yeah pierce brosnan is my favorite, followed by connery, then moore. i liked casino royale a whole lot better the second time i saw, and knew what to expect. i didn't even like i thte first time. the new one was a bit of a let down, i'll have to watch it again, but it felt a little bit like a filler, didn't use enough bond music, wasted the talents of olga kurylenko, and had most of the good action at the beginning. still thoguh, an OK bond film is better than most films. and where is the gadget guy in the new films? The 'Q' actor died but 'R' is still alive. he needs some gadgets!
From Russia With Love
Another classic from Connery and co. Q makes his first appearance with bond wasting no time using his gadgets to save him in tight spots. connery continues to really come into his own as bond and his chemistry with money penny is always entertaining. faster paced than the orginal and more action packed, i really enjoyed it. however, there is lttle climactic action ending the film, and the mysterious number 1 (as parodied in austin powers) is left alive still at the head of the Spectre organization. Number 3 is killed but the movie still feels like the middle piece of a trilogy, kind of like craig's solace did.
still though, for a faster pace, more action, and an overall classic production, i give this one a notch up from the original.
9 Stars
the evil number 3(i was shocked to see such continuity and how blatant the austin powers parody was) __________________"You...complete me."
