Tying up loose ends!

Rating: 10/10 (1 November 2015)

First of all I enjoyed this for its classic bond feel..... The figure in the dark.... The villains base... A mute henchman.... Etc
Without giving to much away the best thing about this picture was its link to the previous three films and the reason why such characters became involved in the story. Previous films were one off stories with very little mention of the past ...with the exception of the opening of "diamonds are forever" initially following Tracey bonds demise in "on her majesty's secret service".
Before the direction of Sam Mendez bond films were rarely dark.... But to me what gives these new films their edge is the ability to cross the line of violence, something I feel is closer to the books of Fleming and indeed reality, before this only a licence to kill showed real edge.
The question now is just how do u top two truly great films, if Mendez refuses one more then I pity the new guy and indeed a new bond.... The bar is high and I fear could only be lowered, prove me wrong!
