Trouble is they run through the entire film like the words in a stick of rock.
I think it was a nice follow on from CR and kept the same kind of balance for this new James Bond.
Can't tell you how pissed off I was when I heard Q was returning to the films! He should have ended when Desmond Llewelyn retired.
CR and QoS are right up there with the early Connery Bond films as far as I'm concerned.
The dialogue is a lot snappier than most Bond films. I'm reminded of TB in that regard. There are so many great little lines (not all from Bond) and moments peppered liberally throughout the (very slim) runtime that you're never left waiting for the next block of entertaining scenes.
I'm somewhat nostalgic for QoS now. At the time I was highly disappointed, and I still feel this is film best viewed as a standalone rather than a part 2, but on balance we were still kind of on track here. It's not till 4 years later that EON had shrunk back into its shell. SF feels like a film from the mid 90's by comparison, when hacking was the next big thing. QoS holds up better, I think.
The action still sucks though.
Hated it ! Yet oddly many of the things I ranted on about, I now like a lot and
Even think the film looks very stylish.
I wouldn't rate it as highly as some, but it would happily sit in my top ten Bond
Films.
The party scene always felt very 60s to me, might be the costume design.
Agreed. And this is a plus point of the film.
Bingo. They were the perfect fit and exceptionally well tailored and they're Tom Ford suits.
( I think Finnes not Dench as M ) ;)
Craig looks fantastic in the tight fit suits of genius Tom Ford. Period. Full stop.
Wouldn't be a stretch of the imagination, given how tight those suits look.
But it was a stretch.
Agreed.
