James Bond Films. Are They All That?

[normskih]

Not any more
Glorified CGI
Overly violent
Craig had all the charisma of a bucket of wallpaper paste.
Before him, Brosnan wasn't much better. Very little dialogue in his films.
The last decent Bond film (imo) was Goldeneye (Brosnan's first). Ever since then, I've not watched a full repeat showing of one.

Good film that.

Never really been a fan.

Saw a couple of the Roger Moore films when I was a kid and they were ok but the bits I’ve seen in the recent past have been very average.

Truth is they all pale in comparison to Connery.

They are very much of their time.

I re watched diamonds are forever earlier. The PC police would explode watching the uncut version.

I just realised, this thread is almost ten years old and I personally still have never heard anyone say, "All that".

All that

Coincidentally that's the working title of the new film.

Bond has been moved there as part of job restructuring within M15.

His romantic interest is fat Shaz who he finger blasts in the bogs of the Crown and Cushion before taking her to a kebab house.

M15, he gets relocated to Hulme and has to fight some smackheads and students?

Austin Powers, now there’s a good bond and has similar baddies like random task and fat bastard….love those films

Jill St John was not particularly unpleasant to look at.
