Spectre (2015)
Directed by Sam Mendes
this is the 24th film in the Bond franchise staring Daniel
Craig, Christoph Waltz, Lea Seydoux and Ben Whishaw. Following up on
a lead left by M after she died Bond finds himself investigating a
shadowy organisation.
There is a lot of
potential in this film but it fell completely flat for me despite
it's attempts to be both politically relevant on surveillance and
move Bond forward as a character. Nothing ever really hits home and
this feels like a tired, token effort to close up a plot thread that
has been running through the Daniel Craig films. Sam Mendes brings a
good look and some nice locations to the film but that is not enough
to carry things.
3/5
