Still one of the most entertaining Bond films!


10/10 opening hovercraft chase, great Zao clinic chase scene, fun swordfight sequence, amazing car chase scenes... yes the Korean Colonel changing his race was badly written and the 3rd act on plane was a bit eh yet compared to other Bond films like Quantum Of Solace, this is sensational! Of course people forget how many critics and audience at the time of release loved the film (I saw it in cinema and the hovercraft opening was such a gritty pre Nolan Batman esque sequence to me).

Why was the colonel changing his race badly written? They explained how he was able to do it. Yeah it’s science fiction but it had an explanation and it had rules that the movie followed.

And for the plane sequence yeah the CGI was kind of obvious but Jinx and Miranda had a pretty kick ass sword fight. Also “time to face gravity” was such a badass line.
