If you blame "Bourne ultimatum 5" on hand-held shaking photography and routine plot design, then the same criticism will certainly be imposed on the second and third parts of the series. Ironically, it is these "problems" that are now criticized by everyone that make the whole Bourne ultimatum series famous.

The success of "regular" genre movies

In any case, the success of a series of films depends on finding clues from its first film. This iron law can be used not only in the sci-fi scene in Star Wars 4: A New Hope, but also in the creation of alien worldview. It can also be used to redefine "suffering" and "redemption" in Saw's first book; It can also be used in the fantasy adventure and exotic exploration in the first part of raiders of the lost ark. Naturally, when the first film Bourne ultimatum was released in 2002, everyone had the impression that its portrayal of spy images, unique image style and gray theme betrayed the traditional spy films represented by James Bond.

The creation of a brand-new image style does not require this style to stop there, but, like a political system, once it can adapt to the local social system for a long time, it should evolve over time and strengthen the framework of this system to a certain extent, thus forming a stable ideology and political model. Like the American Constitution, the genre style of Bourne ultimatum series continued after the first film is also a strategic discourse of Hollywood in commercial films. To some extent, domestic movies can't maintain the style continuity and the "similarity" of this genre, which leads to a large number of movies earning market share through youth romance, magic movies and dark horse comedies. The end result is that domestic audiences are disgusted with movies that earn their eyeballs through "explosions" and naturally invest in Hollywood's stable genre films until death does us part.

Bourne ultimatum 5 is a film that can be compared with the second and third films in this series because this genre style has been basically inherited in the fifth film. Hand-cranked photography, quick-cut editing style, multi-scene scene switching, and the opposing mode of villains are all inherited in an orderly way in the fifth part. No wonder many fans complain that this film is not innovative. This so-called "no innovation" may be the reason why this film can still win word of mouth among a wider audience. As mentioned above, the success of genre films often lies not in "innovation" but in "replication". Driven by Green Grass and barry ackroyd (the film's photography director), the image rhythm of the whole film is even better than the first three films. Pushing and pulling the lens quickly plays a vital role in creating a sense of the scene of the character and quickly forming contact with the surrounding environment. Coupled with the efforts of Christopher Lauser, greengrass's royal editor, in the hands of the genius who won the Oscar for best editing, we can also see how the skipping and rhythmic action group pushes the plot of the film step by step. It has become a well-known principle in the Bourne ultimatum series to use pictures instead of dialogues.

In order to increase the sense of form of this type of film, an important element of this film, the soundtrack, has become an unforgettable label for countless fans. The bass string is the beginning, and then the drum chords are quickly intertwined. John powell, the composer of the first three films, continues to bring his unique "spy March" in the fifth part of this series. It is rumored that Hans Teemo once helped him a lot. It's no wonder that his music is full of majestic strings, but the dangerous and meticulous introversion is different from Teemo's usual grandeur. In any case, with the cooperation of editor Lauser, Powell's original music is like everyone's ear when watching the movie Bourne ultimatum. Without it, in any case, we can't feel the rhythm and shock brought by this unique spy film. It is worth mentioning that Moby's "extreme way" is like an apocalypse. When Heather Lee watched the video and Bourne left on Maple Leaf Road, the theme song suddenly flashed in the vast space with the zoom lens. This amazing degree will always remind people of Bourne Bourne's sudden swimming into the water, which is like Stoke's last "discoloration".

Of course, no matter how many technical factors, without Matt Damon's participation, the audience can't substitute more emotions for the previous work, just like Bourne ultimatum 4. Even if Jeremy Renner plays well, he can't keep up with the combination of Matt Damon in the Bourne ultimatum series. Some people even arbitrarily call the perfect continuation of this type of film "fan movie", and it is actually too civilized to evaluate his remarks by "not knowing the production mode of this type of film". The real reason is that he may be used to the visual "enjoyment" of vulgar youth films and blind arrogance caused by his inability to agree with the excellent genre films produced by Hollywood studios.

In fact, with the continuous introduction of Marvel superhero movies, a problem has been placed in front of the development path of commercial movies, and that is how to treat those super movies with "repetitive" plots? After the release of Bourne ultimatum 5, this issue was pushed to the forefront. Many people blame it for its repetition with the previous work, but they can't deny its Excellence. According to this logic, if the time sequence is not considered, Bourne ultimatum 5 will be recognized by these people, but they can't accept this "second success". What I want to say is that although we need innovative and avant-garde movies or literature and art,

After nearly two months of bullets in the summer vacation, perhaps our domestic production companies should reflect on how to "copy" the previous "success" instead of always thinking about "innovation" and "failure".
