After 51 years and 23(+2) films, 007 is still looking pretty good for his age and drinking habit. The Six bonds of George Lazenby, Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig have jointly starred in the most successful film series of all time. For epic opening sequences, silly quips, gadgets, martinis, bikinis and memorable villains look no further than Bond... James Bond.
At one point in 'Die Another Day', M (Judi Dench) says to Bond (Pierce Brosnan) 'While you were away, the world changed'. 'Not for me' replies Bond, before returning to what he does best: getting the ...
The latest Bond has all the right ingredients - beautiful heiress, complicated gadgets, Eastern European pipelines, devilish holograms - you name it, it's got it. Unfortunately the resulting film ...
OK.....where do I start? Is it a good film?........undoubtedly. As good as the critics would have you believe.? Probably not. Casino Royale is a tense, action-packed and well directed thriller. It ...
Without a shadow of a doubt this is the superior Bond film - only Mission: Impossible and True Lies come close and they weren't even really real members of the 007 franchise, just 'homages'. ...
Being a bit of an old fashioned Bond fan I was both looking forward to and slightly wary of Casino Royale. However I made myself keep an open mind… and boy am I glad I did! Here is a great film, ...
The producers of the Bond franchise have taken on a lot with their 21st film. Ian Fleming’s first and arguably nastiest novel about the character, a new actor, and the question of how Bond fits ...
Whisper it if you dare. Casino Royale is at times a boring movie. Long anyway at 144 minutes, it struggles to live up to its barnstorming quarter-hour free-running chase sequence, one of the best ...
Connery ever so slightly pantomimes moral outrage for the camera, having electrocuted a man in a bath, while recovering his gun from the girl who has double-crossed him. "Shocking. Positively ...
Quantum of Solace is the second Bond to feature Daniel Craig. The first, Casino Royale, was a great success, revitalising the franchise. Sadly this followup lacks the strong narrative and genuine ...
I liked it. The locations are gorgeous (and not a Bullingdon Boy in sight), action packed (though a bit playstationy) and Craig is good as a risk taking (ok he says, getting into a car with a ...
Yesterday I went to see Quantum of Solace. Casino Royale was excellent. Quantum of Solace is the worst Bond film. The film is a complete disaster for the producers, the screenwriters and the director.
Standard Bond fare, though inferior to first Daniel Craig outing. Less gripping, maybe because compulsory section with Bond in grip of villain is missing. Action sequences were probably good but you ...
Bond meets Bourne in a blizzard of blurry action that leaves you shaken but not stirred. Poor Daniel Craig. An utterly believable Bond, he's thrown himself into the reborn franchise. But even he must ...
Within the first two seconds of Skyfall audiences are treated to a familiar and satisfying injection of some iconic music. It serves to perfectly encapsulate the shift back towards a traditional 007 ...
It's almost as if Quantum of Solace never happened. This much-hyped instalment of Bond continues the rolling reboot begun in Casino Royale, delving into Bond's background, setting up the ...
I think it’s fair to say there were some high expectations for this film, particularly as Casino Royale had shown us how good the new-era Bond could be, whilst Quantum of Solace cruelly ...
Somebody (British Intelligence) has left a list of every single secret agent in the Western world on a laptop in a block of flats in Istanbul. Somebody else breaks in and pinches the hard disc. Could ...
I may be the only dissenting voice about this film, but for me, the massive, massive hype ruined what was merely a good Bond film. It wasn't remarkable; there are a few things in the plot that ...
