Great to hear! I hope all the reviews that roll in continue to be this positive.
The alternative is great fight scenes in elevators! :-D Diamonds Are Forever, Quantum of Solace, Captain America: Winter Soldier, Die Hard: With a Vengeance.
I almost always forget about the True Lies fight scene. What a heavy-hitting beatdown that one is.
It´s a metaphor for our constipated society and what is necessary to mend it ;-).
...how thoughtful of them!
Oh I agree, it’s more of a rhetorical question.
That's the problem, too much focus on character. These are supposed to be spy thriller/action/action thriller films, not kitchen sink dramas. Cruise has craftily found the hole left by Bond, and has plugged it with M:I. And while there is more drama in the recent MI films, it hasn't gotten out of control.
Wow...just wow!
The focus on character is a huge part of what made the Connery/Moore films so fantastic. As one of the producers once said when asked what differenciates Bond from other action heros, "Bond has got style". I think what you mean, @MajorDSmythe, is focus on personal drama. The old Bond films weren´t concerned much with character development, but they had character all over the place.
The parkour scene in CR was probably the last truely marvelous Bond stunt.
