The devil is in the details

Rating: 5/10 (10 January 2017)

But remember, I'm saying 5 out of 10 compared to other James Bond flicks. Sam Mendes just couldn't wrap his head around the whole Bond thing. It's nice that the themes were contemporary.--A black Moneypenny. But there were just so many false notes, even for these changing times e.g. Bond shoots from an aeroplane at a speeding SUV containing the maiden in distress that he is trying to save! I know we are all equality for women but.. Really? The I.T. villain picks up and aims an automatic pistol at M without noticing its light weight due to no bullets. The whole color of the film never departed from brown and grey. James makes some several consecutive kills with a submachine gun from what looks like 500 yards. They should have used a different lens.
