An Embarrassment to Bond Fans

Rating: 4/10 (15 November 2015)

I came into Spectre expecting it to be better than the embarrassment that was Skyfall. Sadly I was mistaken. The worst part was the writing. From the opening sequence (why was the bombing foiled if everything was already in place), to the ending (how did M and Q get into C's office without anyone noticing), this was poorly written throughout. These examples are two of many more throughout the film. The acting was unremarkable. Lea Seydoux's character was poorly written and poorly acted. The car chase was boring and predictable. Sam Smith's terrible theme song Writings on the Wall may best describe the fate of Bond franchise if this embarrassment continues. Worst Bond film since The Living Daylights.
