I thought about it a little more and I might change that to a 6.5/10.. MAYBE 7/10. I almost forgot about theSpoiler:That was awesome. But yeah, I'm not a huge Bond fan, quite frankly. And some stuff was the oldest shit in the book, like
komodo dragon scene.Spoiler:Totally didn't see that coming from a mile away. But I guess James Bond films aren't there for their originality. That and it needed more hot Bond-chicks and less M.
when James bond sinks down into the water as if we think he died, and then he puts the knife in the guys back.

I actually meant that as sarcasm. Of course he didn't die. That's not the point, the point is he arrives and
Spoiler:Seen that a million times in movies/tv. Oldest trick in the book. It's usually done by more minor characters, but still.
puts the knife in his back.

Apart from killing of M, I don't see much of a plot or storyline behind this movie.
It was a vengeance storyline, plane and simple. Kind of refreshing for that in a Bond movie. For once, the villains come after the agency rather than vice versa.
I give the movie somewhere between an 8 and an 8.5. Potentially in my top 5 Bond films. The final act was pure entertainment, and the rest of the movie was filled with very Bond-like moments.

I just wanted to know if the film was good or not and if it was worth my time seeing it tomorrow. That's what these threads are usually for. But hey, thanks for spoiling the movie brah! 👆Spoiler tags are a feature for a reason. Use them.
I always avoid threads like this for new movies I have yet to see. It is taking a chance at a spoiler every time, and thus not a wise decision. I just use Rotten Tomatoes to read a few synapses of the movie, and they avoid spoilers.
For me this didn't feel like a Bond movie, cause Bond got shot which I've never seen in a Bond movie, M died (I think I can say that without spoilers now as the cats out of the bag) and there was no Bind girl at the end really that he gets with, sure Moneypenny was there but he didn't get with her or sleep with her or anything. The homoerotic scene was quite funny actually, the audience laughed and so did I but at the same time I sat there with my jaw on the ground after James was like 'What makes you think this is my first time?'

They wanted it to feel like a more realistic take. Bond's not invincible. He's one of the best secret agents out there, but let's be real; he's human, he errs, and there's a chance he could get hurt. And no, he's never been shot before now.
As for Eve...I think the shaving scene and the banter in the casino pretty much spells out that they at least got together that once.
Bond: It's amazing what you can do with an extra pair of hands.
Eve: I don't remember her exact words, but the way she agreed implied that she let him take that shirt off after they were done.
As for the flirt scene. I too laughed, but James doesn't seem the type to go for guys. He's way too into women to be believable as even bi-sexual. Maybe he meant he'd gone undercover before and had to "act", or maybe he was just keeping up the banter to keep him from going too far.

I really don't think it's meant to imply anything. I think he was just trying to show the guy that he wasn't getting to him, that he wasn't intimidated by it. After I saw Die Another Day, I vowed that I was done with James Bond movies, cuz it was soooooo bad. Well, I broke that vow because there's been some good ones since then. But the day that Bond gets with a dude is the day that I seriously will be done with the series.

I actually didn't know she was dead.Could you guys stop being stupid and just use spoiler tags? It literally takes all of 3 seconds to type [*spoiler][*/spoiler]. Yes, one could just not enter this thread. But, we have spoiler tags.
