strimmer_13 Posted November 18, 2021 Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 Epic rant ahead Honestly I thought it was a awful film. A pg John wick. You can say its with the times, but I can't. I had a numb *** and couldn't wait to get out the theatre, easily felt a hour too long. Sami Malek, great actor in other films, about the most unconvincing 'baddie' in the whole franchise. He set out to do and accomplished it in the first half of the film, no reasoning why he's being a **** for the rest. Felix, why did they have to snuff you out? Honestly thought he deserved a spin off on his own. Everybody's suddenly turned gay. Q's announced he's gay, new 007 is a lesbian (and a not very convincing 007). Moneypenny should of had the role, at least she had the background. Did someone read a manual to write this? Very woke, very politically correct. Modern times I suppose.... He has a baby. Err, pretty sure Sean Connery and Roger Moore banged the hell out of half the world, chances are he should have about 20 floating about. From the start it's a joyless, soulless bond (again). No charm, the smooth charismatic bond has fled the theatre. You just knew he was gonna snuff it before it started. When Craig announced its his last film, it was always going to have a 'endgame' ending (to me anyway). He put in a solid performance for his final, just shame the script was junk, but as he said after skyfall, if he ever done another bond it's only for the money. Seeing as they try and add realism, why, when he was shot in the shoulder, did he brush it off? Never mind slamming into a wall at 90mph. Even John wick would take a paracetamol and a plaster for that one. The gadgets were ****, that's a main staple in bond films (tho drummed down for Craig's). A watch that emitted a emp, woopy ****in doo. You know its desperate when the biggest baddest thing in the film is that db5 kicking ***. I left going home dying to let the misses turn on geordie shore so I could be distracted from the £4 (thank god) fee I paid to witness the massacre of the bond franchise. Most people I know feel the same, and if they don't they all say the same, why did they have to kil him off. I wish Danny Boyle had made it. Oh I will say Ana de Armas was worth the £4 actually. She's stunning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted November 19, 2021 Report Share Posted November 19, 2021 I thought it was rubbish but won't say more except to say that the past few Bond films have been continuity disasters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An absolute stunner! Am looking forward to seeing her role as Marilyn Monroe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCat Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 I quite enjoyed it however there can be no more bonds. And that won't be the same will it? After all bond wasn't a very nice person, he shagged all the ladies, drunk all the booze, had a gambling addiction and killed those he didn't like or annoyed him and didn't loose 1 wink of sleep over any of it. That's what made him bond. I'll miss bond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markm Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) No more bonds? it was a mediocre film by the way…. The reboots are endless. 1. He jumped down a shaft into water. 2 A book closes and he’s stood there. 3. He’s knocked out, being tortured. 4. He wakes up in hospital. 5. He wakes up in someone’s bed. 6. 48 hours earlier he planned something and that didn’t happen. Edited November 20, 2021 by markm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCat Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 But it's bond not Harry Potter, there can't be any more James bonds. Unless they go into the realms of dallas or whatever it was when the chap wanted writing back in so they "woke him up" in a shower after a year long day dream.

Only joshing, what I mean is as it’s fiction they can do what they want, but I agree, it would stretch even fictional realms of fantasy and make a farce of it really.

GingerCat Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Santa is alive and well in this house, the obedience he gets from about now till the big day is quite remarkable. Only had to invoke him once and they stopped their messing about and snapped to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
