DN: A rough jewel hewn from solid rock infused with vast depths of never-ending potential.
FRWL: An intricate and compellingly beautiful mosaic.
GF: A delicious and nutricious pop infused piece of hard rock candy which never depletes. Similiar to a Willy Wonka ever-lasting gobstopper.
TB: An immensely potent explosion of sun drenched warmness and wet eye loving booty.
"And apart from that, Mr Giuliani, how was your walk downtown?"
) I'm sorry, NP, but why are you comparing me to the former mayor of New York? :v Is it some kind of 9/11 reference?
It's an update of the phrase:
"Apart from that, Mrs Lincoln, how was your night at the theatre?" if that helps.
Got it. I thought it was something like that, however I wasn't sure.
"He’s a man way out there in the blue, riding on a smile and a shoeshine. And when they start not smiling back—that’s an earthquake. and then you get yourself a couple of spots on your hat, and you’re finished. Nobody dast blame this man. A salesman is got to dream, boy. It comes with the territory." Death of a Salesman
GE- "Flawed, yes, but also brilliant and arguably the last truly great Bond film as well as the one time that everything in a Brosnan film came together" 4/5
TND- "A few terrific scenes but will forever be remembered as the Bond film which introduced the annoyingly equal Bond girl." 2.5/5
TWINE- "Messy, but enough brilliance to overcome its many flaws and to emerge as a modern-day Bond great." 3.5/5

Here's a few of the films described in a sentence:
THUNDERBALL
Thunderball's lack of tension, erratic pace, and prolonged underwater sequences mar what is otherwise an enjoyable romp that showcases the classic style of Bond's playboy lifestyle in some beautiful locations with some memorable characters and demonstrates why Connery is the quintessential Bond.
YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE
You Only Live Twice is an over-the-top adventure set in Japan that sacrifices substance for spectacle on an epic scale.
DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER
The clever humour and return of Sean Connery don't make up for the the weak plot, lacklustre climax, and drab Las Vegas setting, meaning Diamonds Are Forever comes across as not only a low budget attempt to recapture the glory of Goldfinger, but also a near-spoof of the series.
MOONRAKER
An attempt to cash in on the Star Wars phenomenon of the 1970s, Moonraker overdoes the spectacle and humour to make up for an outlandish plot.
TOMORROW NEVER DIES
An action-packed film that rarely lets up, Tomorrow Never Dies' still pertinent story provides Pierce Brosnan a few moments to add emotional depth to Bond while remaining the cool, suave hero who can survive any situation.
