Reviews for Spectre

Review - Spectre

The plot was difficult to follow at times. It wasn't always clear how Bond figured out where to go next, or why he thought the sketchy bit of info he had was reason enough to follow up on. Throughout the movie, there were reminders of scenes from past films, and the whole thing had a bit of a retro feel to it. Dan Craig is looking a bit old (he's 47) but still acts young enough to pull off the action scenes. Lea Seydoux was well cast as his girl for most of the movie.
