keven Q @kevenquinlan 6d Ok, they were going for a more real grittier Bond with Dalton at the helm. Meh. It plays like a kind of ho-hum DEA drug movie and eliminates a lot of the reasons Bond is fun to watch. It wasn't bad but nothing to write home about either- and I think people try to say it's under-rated, I don't think it is, lol.

There's an edge to his Bond that works remarkably well with John Glen's vision for these movies. Here it makes the sillier stuff stand out in good ways but the movie never feels unbalanced. See more gungi @WhatWhere Jan 30 This is a Bond film that I enjoyed. Jumping from each decade and watching one movie makes you realize the progress the films make. The action is more choreographed, the scenes better shot, and the general depth of the story well thought out, giving it more nuance and characterization. Timothy Dalton proves himself to be a legitimate Bond and particularly excels in the action scenes. The locations are beautiful, and the collection of soundtracks complements the style and aesthetics of the movie. The direction uses a few witty and clever moments during the action scenes, and developments in technology enhance the possibilities of portraying these, even though they sometimes become excessive and over the top. While the movie does well overall, the ending and its sudden involvement of political revolutionaries seems too hasty and could have been given a little more attention. At the same time, the movie extends its stay toward the end for too long. Overall, Dalton’s Bond needs no hiding.

Dalton se posiciona entre o charme clássico de Connery e a leveza de Moore, com um Bond menos mulherengo e mais focado na missão. A trama ainda carrega o peso da Guerra Fria, agora incorporando o conflito no Afeganistão — lembrando, em alguns momentos, o clima de *Rambo*. A produção mantém o estilo típico dos anos 80: narrativa mais lenta, enredo extenso e ritmo cadenciado. O retorno do Aston Martin é um acerto nostálgico, assim como a presença de M. No entanto, ainda não vemos grandes saltos tecnológicos nem cenas de ação capazes de impressionar visualmente. Os efeitos especiais são funcionais, mas modestos. Dalton entrega um Bond mais humano e vulnerável, ainda encontrando seu espaço no papel. Maryam d’Abo, lembrando fisicamente Natasha Kinski, tem boa atuação e foge do estereótipo da Bond Girl puramente deco Nota final:*6 See more guest @bigdddd Dec 14 Dalton as bond? im in!

Also Timothy Dalton is an underrated Bond See more Read all reviews
