The movie, as same as "You Only Live Twice", was filled with rich oriental style. The place of the story was Hong Kong and Thailand (even there were some Chinese Communist soldiers in the Cultural Revolution), and the typical oriental style would make the estern audience feel familiar. The ideological struggle in the movie seemed be largely weakened, and the concern to new energy and personal battles between spies became new focuses.
Yuen Qiu, well known for "Kung Fu" later, also starred in the movie. At that time she was so young to have just a few minutes to perform a kung fu girl. The role of the American tourist was quite funny.
Note: No.9 of James Bond/007 series.
和《007之雷霆谷》一样,本片也充满了浓郁的东方情调,故事的主要发生地点就在香港和泰国(甚至还有文革时期的中共军队的士兵),典型的东方风情会让东方观众倍感熟悉。从故事上来说,本片中的意识形态的斗争似乎已经大为削弱,取而代之的是对新能源的关注和间谍个人之间的争斗。
本片里,后来在《功夫》中名声大噪的元秋也有出演,那会儿她很年轻,只有几分钟的时间表演一个会功夫的女孩。片中一个美国游客角色的设置颇有喜庆气氛。
