James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Quantum of Solace

“The first thing you should know about us is that we have people everywhere.” Quantum of Solace is mostly considered the weakest Bond film from Daniel Craig’s three films but that’s not to say it’s a bad film. It’s different, in many ways to the previous film, Casino Royale but in many other ways it’s much closer to […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Casino Royale

“Well, I understand double 0s have a very short life expectancy…” Goodbye Pierce Brosnan! After his contract of 4 films was up (and because he was getting on a bit) the search was on for a new Bond. A lot of criticism was leveled at Daniel Craig when he got the role, some seeing him […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Die Another Day

“You see Mr. Bond, you can’t kill my dreams. But my dreams can kill you.” Ah, Die Another Day. So many people rate this as one the worst Bond films (even though it has a solid RT score) and while I mostly agree with the criticism leveled at it, and the film certainly isn’t in my top […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – The World Is Not Enough

“Never let them see you bleed.” As Tom said on his review of Tomorrow Never Dies, Pierce Brosnan’s Bond movies go from best to worst. And that seems to be the case here as well. I like The World Is Not Enough, though. Not as much as the previous two, and it’s certainly far from perfect, but […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Tomorrow Never Dies

“There’s no news, like bad news.” Pierce Brosnan’s Bond film go in order of how good they are, getting worse the longer they go on. Goldeneye is his best, Die Another Day is his worst, and that means Tomorrow Never Dies is his second best. Well that’s what most people think, in my opinion TND is at least as good as Goldeneye. First […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – GoldenEye

“Closing time, James. Last call.” After Licence to Kill was released there were some legal problems. Legal problems which caused a 6-year hiatus and the loss of Timothy Dalton as Bond. But all was not lost, because eventually Bond did return. This time in the form of Remington Steele himself; Pierce Brosnan. GoldenEye is my favourite Bond […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Licence to Kill

“Then you have my resignation, sir!” Licence to Kill was Timothy Dalton’s second and last time as Bond and it carried on the harder edged bond that had started with The Living Daylights. Luckily for Dalton, his last film is not only good, but it’s one of the best Bond films of all time. The film starts with […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – The Living Daylights

“Whoever she was, I must have scared the living daylights out of her.” So that’s it for Roger Moore. He had a good run, but after how old he looked in A View to a Kill, I’m just glad he didn’t come back for another one. The Living Daylights is a great film, with a […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – A View to a Kill

“Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.” A View to a Kill was Roger Moore’s last film playing the role of Bond, and it’s a memorable one to go out on. Not necessarily completely good, but memorable. The starts off with a good opening sequence with Bond in Siberia investigating an Agents death, and then being […]

James Bond Blu-ray Reviews – Octopussy

“Mr. Bond is indeed of a very rare breed… soon to be made extinct.” Octopussy is an odd one. It’s partly serious, with the USSR side of things, and at the same time it’s absurd with 007 dressing up as a clown. But I can’t help but love it. I was actually surprised to find […]
