Review of Spectre (2015) by Brendan N — 15 Feb 2016
Disappointing and just one long tease for a movie. The henchman was wasted and provides the only real highlight scene of the film. I just expected way more from Mendes after Skyfall, much like the MI series, having a fresh director is a better idea but even MI is recycling directors.
It's super hard for directors to better themselves and they bloat the film without making creative choices, they have action scenes added just to service the fans. I am shocked this took so long to produce and the wait wasn't worth it, the series mythology implodes here.
The ending is a huge slap in the face and having Daniel Craig return seems utterly pointless since his arc seems complete. I can't see killing yet another girlfriend will trigger another addition to the series, I'm at a loss here, this is not James Bond.
