Rewatched Ronin just before New Year aswell. The film is basically an example of what would happen if the likes of Bond and Mission Impossible were set in the real world rather than a glamorous fantasy world. I like that the public are constantly…

The Wild Geese First time watching this in its entirety. Obviously some great Bond links as well as some instantly recognisable sound effects if you know your Bond films. Richard Burton is excellent too. Otherwise it's kind of unwatchable now for…

Craig's normally a restrained actor who keeps his physical movements to a minimum. In the prison scene he's suddenly waving his hands about in an OTT way. I get that the intent was to show the poison was on his hands, but surely they could have d…

I think he's a bit off in the first scene with M ( his delivery of "does this mean you've lost confidence in me"), but he's good with Louis Maxwell. In the first part of the film I think he's better when he doesn't have much dialogue, like the op…

No. It's probably my favourite 80s Bond film actually. A more grounded performance from Roger and some lovely locations (I've actually booked a holiday to Corfu because of the film next May). Roger "leading the troops" to St. Cyrils is one of …

I've just realised that I've never posted my thoughts on NTTD. Seeing as I gave it a rewatch a few days ago I thought I'd do so now. Initially when walking out the cinema I thought it was a decent if flawed Bond film. I liked the controversial…

The Q scene in GE is an example of where the nerves show to me. It seems like both Broz AND Des are uncomfortable infront of the camera, they are talking AT eachother delivering their lines rather than TO eachother. Certainly in comparison to the ne…

I think Craig gives possibly the best Bond performance in the whole series in CR (yes that includes Connery). He's certainly given a lot more to play in his debut than any of the other actors. With regard to Brosnan, he admitted that he was ve…

It's probably the best shot film since Moonraker.

As much as I love GE I think Royale is the more polished film. It sets out its tougher tone in the opening sequence (possibly my favourite PTS in the series) but adds the more colourful glamorous components as it goes along. The violence however …

GoldenEye is mostly well edited and directed and has a verve and energy to it that LTK frankly didn't have. GoldenEye also has more atmosphere to it than LTK does. I like LTK but overall it has a very flat un-stylistic look to it. Most of the locati…
