Am I the only one who does not like the PTS all that much, at least the boat chace, which was overlong? I might have enjoyed it more had it not been in the PTS. I loved the bit in Spain though.
There's just so many things I like about the film, that I very rarely realise that some of the dialogue isn't quite up to scratch.
With the cast I'd put Elektra as one of the top villains and top girls in general, Zukovsky as a great informant turned ally.
The PTS is also the best in the series for me. The way he races past westminster then suddenly tower bridge is in view always get me (as someone who knows the Thames very well). I'm imagining that scene shot again today with the way that route has changed, it would be even more spectacular.
Well, it makes great use of the London location, which is a good start already considering Bond is a British icon. But asides from that, the stunts are good - with the Q Boat flipping over the Speeder being the pick of the bunch - and Maria Grazia Cucinotta proving herself an excellent foil to Bond, even with his gadgets.
It could have been edited a bit tighter in some parts and the underwater collar fixing should have been left out but overall, it's a fabulous sequence.
It can, in theory, but CR was a bit of a one-off, being in black and white and introducing not just a new Bond but a reboot. Brozzer's third film demanded something bigger, in common with most actor's third movie eg Craig's in SF.
