Hard to Rate This; First Half Okay, Second Half Bad

Rating: 4/10 (7 July 2017)

Overall, I recommend watching the first half, and just stopping the movie half way though, or skipping from the half way point to the last ~15 minutes.
What stood out to me from this movie, is that this seems like an attempt to return to the more classic Bond type of film. He's overly aggressive with his approaches on women, just like classic Bond, and the action is absurdly unrealistic, again like the classic films. But the action scenes are so well choreographed, that it's easy usually easy to over look. At least for the first half of the film. However, the absurdity of the action, and the way some characters seem to escape what seems like certain death, without explanation, starts to become annoying and detract from the story. Sub-conflicts that should have ended sooner, and progressed to the next plot point, just keep going and going.
There isn't enough substance to this movie to justify its length. Although the premise certainly had the potential to justify the length, if the story had more to it. I usually feel that the typical 90 minute length of movies is too short, and am a big fan of longer movies, in theory. But the writers only wrote enough for a 90 minute movie, yet this was stretched out to 148 minutes. This movie could have been decent if they cut to down.
