Critics Consensus

Spectre nudges Daniel Craig's rebooted Bond closer to the glorious, action-driven spectacle of earlier entries, although it's admittedly reliant on established 007 formula.

Perhaps it's my own fatigue with the Bond franchise and the knowledge of exactly where it will go and how things will turn out that makes the old-fashioned and nicely campy Spectre not as gripping a ride as I would have wanted it to be.

It is a tired retread that offers little new or original, taking 007 to the one place he's arguably never been before: irrelevance.

Rated: 2/4

Daniel Craig recently said that he'd rather "kill himself" than do another Bond film -- and in Spectre, his misery shows.

Like Connery, it’s hard to say goodbye to such an iconic character.

The less said about Monica Bellucci’s part the better. Anyone from that quite large group of fans wishing for years for Bellucci to be in a Bond film will surely be furious at all she’s given to do here, and how little of it there is.

Vague Visages

No longer tasked with putting the missing pieces of action, intrigue and effects together in our heads, the artifice of Bond is gone forever — and with it, any room for playful interpretation.

The technology is amazing, acting exceptionally good and absorbing. We were gripping the edges of our seats in some scenes.

Very enjoyable and was one of the best Bond movies we have seen for the first two thirds. Then it became very much as we have seen before. And it dragged. It was also very silly. There was no need for it at all. This was a clear case of "Less is More". We still give it four stars because it was excellent for the majority of the movie. Daniel Craig at his very best. We missed it the first time around and glad we caught it at the reboot.

Way too long and the main villains are completely wasted with a unnecessary story. But there's still good action and a return to form in terms of gadgets.

Still enjoyed this enough but just felt it was a drop too far from Skyfall. This went back towards the pure action without the depth and it wasn’t a welcome change.

A perfect movie for little boys and adults of comparable mental capacity. Just the opening scene was enough to realize that I can spend my time better.
