It's not right that Bastista, even with just saying one word, outshined Waltz in this movie. But he did.

The movie was okay for what it was. But if you going to have an iconic villain like Blofled, at least utilize him properly if not elevate him to give reason why he's Bond GREATEST ADVERSARY.

Also the whole Patriot Act plotline was completely weak. The full circle to Casino Royale and Skyfall (even THEY think Quantum Solace doesn't exist) felt slightly forced and leave more plot holes than filling them. And even though there's some vintage Bond stuff that's happened in the film, there's also those horrible cliche shyt you hate such as the monologuing. Everytime I see Blofled start monologuing I keep thinking Austin Powers and Dr. Evil.

All that said, it's still a okay film. The opening long track sequence was brilliant. Daniel Craig was great. Ralph Fiennes was cool. And its visually stunning. But outside Batista GOONIN' in and out the film, there's not much to be hyped for.

Just saw this…

Mexico was the best part
The main girl can't act (People behind me were literally laughing at her scenes)
Confusing ass plot
Felt like they were imitating a MI movie
Hans was a average ass villain (I compare it to TDKR, Bautista was Bane and Hans was Talia)
Daniel is getting too old and needs to retire Bond
Stupid cliches ex. Villain supposedly dies in an explosion but shows up at the end with someone the hero loves being held hostage but the hero decides not to kill the villain for xyz.
The movie was way too predictable

Casino Royale > Skyfall > Spectre > Quantum Solace imo

You are in for a treat my friend, the homage to OHMSS will make you nod your head with approval.

That was perhaps my favorite part of the film.

That's not a good thing.

:usure: Craig is a great bond, he did his thing in all of the movies. The directing, acting were all great in Craig bond movies. The writing was not.
I love Mission impossible but that mask shyt is cheating. Every time they are in a jam they pull that mask out:martin:

Going to see it one more time to make sure how I feel about it is how I feel about it plus I just want to see it again. I liked it but it's definitely got one main issue for me that holds it back

The whole needle scene and Bond being ok still, the random explosion or that Blowfeld wanted to make a random booby trap with a net at the old MI6 building?
