You getting me scared, watched part of it, yet to complete the rest today.

It's not great. And its not horrible. It is all over the place in pacing.

What pissed me off was how they tried to make bond a helpless fool just to make the female leads stand out as strong. Feminism is a cancer.

Bond movies have always sucked. Boring live-action, stylish, and sophisticated inspector gadget lite who also happens to be a ladies man.

I've never enjoyed them as spy films or thriller films or even action films.

Pheeeeew. Thank God am not alone or abnormal. Never finished one, except the free ones which came to the hood each 10th day of the month complete with a narrator, doing his thing in Kiswahili!

Ni kama me and you watched 2 different movies. In Cuba, bond literally did all the work except when he had a little help from the white/or was it Latina girl. when his girl and kid got kidnapped, he litterally fought a lone. When they attacked Poison island he literally did all the work, all the black girl did was kill the scientist and get the girl and kid on boat.

So where was he helpless while the females were strong?

I am not talking about where Bond fought on his own, just look at the fight sequences where the two female leads were involved. They were so gimmicky. Cracking jokes, drinking in the middle of a fight. It really made light of the Bond character who is often depicted as cool, calm and calculating. Watch Spectre and Casion Royale masterpieces.

I prefer the Mission: Impossible series more. At least there's humour and real-life stunts.

MI series runs circles around Bond films. Bond, James Bond may have the history and the fanbase but Ethan Hunt is 93.63% more capable and entertaining.

Jack Reacher too. It has believable story lines. Too bad there are only two instalments in the franchise...
