Worst Bond Movie?
Nov 24 2011, 12:26 PM EST
It's not that it breaks all the rules, the problem is that it breaks rules that are good rules, rules that should not be broken. Even worse than that though, is you don't get any creative benefits as a result of the rule-breaking. Gunbarrel sequence at the end instead of the beginning, for example. Adds nothing.We were watching it again last night and, okay, now I understand how he managed to find Yusef. Dominic Greene told him all about it in the car ride out to the middle of the desert. The Yusef scene still has a tacked-on-to-the-end feel to it. And the money. Second half of Casino Royale was all about the money...where is it, who gets it, how's Bond going to get it back. QoS doesn't even mention the money. The action scenes are a fail. I fear they might be filed away as something else, since it's clear they were photographed that way to make trailers. Good for trailers. Bad for movie. The villains are a fail. They're just not menacing. The evil plot is a fail. Water monopoly -- pfeh. Worst of all, though, this isn't really a Bond movie. I have the other 21, plus Never Say Never. I waited a full two years before adding this to the collection. It just doesn't fit in. 5 out of 17 found this valuable. Do you? |

QOS was so bad, it should terminate the series. (I don't count the first Casino Royale as that is not part of the series.) QOS is the worst since Moonraker (which was pretty bad).

"Worst one ever was Never Say Never or the original Casino Royale"Absolute POS worst Bond movie? LICENSE TO KILL! GODDDDDD....AWFUL!!!! And QOS was very, very close behind that. And NSNA...although not a REAL Bond movie in the MGM/UA sense...it rates #3 on the all time worst Bond movie list. Do you find this valuable? |
