  • Was also disappointed at the amount of gratuitous murdering in the film

    Mentally remind yourself of Bond escaping the volcano in You Only Live Twice, with henchmen dying left right and centre.

    Yep, it's you that's changed.

  • No spoilers but there’s a couple of scenes that struck me as unnecessary killings of someone the hero doesn’t like, which has possibly happened before but I don’t remember seeing it. 007 had license to kill anyone he needed to in order to accomplish the mission, but not to kill just anyone he pleased. I think it takes away complexity from the character, and the scenes felt a bit out of place anyway.

  • [I am joking about the spoilers btw, the gag is that every film in the franchise gets to the same end by more-or-less the same devices - doesn’t mean they’re not hugely enjoyable - same with PG Wodehouse books]
