Not only liked it, but loved it. This is probably the first new Bond film that I've seen in theaters that I absolutely loved without any issues whatsoever. |

| I remember adoring CR when I first saw it in theatres.
To this day, I find that I actually don't like CR as much as I think I do, because my memory tends to block out the parts I don't like. Namely the entire first act after the PTS. |

| The only Bond film I remember not adoring in theaters is TWINE. It was only my 4th at the time, though.
Yes, I walked out of DAD loving the film. I was 13. |

| I loved CR back then but even then knew there were a couple of issues, the third act being compromised. I've found more issues throughout the years, the first act wasn't one of them though besides Bond being the worst tail person. I like that Bond is the reason for Le Chiffre's problems and that the card game is a rematch. Besides the issues, I found it thoroughly enjoyable on my last viewing. With SF at #3, I guess that places CR at #6 in my rankings. |

| I remember liking CR, though thinking it was "wonky". But I thought it was a step in the right direction. I saw QOS knowing nothing about it and enjoying it a lot. Then I hated it on DVD, and then it sorta went to the middle or so.
SKYFALL really impressed me. I think the central story with an over-the-hill Bond who has to really work hard got me. Plus the fact that it was so incredibly strange to see a well-written Bond film again. I'm eager to see how it plays on repeat viewings. There were so many moments that really suprised me, and that I really loved. I was quite thrilled by the experience.
But we should probably keep this thread just for responses to the original post. |
