Maybe that "silver and blue for up" and "brown and gray for down" is every action movie these days.

The look of it. It looked like Bond was chasing the cat in the same town Leo was running from nameless henchmen after he meets Tom Hardy.

Like I said before, it's about the look of the movie.
It looked a lot like a similar movie that came out a couple years before.
Considering how this is a noticeable trend with Bond flicks, it's worth noting.
