Foe with Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal and Aaron Pierre….Basically a three hander and these three are heavy hitters. Beautifully performed and heart wrenching. Written and shot with a crisp stillness. Very intense. I would be very surprised if Mesca…

Number six for me. I love the atmosphere. It’s eerie. There’s a murder mystery to solve, an eccentric villain who seemingly owns the hearts, minds and fears of a swath of people, and no one can be trusted. It feels like it’s a film from the previous…

Yes, @LucknFate , Burroughs and his books are the opposite of joyous. They always leave me feeling emotionally spent. I expect nothing less from this adaptation. However, as you're likely aware, the director is a gay man, and so therefore, I t…

I think this was my 21st. There are many elements I really admire about this film, but as a whole, I just don't get that punch in the gut that I want from a Bond film. Brosnan's second film really scratches that itch for me, at least for two thir…

My number nine. It used to be higher. Saying that, I can't see it ever falling out of the top ten. It was the first James Bond film I saw (it was on television, and I couldn't have been more than five or six). My dad, a Connery-only James Bond fa…

@HasanDafer We also watched Longlegs last night. My feeling is identical to yours, and I’d just like to add a creepy note: Cage’s performance was truly spine-tingling and frightening, and…….. He based his characterization on his mother, who su…

But I do remember my first reactions. Maybe they just got stuck in my mind and clouded my overall judgment? -QoS: "damn that editing team, I could barely see what was going on." -SF: "Ergh...they made Bond a weakling" -SP: "They sucked all the te…

If The Spy Who Loved Me were made today, there would be a 5 minute scene, probably after Bond kicks Jaws out of the window on the train, where Anya breaks down in front of James, and tells him about losing her partner in the weeks prior, and Bond, n…
