Spectre (2015)

Tries to fill some gaps but leaves some emptiness

Well the writers for Bond have gone and thrown it all against the wall to see what sticks in this semi completion of the trilogy of Daniel Craig efforts. It tries with a heavy hand to tie some of the history of the 50 years of bond films in all too often. A darker version to be sure of any of his predecessors, Craig plays the cold emotionless nature of the business against the feeling any kind of emotional attachment to the people (mostly women) that he uses along the way. There are repercussions for his actions however and he is brought to task for his transgressions along the way. Feeling a little under over the top is fine with me as far as the action sequences go. I prefer realistic reaction chase scenes wherever it may take them. Best example was the parkour chase scene from Craigs first turn at Bond. So if you're a Bond fan, you might appreciate this movie more as a "here is the reason he is the way he turns out' kind of film than the typical Bondfest. As for me I found it a little less enjoyable than Casino Royale or Skyfall.
