Did you have high expectations of it though? I don't disagree, I turned off after 20 mintues and even that was 15 minutes too many, but my expectations were not great to begin with.

Top Gun Maverick. And I haven't even seen it yet. And have no intention of doing so based on how bad the trailers are. All CGI rubbish. Some films should not be allowed to have sequels.

I particularly like this exchange;
But my favourite has to be this, at 2.02;
And a score by Ennio Morricone; what's not to like?

I don't think it fits the thread theme though since nobody could have had any decent expectations for that in the first place.

A fair point but I do have reasonable expectations for Ghostbusters Afterlife and we will see how that lives up to them when I download it at the weekend.

no expectations whatsoever but my god what a crock of poo
Slow to start off but stick with it. Plenty of nostalgic nods to the original, not just the obvious, that made it worthwhile for me.

I thought the first two Daniel Craig Bond films were hopeless- easily the worst of the series up to that point - so I've not seen the follow-ups. The just seem to suck everything that was good about Bond and bin it.

I generally prefer dialogue driven films, but I'm afraid that "woke" culture pretty much prohibits anything resembling traditional comedy.
I find it hard to find any new film to watch.
Not that there's any actual "film" involved in this digital era.
Less from the content perspective but more in terms of venue,
one wonders if streaming services are bringing the cinema era to an end.
That would be a shame.
I miss pre-covid nights out for dinner and a movie.

I watched it expecting it to be garbage but it wasn't too bad - very low expectation helped. However, I have ordered the original on Blu-ray to compare because I haven't seen it for years - I'm hoping it's still as good as I rememberOh god I forgot I wasted at least 2 hours of my life on that abomination.

Agree, he was genuinely sinister, whereas Remi Malek just followed the generic facial scar & foreign accent template

Silva was the bad guy I like the least from all Bond movies. He was like that as well.

Mathieu Amalric's character, the guy stealing the water in Bolivia or wherever it was in Quantum of Solace, was a pretty poor baddy.
