《侠盗一号：星球大战外传》：唤醒内心的希望
May the force be with us.

快过年了——对绝大部分华人朋友来说没有错，但是对于《星球大战》粉丝来说，他们其实早已融入了节日氛围。
2015 年 12 月 18 日，《星球大战：原力觉醒》上映，这一天距离上一部星战电影《西斯的复仇》上映已经过去了 7 年。一年后，《侠盗一号：星球大战外传》如约而至（北美 12 月 16 日上映）。可以说，接下来的几年里，每到年底就是星战粉丝的节日，就好像过年一般。今年年底《星球大战8》将会上映，而《韩索罗外传》也已经定档 2018 年。于是粉丝之间会有「星战大如年」这么一说（我瞎编的～）。
记得 4、5 岁的时候父母带我去电影院看星战前传第一部《幽灵的威胁》，光剑、镭射枪、白兵，还有那场飞船比赛的场景都历历在目，当时我幼小的心灵受到了冲击，更是一下子打开了新世界与原力的大门。当时也不太懂，看完后也没有像现在类似「入坑」的感觉，这就导致我的原力探寻之路被耽搁了。
直到看了《原力觉醒》，这才把「星战大坑」给填起来。虽然没有到达漫画、小说、电影内容通吃，星战史倒背如流的地步，但不管怎么说我还是自认为是一名（可能比较）合格的星战小粉丝。
《侠盗一号》上映当周，我去电影院观影了两遍，看第二遍的感觉比第一遍激动许多，应该是电影本身魅力在不断吸引着我的缘故吧，但我更希望是原力的作用（笑）。看完总在想，为什么当初《原力觉醒》不多看几遍呢？
好了，废话了一大推，来谈谈《侠盗一号》电影本身吧。
《侠盗一号》是《星球大战》真人电影系列的第一部外传，剧情发生在《新的希望》之前，主角琴·厄索（菲丽希缇·琼斯 饰）、卡西安·安多（迭戈·鲁纳 饰）、飞行员菩提·鲁克（里兹·阿迈德 饰）、杰达星球守卫奇鲁·英威（甄子丹 饰）和贝兹·马彪斯（姜文 饰），以及被重新编程的帝国机器人 K-2SO 一行人，计划偷走帝国大规模杀伤性武器「死星」的设计图，故事就这么展开了。
这个任务非常危险，甚至还会面临各种圈套。影片描述的就是这么一群普通人，临危受命，一路上与帝国斗智斗勇的故事。
全片对之前的星战电影有许多致敬的地方，比如预告片中出现的，琴·厄索、卡西安·安多上尉与 K-2SO 第一次乘坐 U 翼离开雅文 4 号卫星的镜头，与《新的希望》中 X 翼离开雅文 4 号卫星的镜头几乎一致（上图）。（感兴趣的话，你可以移步查看《侠盗一号》设定解读与彩蛋梳理）
《侠盗一号》中对星战六部曲的致敬点不如《原力觉醒》多，而且每当致敬要素登场时，留给影迷、粉丝鼓掌的时间也不像《原力觉醒》那么明显（后者有明显的停顿感和预留时间感）。对于普通观众来说，好处是在观影时不会过于尴尬——如果你看过《原力觉醒》粉丝专场，一定经历过一波又一波的掌声与喝彩，这对于可能是普通观众的你，应该不太友好，至少从观影体验角度来看是如此。
《侠盗一号》的致敬内容出现时，观影者通常还没来得及（内心）鼓掌与稍微深度一些的思考，角色已经开始说话，或者是进行下一步动作了，这时无论是普通观众还是粉丝，都已反应不过来到底是要鼓掌还是不鼓掌，只好专注地看下去。所以为什么说《侠盗一号》影片节奏的展现方面十分出色，这就是其中一个原因。
好莱坞大片向来以特效著称，但《侠盗一号》中的场景仍然多用实际道具拍摄，而非 CGI 特效技术。值得一提的是，由于《新的希望》中饰演威尔赫夫·塔金的彼得·库欣已于 1994 年逝世，所以《侠盗一号》中的塔金由外貌相似的演员盖伊·亨利饰演，卢卡斯影业利用表情捕捉和 CGI 技术在后期进行修复，还原了彼得·库欣的样貌。同样地，影片最后出现的莱娅公主的脸，也是用 CGI 合成的。
采用真实道具拍摄，好处非常明显，尤其是对演员。主角琴·厄索的扮演者菲丽希缇·琼斯在一次采访中说，与导演加里斯·爱德华斯共事的经历非常棒。她提到拍戏时不再需要依靠站在绿幕前表演的方式，假装太空船飞来飞而去做出反应。琼斯觉得采用真实道具，拍摄起来也变得轻松不少，导演尽可能让片中环境变得真实可感。
另一点在于，《侠盗一号》发生在《新的希望》之前，所以能让观众一眼就能从电影画面中看出「年代感」就非常重要了。并不是说《侠盗一号》的画面有故意做旧的感觉，而是影片尽可能采用真实道具拍摄，带给观众的观感是完全不同于后期滤镜或特效所带来的那样。
最后简单谈谈本片的配乐。本片电影原声由作曲家迈克尔·吉亚奇诺（Michael Giacchino）创作，以往的星战电影配乐都有知名作曲家约翰·威廉姆斯（John Williams）参与，而《侠盗一号》则是首部没有威廉姆斯参与音乐创作的星战真人电影。当然了，本片的配乐也有向前作致敬的地方，比如一开场用笛声描绘浩瀚宇宙，这里与《新的希望》的开场极其相似。
如果在观影时稍加留心的话，你会发现《侠盗一号》的配乐与星战正传配乐有很大的不同，这里所谓的不同主要指主旋律与主调。影片有很多处你可能以为要播放经典的「噔噔噔 噔噔 噔 噔噔 噔～」的地方，结果音乐却在最后时刻来了个 180 度大回转，亦或是节奏突然放缓。这就是在提醒着你，《侠盗一号》不是星战的正传，而是一部起补充剧情作用的外传作品。
《侠盗一号》是一部完整的电影，它向我们讲述了一个完整的故事——一群人前往死亡之地窃取敌军机密文件，最终成功到手。所以对非星战粉丝来说，基本不必担心「没有看过前作，看《侠盗一号》会看不明白」的问题。
而对于星战粉丝和影迷，就冲着影片最后 2 分钟，与《新的希望》影片开头无缝衔接的场景，多刷几遍《侠盗一号》也值回票价了。噢对了，机器人 K-2SO 的表现也十分亮眼，看完《侠盗一号》，我对它的喜爱甚至已经超过了 BB-8……
如果《侠盗一号：星球大战外传》有副标题的话，我觉得「唤醒内心的希望」应该是最合适的。
