　 　 1905 movie network exclusive feature After nine years, the real Bourne finally came back. In the past nine years, two films () and three films (), both of which are classic spy films, have been released, and both of them have achieved breakthrough commercial success, but they have not been favored by the goddess of fate in the released market.

　 　 Whether it is the series, Mission Impossible series or the longer 007 series, every new work of the classic spy IP tries to save the audience with something new. For example, Rebecca Ferguson in Mission Impossible 5 is a female version of Ethan Hunt, and the British agent in Ghost Party is no longer fickle. Bourne Bourne 5 also tried to open a brand-new series through changes, and a familiar and slightly unfamiliar Bourne was born.

The first three series of Bourne ultimatum are adapted from the novel of the same name.

New story

　 　　The first three series of Bourne ultimatum are adapted from the novel of the same name, and the stories are all between jason bourne and the CIA. The process of the amnesia agent uncovering the mystery of his own life constitutes a narrative closed loop. Although the first three films of Bourne ultimatum were well-received, the subsequent works lost the support of the original, which cast a shadow on the re-enlightenment.

　 　 As early as 2012, the restart version was released. The producer of Bourne ultimatum 4 used Tony Gilroy, the screenwriter of the original trilogy, as the director and screenwriter, while almost all other creative staff were replaced. jason bourne, who has always been cold and unsmiling, was replaced by a super chatterbox (Jeremy Renner), which caused the new film to lose the style of the original trilogy and disappointed the fans.

　

Directors paul greengrass and Matt Damon of Bourne ultimatum 2&3 return to Bourne ultimatum 5.

　 　 Bourne ultimatum 5 can be said to be another restart of Bourne ultimatum. The return of paul greengrass, director of Bourne ultimatum 2&3, and Matt Damon, jason bourne, is undoubtedly an important guarantee for the return of Bourne ultimatum series. The protagonist of Bourne ultimatum 4 is an agent whose fate is similar to that of jason bourne. From the perspective of drama, it is more like excavating the residual value of the original series, while Bourne ultimatum 5 looks more contemporary, because there are many mappings about Snowden incident and the FBI forcing Apple to leave the back door.

　 　 Without the original support, the Bourne ultimatum series will rely more on real political events. The turmoil in the Middle East and Europe may turn these places into battlefields of Bourne, and jason bourne may travel around the world like 007 and Ethan Hunt.

Alicia vikander plays the ace analyst of the CIA.

New role

　 　 The strong joining of "Mechanical Ji" alicia vikander is undoubtedly a highlight of Bourne ultimatum 5. Wicander plays the ace analyst of the CIA and is the first female opponent that jason bourne faces. In the Bourne ultimatum series, the previous female images were mostly weak wives and good mothers, adorned with male hormone movies like vases. The appearance of Wicander changed the weak position of female roles in one fell swoop, and the confrontation between the two sexes was more tense.

　 　 Highlighting female roles seems to have become a popular change in spy movies. Mission Impossible series usually equip Tom cruise with an IMF team and a wife, and there is always a female agent in the IMF team. In last year’s movie, Ethan Hunt had no wife, and there was no female role in the IMF team. Instead, Rebecca Ferguson played the mysterious female agent. The latter is not only heavy in the scene, but also equally divided with Tom cruise in the action scene, and the relationship with the man, the enemy and the friend has also become a major attraction of the film.

Rebecca Ferguson in Mission Impossible 5 was well received.

　 　 The 007 series, which has always neglected female roles, has also begun to make a fuss about female roles. In "007: Breaking the Sky", the first important task of bond girl is handed over to Judi Dench, and the whole story is centered on her. The mirror image relationship between James Bond and the villain strengthens the drama conflict. Léa Seydoux in "Ghost Party" is undoubtedly the most special of all the female characters in the 007 series. She is neither a femme fatale (such as Eva Green and Sophie Marceau) who defrauded 007′ s feelings, nor a vase that Bond forgot after a one-night stand (too many). She not only reaps the love of British agents, but also has no tragic opponent at the end, which is not romantic like a spy movie.
