I agree with a bunch of this. Hinx was so impressive, and honestly deserved a more dramatic death.
Watched on bluray but it didn't help. Still crappy on a small screen.
I still have it in my top five.
Agreed. Wholeheartedly.
Agree with this, too. SP is imperfect, but there's still so very much to like about it.
Hey I'm with you buddy. I feel like I watched a different movie then everybody else.
That's why it's 25 for me.
And it's a shame because Mendes's blocking and framing and some of the acting is indeed incredible... so why WHY???!!!
Nothing in DAD is nearly as artful as SP but yet because DAD at least succeeded in my opinion being what it was trying to be it beats SP.
The first half of Spectre is amazing to me, then it just peters into a garden-variety Bond film where tuxedoes pop up on secret missions, and that's okay, but the drama just emptied out of the story at that point.
And again, that was the easiest escape in a film series that has some pretty easy escapes at times.
Don't know an official rank but it's out of my top 10.
I liked L'Americaine because that's one of the few times that I personally saw the Craig of old. He seemed more his old self (including usual blue polo shirt) there and less affected. More natural. Especially when talking to the rat and swilling back the liquor.
Of course. Just as QoS' Tosca Sequence is better than most of CR and SF.
To me the film only begins petering in the London coda, which feels like a tack-on even more than the Venetian coda in CR. Still, the sequence is not bad, just relatively uninspired and conventional.
Well I hope it will grow on me. Right now, it is very near the bottom of my list. I think it is still better than Quantum and DaD but that does not saya lot. I had no great expectations but the film was really boring. The climax was horrible, in fact it was an anticimax. Everyting was way too easy for Bond, especially towards the end of the film. The villain was wasted and the score forgettable. But I really liked the little mouse :-)
Of course, I can see some of its flaws and missed opportunities, but I don´t understand such a mixed and divided reaction. It is entertaining, arty, well performed, it has an interesting political sub-plot and it has all the key ingredients of a classic Bond film... I can´t wait for the BD!
That is how I feel about DAD. Awful from start to finish.
