  • The underrated Daniel Craig Bond film followed by the most overrated one. You can see why Skyfall was a huge success as it transcended a standard Bond plot with a simplistic story with which the audience were happy to overlook the plot holes. I'd…

  • After such a break and a sense of completion in Ultimatum I'd wondered if I could ever begin to care again about another Bourne film...but I jolly well loved this. Quite a packed cinema for a Wednesday night in a small town too. Audience all seem…

  • I think for the most part the Craig era will be well regarded but as far as standing the 'test of time' that will all depend on what direction future Bond films and other spy action/thriller films go in.
