The action in the pipeline... recalls Bond with "the cockamamie machine" in the pipe in DAF, and maybe even the scene in the waste disposal pipe in DN. But here we have Denise Richards and some countdown peril to spice up things as well.
Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.
When Elektra finally drops the pretence... a great dramatic turning point. Though it was obviously coming... even during a first viewing without spoilers.

Again Marceau and Carlyle deliver the goods. Electra has Renard on a string.... and he likes that.
He almost sounds grateful to M. Ick...
This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?
Having Christmas's 'ass' joke... reminds me of Bond 'trying not to think about it' when looking at Tanya Robert's ass when they were hiding in that railcar truck in AVTAK.

A Startac!! I had one of those.

For me, Renard just looks like a short shady guy in a leather jacket who mutters unpleasant stuff. The sort you might see in urban streets at pub closing time on pre-lockdown weekends. Carlyle's a good actor but Renard isn't one of the great Bond villains.

Denise Richards' laughing at Zukovsky's predicament - "Haha, or sour cream!" I don't like Christmas in that moment. Bond's mockery of Zukovsky is okay because the two go way back as antagonists
... but she seems a bit surplus to the joke.

“The insurance company is never going to believe this!”
Of course we would....... the policy simply would exclude it!
"Q's not going to like this." The last Q-related joke in a movie which has Desmond Llewelyn in it.
