`The World Is Not Enough` boat chase voted London`s best film scene

The biggest one of which is the car in DAF changing wheels down the narrow alley..."Lean over!!!" 👇

changing wheels? 😖

Watch it again. Then it'll make sense! 😛

I'll try 😛

Oh yeah, the DAF scene. I had forgotten about that. Major error!

I'll check it this weekend I think....

I have a love-hate relationship with that boat chase scene. In parts it is brilliant, but in others its badly edited and contrived. There were too many shots of just one boat or the other racing along various bits of the river from angles that bore no obvious relation to each other. This can make the viewer lose their sense if orientation, and even more so if both boats arent in frame at the same time. I hated the boat leaping and racing along the ground and through the restaurant bit. Bond having disregard for his own safety in achieving his goal is one thing, but having no regard for the life of innocent bystanders in his pursuit is quite something else. And I dont buy the argument that, "well he did pap the horn on the boad as he crashed through the restaurant" Its moments like those that jolt me into reality and remind me that I'm watching a movie and I hate it when that happens. The rest of the movie was fine otherwise. More or less anyway.

I agree. The scene is clumsily contrived and edited IMO!

ah come on, look at a Moore movie and see how it is edited there, must worse 😖

Relax, old boy! Back in the good ol' Moore days the raised eyebrow one could get away with a few editing gaffes because the film surrounding them was SO much better! 🪩

yeah, take the focus off the guy 😉
