SPECTRE Spoiler FREE Reviews (Page 11 of 12)

...Saw it. IMAX cinema was 30 miles away, and I'm currently riding home, gathering my thoughts.

I'm seeing it again tomorrow afternoon, this time on a standard screen. Will probably not post a full review until I've seen it again...and can compose on something more practical than an iPhone with these sausage fingers 

One thing: SEE THIS FILM. If you're a Bond fan, don't let dodgy reviews put you off seeing it projected. No critic---or friend's opinion---should deny you such a grand time

I saw the movie last night, it was very good, but not as good as Casino Royale.  I have to see it again, but I would probably rate it right behind SkyFall, which is a compliment.  It is way better than Quantum of Solace.  I think everyone will enjoy this movie.

I found the first half of the movie extremely entertaining, but the back end lagged.  Craig was fantastic.  I thought Naomi was again very good, she and Craig have definite chemistry.  At lot of critics are praising Ben's performance, he is good, but have no doubt, it is the DC show.

I did not feel that chemistry with Lea Seydoux, but she looked great. 

Evil Bond

In the theatre now! 10 minutes!

Saw it for second time

Even better then the first    

2nd viewing in 35 minutes...and I'm excited as I was for the first one, as I'm taking my oldest son, Ian (he'll be 20 in three days)...who knows nothing about the film except for a couple of trailers I've shown him in the last couple of months    He is untainted by any spoilers, and I'm very much looking forward to his reaction.

Spoiler-Free Review

It was an entertaining movie and I got my $10 worth at the theater, but it's the weakest of the Craig films, IMO.  This is what happens, as I said, when you have a $300 millon dollar budget and bad writers.  The first two acts build up a good premise, but the third act played it very safe and failed to give a meaningful resolution.  The entire cast was full of great acting, but all of them felt under-utilized.  It has everything you'd expect from a 007 movie, but for the most part, it doesn't do anything amazing either.

6/10

Has its moments, but nowhere as good as CR or even QOS (which in my view is hugely underrated and misunderstood). Some sequences are simply gorgeous; others feel like the writers/director were going through the motions. Won't go into details to avoid spoilers.

I don't agree.  If you come from the camp that QoS is a bad movie, then you'll probably like Spectre more.  If you believe that QoS is merely underutilized, then that applies to Spectre too.

OK...looks like I'm on for an IMAX showing today. Then we will have the only opinion that counts.....my opinion Of course as my wife says: "Opinions are like a..holes, everybody's got one and you are definately one"  

Just got back from a second viewing - enjoyed it more second time - as plenty have said here...cinema was fairly full too 

Booked my tickets for tomorrow night in IMAX. Can't wait to go see it
