I saw it three times here in the U.S. On November 5th, 6th and 7th, and I think the U.S. critics are out of their minds. To me SPECTRE is better than Skyfall. I saw it first in IMAX and got two limited edition tickets! Way cool.
Lest we forget, SPECTRE figured into all of the Bond movies from 1962 to 1971 with the exception of Goldfinger. So for me, bringing back SPECTRE and Blofeld is big! Awesome in fact. It is just so Bond. Pre credit sequence was awesome! Loved the long un-cut shot. Also liked the fantasy elements. It is what diffrentiates James Bond from Jason Bourne for crying out loud!
Daniel Craig is just so watchable! He could make a crap James Bond movie and
I would still enjoy his portrayal of Bond. He just has it. I also liked that he is shooting isosceles instead of Weaver. A small niggle though, I could have done without the constant slide racking. How about a press check instead? Loved the use of the Omega, however if I'm going to drop my hard earned coin on a watch that is approaching Rolex territory, the bleeding thing better show up again in the next movie if you know what I mean. But I can't blame them. Capitalism at it's best! All in all, I loved SPECTRE!
