rikibethWell, THERE's two and a half hours of my life I won't get back.
Seriously. Opening chase/action sequence? Could have ditched it entirely with no loss. A five minute briefing from M would have covered it.
The only real enjoyment for me was seeing bits from the novel come up in sequence. Like the creation of the drink called the Vesper. Which I'm going to have to try someday, just to see what it tastes like.
And I'm going to need screencaps or promo photos because I loved her eye makeup.
But other than that?
Bleah.
Also, Showcase Cinemas Buckland Hills really needs to turn the HEAT on in their theaters in November, please. Cold air blowing on my feet is no way to make me happy to be sitting still. Had the same problem for Nightmare Before Christmas 3-D. Next time, either I'm going to the Crown, or I'm sneaking in a BLANKET.
G'night.
