Loved it..

Rating: 7/10 (26 February 2016)

Hard to write about this movie. On the face of it there was nothing special about it at all. Yet I still found the constant level of action truly absorbing and entertaining, even though nothing much stood out. The acting was good and convincing in the traditional James Bond tongue in cheek way. Perhaps I am biased in loving to see so much of London too but I loved the locations and the lighting treatments too. Yet I have to return to the point that I really cannot point to any one thing that stood out as being extraordinary in this movie! Not one incident, stunt or chase. Hard not to compare with the latest Mission Impossible movie with its extraordinary stunts pushing the boundaries in very visual ways. In explicably I was more consistently absorbed by Spectre than MI. Somehow though I was totally absorbed in the escapism of it all, and recommend this movie without hesitation.
