An endless sea, a person floating on the waves, life and death are uncertain.

After being rescued by the crew, he lost his memory, relying only on a bank account chip and his own excellent qualities, all the way through the thorns, just to retrieve his past.

This is the character setting of the action movie "Spy Heavy".

There are no suits and shoes, only ordinary dark coats, mixed in the crowd can not see that it is an agent;

There are no luxury suites, only ordinary motels, and sometimes even open rooms, only strangers' homes;

There is no luxury car full of various weapons, no advanced equipment that can save yourself from escaping, and you can only rely on your own hands and brains to complete the task;

There are no sexy and beautiful bang girls or female agents, only ordinary women with average posture and no household registration...

However, the male protagonist Jason Bourne relies on extraordinary skills and unparalleled brains to solve problems again and again, and to overcome dangers again and again.

And this film is relying on excellent character settings, compact plot, sophisticated production, has become the peak of the secret agent film in the minds of many fans.

The Series is based on Rudrun's novels The Identity of Bourne, Bourne's Hegemony, and Bourne's Ultimatum.

Due to the rich background and character plot of the original book, the entire film plot is extremely full, and the handheld shooting technique and the divine editing have become the objects of emulation in later action films, and the third "Spy Movie: Ultimatum" also won the Academy Award for Best Editing that year.

As the first part of the series, its status is self-evident, and it opens a new chapter in the great action film series.

The plot of the first part is very simple.

Bourne was rescued at sea, but could not remember the past, but found that he had superior physical strength and fighting skills, and through a series of investigations, Bourne found himself to be the number one killer in the CIA's "stepping stone" plan, after failing to complete the task, he was injured and drifted into the sea, while the CIA executives wanted to kill people, constantly sending killers to kill Bourne, and Bourne also became the most powerful "killer terminator" in film history. After a series of twists and turns, Bourne found out the truth, confronted his direct boss, and successfully escaped, and was reunited with his girlfriend, and everyone was happy.

The most fascinating thing about the film is undoubtedly Bourne's calm handling and decisive attack in the face of emergencies.

In the U.S. Embassy in Switzerland, Bourne was chased and blocked by the police in the embassy, however, Bourne was not impatient, calmly used the evacuation diagram on the wall, found the exit of the embassy, and used his superior physical strength to give the audience a freehand rock climbing, thus escaping.

In his own home in Paris, Bourne had the upper hand in a fight with the killer, using only a ballpoint pen and taking the lead in the face of his own unarmed.

The most exciting part of the film is the wonderful battle between Bourne and the killer in the home of the heroine Mary's brother.

After spending the night at the heroine's brother's house, in the morning, the brother's children suddenly said that the family dog was missing. Bourne realized that danger was coming again, and immediately decided to let his brother and his family hide in the basement.

Mary broke down again, and the anxious hometown words popped out. However, the trained Bourne was thinking about how to use existing conditions to solve the problem.

He found shotgun bullets at Brother Mary's house and immediately searched for the gun, and sure enough, he found a shotgun.

At this time, the classics struck.

As if in the explosion mode of cf games, Bourne wrestles with unknown killers, the enemy is in the dark and in the light, Bourne immediately explodes the oil barrel near the house, confuses the public opinion, and runs out of the chaos.

In the jungle, Bourne ran with all his might, dodging sniper rifle fire and fleeing into the deep woods.

Since then, the long-range advantage of the killer sniper rifle has been completely lost, and the killer has to change the sniper mode to the rifle mode.

However, as the ace agent of the Stepping Stones program, Bourne once again took advantage of the terrain. He suddenly shot into the sky in the forest, and the birds in the open space instinctively flew up after being frightened, and after landing, the birds instinctively chose to land away from where they were.

The killer panicked, which was tantamount to telling the enemy where he was. The killer once again changed modes, abandoning his main weapon and changing to a more flexible pistol intending to fight with Bourne.

However, this is exactly in the arms of Bourne, and the killer who changed his position is caught by Bourne who has changed his position during the movement, and he quickly follows up, and two shots knock the killer to the ground.

Subsequently, the killer died of excessive blood loss.

The whole process down, Bourne's operation can be described as one breath, no drag with mud and water, although there is no 007 elegance and Ethan Hunt's life, but it is domineering.

The emotions of the film's characters are also unique in the secret agent films. Unlike Bond's flower heart, the acquaintance of the male and female protagonists is purely a transaction.

Originally, the heroine Mary did not have much good feelings for Bourne, if it were not for money, she would not have anything to do with such strangers.

It makes perfect sense that Mary is making it difficult for her to live in Switzerland because of her passport, and she desperately needs a sum of money.

And it was precisely because of hearing this in the embassy that Bourne took advantage of her needs to avoid the police and go to Paris unconsciously.

After arriving at her destination, Mary also showed the normality of a secular woman. After seeing the handsome and golden man in front of her, Mary obviously wanted to continue her relationship with Bourne.

And Bourne also showed off her flirtatious skills, saying that she was the only person he remembered so far.

Adults know what's going on, and Mary happily goes upstairs with the man, who knows that this is the beginning of the tragedy.

The film does not set the heroine as a female agent or related professionals, but as an ordinary person.

Ordinary people will be overwhelmed and panicked in the face of emergencies; they will also see wealth and even color.

After a series of events, the two finally couldn't help but be together naturally.

It can be said that the whole film does not show off the thrilling and emotional rendering of general action movies, but fully expresses the details of urban life and the work of government agencies, so that the audience has a strong sense of substitution, as if they have been following the protagonist's adventures.

The male protagonist of this film, Matt Damon, became one of the hottest male stars in Hollywood through this film, and once became the male film star with the highest return on investment in Hollywood.

Previously, Matt Damon had become a first-line student in Hollywood with "Mindcatcher", and later stepped onto a new level in the acting industry because of the role of Ryan in "Saving Private Ryan".

And tough guy movies like "Spy Movies" have made Matt Damon truly become an action star in Hollywood.

Matt Damon used superb acting skills to bring Jason Bourne's low-key, calm and bold interpretation to the fullest.

The heroine is played by the German actress Franka Potante, an actress full of European temperament, who did not show off her sexiness in the film, but played her role as an ordinary woman in a down-to-earth manner.

And the actress herself has a superior temperament, purely for the sake of the role's need not to apply powder.

After the release of "Spy 1", it achieved a global box office of 210 million US dollars, which is slightly shabby compared with the high box office of the "007" series and the "Mission Impossible" series.

However, the quality of the film is well known, and with the good performance of the first part, the second and third parts have achieved high box offices of 288 million US dollars and 440 million US dollars respectively.

However, the IP of this series has now reached the end of the mountain, with the replacement of the male protagonist of "Spy Heavy 4", the film was boycotted by Matt Damon fans as soon as it was released; and the fifth part of the series, Matt Damon returned to the crew, because there was no support for the original work and the producer's quick success, the reputation of "Spy Heavy 5" was far inferior to the first three.

In recent days, action films such as "Fast and Furious" and "Vanguard" in China have encountered box office Waterloo.

In the face of exciting action scenes and cookie-cutter endings, the audience has long been tired of replacing them with comedies with tears in laughter, as well as suspense films with reversed endings, and so on.

Hopefully, there will be classic action movies like "Spy Movies" in the future.
