The thread title is such that the answer must be 'no'. I don't think any Bond film can achieve 'universal praise', especially in these opinionated times. With the benefit of hindsight it should perhaps have been expected that the successor to the mo…

Enjoy @FoxRox. They are absolutely top notch action film making. 1, 4,5, & 6 are my personal faves as well, but I think there's something to enjoy in all of them.

Bond wasn't the sleaze in GE. It was Onatop. That is why the music fit the scene and the character. It was rather ironic, given the other messaging in GE.

I would say it is the most iconic film of the 1960s. Perhaps more so than GF, if one strips out the Aston. The imagery from YOLT is quite definitive for many of the public when it comes to Bond.

Holliday Grainger. Either as Bond babe or new MP opposite Bond #007.

DN ² - I enjoy Craig's earliest two entries, especially the first one. However, this is a pretty easy choice for me. DN is one of the best Bond films and introduced the cinematic iteration of the character in such a profound and iconic manner. It's …

I didn't have any problem with any sequence in MI:Fallout. The halo jump sequence seemed like a lot of work for what ended up onscreen though. Was it thrilling? Sure, but imho not any more thrilling than the similar sequence in TND. I actually think…

I personally am in agreement with the gist of McQuarrie's comments. I may have a different opinion on which actor best exemplifies the attributes he calls for, but on the whole I think he's correct, at least when it comes to cinematic Bond. I thi…
