    So the film ends. Always a treat, no matter how many times I’ve seen it. Not sure when, but LALD will be up next for me.

    And now the torture scene. Faithfully adapted from the novel!
    Improved, actually. Improved to be presented on film. Some incredibly bold and successful choices here.

    Resuming my reverse Bondathon which really got stalled with the Brosnan films, TND up next great music intro on the Bond50 Bluray, the best thing about this film is the score IMO

    Subtle spy camera monitoring the terrorist arms bazaar, though I do like this opening scene

    I remember watching this at the cinema and buzzing off the score it got me immediately locked into the film, admittedly GE score has improved over time though Arnold's score is Bond in TND

    M and Co work effectively as a surrogate audience, it really helps to build up the tension and appreciation of what Bond is doing.

    Brosbond's pre title sequences were always exciting

    Colin Salmon facial expressions are gold

    TND is a solid entry. Seems to improve for me every new watch.

    Just wish K. D. Lang's track was playing instead of Crow's, I have never liked Crow's vocals

    TND title sequence and music is lacklustre combined, the energy of the pre title sequence is drained by it

    This is definately one of the least cinematic Bond films, its not shot particularly well.

    Not a fan of Carver that's one of the reasons I struggle with this film, admittedly the writers give Pryce some horrendous dialogue

    Pryce's acting is just as terrible as the dialogue

    The mission briefing scene with M in transit is amusing

    Bond in Germany best part of the film, Brosnan is great here

    Bond and Paris Carver is really bad, though Pierce took that slap well.

    Brosnan and Hatcher zero chemistry

    'Hostile Takeovers' great line

    Brosnan's/Bond's irritation to what is going on around him works well.

    Teri Hatcher drags this film down to TV soap level, Bad casting
