When the news of Daniel Craig becoming the new 007 first came out, many 007 fans around the world collapsed, the media directly asserted that he was not suitable, and even set up a website to boycott him, mocking him as too ugly - compared to his predecessor Pierce. Brosnan, that appearance is really a hundred and eighteen thousand miles, and he is still blonde, the first blonde Bond in history, his face is wrinkled, even his height of 1.78 meters has been criticized, in short, it is a bad review.
At that time, Craig was 37 years old, just an unknown small actor, who had never played the main role of an action blockbuster, and played a leading role in a literary film or something. He himself spoke quickly, was very blunt, was not good at words, did not drink, and even he himself wondered why he was looking for me. But the female producer at the time thought he could do it, tried to defy the crowd, and signed him.
Craig knew that he had been selected, so he immediately ran downstairs to the supermarket to buy wine, adjusted a vodka martini for himself, the standard of 007, and ended up drunk for three days. The next step is high-intensity training, he spent 15 years for the role of 007, made 5 movies, and has always maintained his physical fitness at the peak, which shows his strength. Not only that, but his heart is also very strong, and he spent an evening watching all the taunts and scoldings on the Internet, and then calmly threw himself into the filming the next day.
At that time, a paparazzi reporter even sneaked into the film's filming location in advance, dug a large pit in a beach, buried himself in the sand, and secretly captured Craig slowly walking from the sea to the beach. After the photo was released, people suddenly found that Craig was in good shape, and praised him for having attractive chest and abs, and as a result, the wind of public opinion immediately turned.
Sure enough, as soon as he appeared in "Casino Royale", his tough guy style immediately impressed the audience, and the chase in the land of East Africa at the beginning shocked the audience, and in the dust, Craig made the enduring 007 image in the audience's heart a huge subversion.
He was not the kind of stunning Brosnan had when he appeared in the GoldenEye, personable and cynical, with a playful look in his eyes, a dazzling variety of weapons, a clean pat on the sleeve after a fight, and the whole person was a gentleman.
For an agent, Brosnan is too conspicuous, no matter where he stands, it is so stand out and eye-catching. On the contrary, Craig, who is gray-headed and close-to-the-body, is more like an agent, hiding in the crowd, even with his bare hands, he can defeat the enemy, because he is a weapon in himself.
Compared to the perfect Brosnan, Craig was not as handsome as he was, his looks were rough, and his teeth seemed to be a little wrapped up, but his blue eyes were very good-looking, and inside were deeply melancholy, serious and sincere. Whether to his lover or enemy, his attitude is not ridiculous, and his love and hate are equally real.
He is not the 007 who used to be like a god, he can fight more than before, not in a random way, but in the fist to the flesh, he will also be injured and bleeding. Not only will the body be hurt, but the emotions will also be hurt, no longer the spy who has been in the kaleidoscope of flowers and leaves, but has become an ordinary person who is emotionally fragile and vulnerable.
Once the true feelings are moved, it can be said to be fatal to the spy, but it is also precious, because this is the time when the true human nature is revealed.
The first time Bond strongly exudes his inner feelings in the film is that he and Madeleine are trapped in the car, and a group of ghost party members outside shoot at the car with guns, and the bullet marks on the window glass are getting deeper and deeper, which may be broken at any time, and he stubbornly refuses to make any counterattack.
Because he felt that his wife had betrayed him, the loyalty of his lover was more important to him than to death, and his anger could almost drown out the fierce gunshots outside the car. He stubbornly listened to her scream in horror until it seemed that it wasn't she who had drawn the enemy in, and then he began to fight back. Even so, he dragged her all the way and finally tucked her into the train, and the breakup between the two at the station was touching, but he still said to her without mercy: You won't know, because we will never see each other again.
He retired for five years, so that others thought he was dead. And his comeback again is also for his family, not for the sake of national missions, as in the past.
When he and Madeleine reunite to dispel the misunderstanding, seeing the little girl, the wife of five years apart says that it is not yours. This did not affect him at all to protect the little girl later, and the audience saw 007 Bond, who actually began to make breakfast for his daughter, and even prostrated himself for her to the villain. This is completely different from the previous image of the macho 007, the screenwriter has carried out a Freudian soul digging for him, showing his past history, this life and the desires of his heart, he is an orphan, he only wants to have a home, live with his lover and children, not his own children and do not care.
When an agent who walks off the altar, a killing machine that never fails, suddenly has love and love, entanglement and attachment, it means that he has weaknesses, and "home" is said from the mouth of an agent, the ending is also doomed.
In Craig's five 007s, he has always wanted to retire and live in seclusion with his lover. However, all the way he is losing, from Ms. M, to this film's friend Wright, the ghost party leader broffie who is playing with him, even the code name 007 has been lost, and finally even the wife and daughter who have just reunited and the happy life at his fingertips can never be, it is the last straw that overwhelms him, doomed to a tragic ending.
Each actor will give his temperament to a classic role different charm, Craig has a loyal temperament, his interpretation of 007, no nonsense, concise and clear, is a tough guy, trustworthy, but also subverted the previous assembly line 007 image.
Strangely incomprehensible is the two villains, the ghost bald head Broffie and the masked man Safin, their behavior is illogical, never expected that the masked man finally let go of the little girl, a trump card will be thrown casually, the thrilling chase in the forest, is it a game? The expression on the face of the laborer who hurt the money and finally lay in the water seemed to say: I don't care who wins, you can lose anyway.
