Yet another Bond film

Rating: 7/10 (31 October 2015)

Yeah, it was okay. Quite entertaining but no more or less than any previous Bond films. There was no chemistry between Bond and Swann. Unfortunately I had to take a comfort break about half an hour in and missed Monica Belluci entirely, but apparently didn't miss any of the plot. Moneypenny wasn't in it enough. Q was nicely portrayed by Ben Wishaw. The action scenes were good, but it was soo slooow at times - and very dark (in terms of foot candles rather than plot).
I heard it was very funny and easily passed the "six laugh test" for a comedy (Kermode/Mayo). Er ... no. I laughed once and sniggered once, maybe.
The main thing I enjoyed was the incidental music. The fact that I noticed it says something about where my attention was (not on the plot or characters).
I hope Daniel Craig doesn't make another Bond film. I'm not a fan. The end credits said that Bond will return, but I hope someone "re-imagines" the franchise before they make another.
I've been a big Bond fan since I first saw Dr No at the cinema way back when, but it is definitely getting a bit tired. I need another Daniel Craig Bond film like I need a hole in the head. ;-)
