Thirsty Jim Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 It was the great Alfred Hitchcock who said " The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder. " He was right. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the negative comments over the many months it WASN'T released about gender-swapping, I wasn't expecting to enjoy it. But I thought they did it well and even that, anyone wanting to do another Bond movie after this one will have to do some rather creative writing. They certainly did a better job than some of the other franchises have done and the 'woke' stuff seemed to fit well without being in-your-face about it. And given what some of the other franchises have done, 6.5 is high praise indeed these days. I'd probably score it a bit higher than that - above the campy Roger Moore Bonds and below Connery or even earlier Craig movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't disappointed and yes i heard the negativity. my big thing was being able to sit through a 3hour movie and there was a few parts of the film a bit meh . me and my partner was lucky as she score a lux voucher from one of the parents of the kids she looks after. i just feel the james bond era is done and dusted now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I have enjoyed James Bond all through the start to Daniel Craigs last but I haven't seen that one yet. IMO Sean Connery was the best, but I also enjoyed Daniel Craigs efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say Daniel Craig played James Bond well in this Latest bond movie I would agree Sean Connery was a favourite actor of mine not only in bond but several others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just Connery but written by Louis Lamour - IMO the best Western writer ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
