doctor and became an experimental subject. These subjects are called "Cicadas" by them.
John has indeed grown a lot in various training, so when the doctor was about to inject John with a stabilizer to let him sleep well, John came to fight back. The movement design of this section is very smooth and flowing directly on the moving picture.
solved the doctor, and John also alarmed the other guards.
So he was in the medicine room, borrowing the corpse of the person he shot and killed before, and escaped the pursuit with blindfold.
was soon discovered by the woman in the person in charge, and the two had a fierce fight, and eventually ended with John cutting off a little finger of the woman and successfully escaped.
Time has come back to the present. The CIA headquarters in Virginia has received news that a North Korean general in London is going to talk to a woman named Tara.
Tara used to be a reporter. She once followed up and reported information about a retired nuclear bomb "Dagger 6", but was criticized full of loopholes and lost her job. After that, she switched to becoming a taxi driver.
Soon, CIA agents in London found her and persuaded Tara to see General Quan with the terms of helping her get her reputation back.
So Tara brought a monitoring device to see General Quan, but General Quan did not talk about "Dagger 6" at first, but another taboo topic "Stumbling block."
Then after he took off the monitor at Tara, General Quan explained his intentions: A rogue organization in North Korea has prepared funds and is preparing to buy the launch code of "Dagger 6" from a Russian. He wants to let Tara Pull to get the password before that.
Tara, who has a sense of justice, accepted General Quan’s entrustment and decided to set out to find General Quan’s daughter.
On the other side, the CIA executives were shocked to hear about the "stumbling block" project. Obviously, the project that was supposed to be closed was not closed as planned. The
"stumbling block" project means that the CIA finds people all over the world to do experiments, train them to enhance their abilities using drugs and non-drug methods, and then wait for orders and perform tasks lurking.
And these lurking people are called "Cicadas".
Obviously, John of 1973 is a member of the "stumbling block" project. The
project has not stopped, which means that there are still many cicadas around the world waiting to be awakened, and the next is the time when these cicadas are awakened.
First in Pyongyang, North Korea, an ordinary housewife's daily activities are picking up children to and from school and teaching pianists to little girls.
used to live a peaceful life, but changed when he picked up his son home one day. The son of
found an American-made game console in the mailbox. This thing is a contraband in North Korea. It happened to be another visitor tonight, so she could only hide it carefully.
then secretly opened it during the cooking space. Unexpectedly, the music would not stop. After hurriedly smashing it, she found a note with an address and a needle of medicine hidden inside the game console. The address on the
note was very close to the address of her tutoring. When she was tutoring again, she took advantage of the hostess to go out and used the timer to let the little girl contact the piano music, and she ran to the top of the building.
turned over on the roof, she was physically vigorous, and then relied on a rope to travel back and forth between the two tall buildings.
Obviously, she is a cicada who was awakened, and her task is to assassinate the person on the address.
Then in a certain sea area in Alaska, an oil rig worker is working hard. During the conversation between
and his co-workers, we learned that he has been supervised by his wife taking certain drugs.
On the same day, they were told that the drilling project they were currently working on was about to be handed over to the Russians, which meant that they were unemployed.
He met a Russian woman in the tavern in the evening by drinking alcohol, and then he helped her when she was molestedUnexpectedly, the fighting power was amazing, showing a fighting skill he had never had before, and even almost missed and killed someone. After
he went to the office of a Russian woman because of his injury, and then the woman suddenly sang a song during the conversation, which was the song "Brother Jacques" sang when John was awakened. (Sounds the same as our "Two Tigers")
woke up again, the man had been thrown into a glacier, with only a backpack full of packages and a photo in his hand.
It seems that the man is also one of the awakened cicadas. Could it be that the way to awaken is singing? The last picture of
came to Kursk, Russia. The old farmer had a hearing aid because of his old age, so he bought himself a hearing aid.
thought that he could finally hear the outside world, so he happily invited his wife to dance at home.
jumped and jumped, and he told his wife that he heard the sound of a strange electronic device, which seemed to be coming from the warehouse next door.
But his wife said he thought too much, and seized the opportunity to confiscated his hearing aid. The old farmer did not give up, he took advantage of his wife's sleep and secretly took back the hearing aid. Then he followed the sound and found an underground secret room in the warehouse.
went further, he also found the device that made the sound. Just as he was puzzled, his wife appeared behind him with a knife in his hand, and he was solved with a single knife.
After his death, the camera gave this sounding device, which was the "Dagger Six" mentioned by the CIA at the beginning, and this woman was actually the experimental researcher whose little finger was cut off by John in 1973. The end of the first episode of
also ends after John escaped in 1973.
But we all know that the "cicada" in the "stumbling block" project must take medication regularly, otherwise the whole person will suffer pain, so did John really escape his birth?
Obviously, judging from the broadcast of the first episode, the derivative TV series of "The Bourne" is a two-line parallel. There are still many unsolved mysteries in the story of 73 years, and the story that happened now also needs to be solved urgently. In the
drama series, several lines in several different regions are threaded, and then described in parallel, and then the two time lines are connected together in a very clever way. The hint in the last scene of
instantly raises our adrenaline and makes the scalp numb.
, like the hard core of the story, the series also continues the movie style in action and rhythm.
play is very hot, the first episode contributed 3 wonderful play, but different styles are equally good-looking. Although
does not have the gorgeous lineups of Dorian German, Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon, the main lineup of the TV series "Stumbling Block" can also be called a reliable combination.
has his debut, starring Jeremy Irving in Steven Spielberg’s "War Horse", with a rating of 8.1 on Douban, and Brian J, who has starred in the high-scoring American drama "Super Feeling Hunting" series Smith, the Russian actor Emilia Schuler who participated in "How to Train Your Dragon".
and our familiar Korean actress Han Hyo-joo surprise to join, but I didn’t expect it would be very interesting to play as a female.
In addition, "Hero" creator Tim Klin is the screenwriter and executive producer, and Ramin Bahani, who has directed "99 Homes" and "Fahrenheit 451", is the director of the play.
So after the first episode of the show was broadcast, netizens gave the TV series rave reviews.
"There is a feeling of watching the spy shadows back then"
"If every subsequent episode maintains the level of the first episode, then it can undoubtedly be booked as the best spy war drama this year"
seems, even without Matt Damon, The prequel episode of "The Bourne Shadow" is also worth chasing!
