probably the best Bond film since Goldfinger


If you had said "since Thunderball", I'd agree.

You are being nice and devaluing the pile.

Tommorrow Never Dies is to Die Another Day as Batman Forever is to Batman & Robin. TND was just one big Bond Cliche.

I think the Bond movies need a Thunderball-esque movie right now. A classic "We've got 3 Days to Save the World" type movie that also isn't fast paced to the point where it feels rushed. I really hope they bring back Quantum.

Skyfall was excellent, Casino Royale was excellent-er.

I'm worried that with the re-introduction of Q and Moneypenny that some of those bad Pierce Brosnan Bond moments are going to return in the next Bond.

I do like that Voldemort is M now. Ralph Fiennes was a great choice.

I think some of you could be very successful salesmen in misery.

I understand not liking quantum. But Skyfall was pretty good, and the tying into original bonds was pretty damn cool.

Is it the haircut that angers some of you? I thought the movie was beautifully shot, like all bond films, had great action, and a good plot.

But some of you with your, "well i loved 9/10's of the film up until the way the credits rolled on the screen. Completely ruined the whole movie." You people need some simple joy in your lives.

I love how the new defense on the Mb is beautifully shot. Oh plot was even more nonsensical than normal which says a lot but it was beautifully shot.look at that magnificent tracking shot, nevermind the dismal plot.

movie just wasn't that good. More entertaining than quantum but so was my last bm.

I know I wouldn't be able to stand it now, but I LOVED Moonraker. It was the first bond film I saw in the Old Elmwood Theater. So, sure, it is very weak watching by today's standards, but it shall always have a fond place in my heart. Just don't make me watch it again.

Javier Bardem was awesome.
He was hardly in the movie at all. . . I thought the movie was a disappointment. It's overrated. Not bad, but not good either.
