Rest in Elegance, FOREVER, Tina!! You were too incredible for planet Earth.
So... I'm starting to think I did not give GoldenEye its fair day in court.
The biggest problem with Tomorrow Never Dies is the same problem with GoldenEye = James Bond is half scratched, half faded away from the start in any new rebooted form. We cannot forget that any mission he embarks on is funded by Ultra Corrupt Great Britannia. The villains are evil but they were…
Almost painfully unreal and unrealistic. Emotions are stunted for no reason except in waiting for a bigger moment.
I randomly decided to watch through this after YouTube Shorts' showed me a clip of Robert picking Anne up soup after offering her sushi and her nervously forgetting to have eaten. I hadn't heard of this before.
I thought it might be one of those movies. But. I'm disappointed they told us what kind of soup it was.
I knew real drama…
This review was written in 2011, I believe:
How many times is a rip-off able to surpass the thing it owes its' existence to? Only two films come to mind (Piranha is the other). Friday the 13th had great pieces but really didn't come together to be the best it could be (though it's still a personal favorite and always will be). Sleepaway Camp aims lower but nonetheless passes with Sleaze Honors. In the arena of so-bad-it's-good horror movies -…
#63 in my 99 90's Movies month.
Excitement and danger come first, characters come second. Which is totally okay in Spielbergia. Though those kids are incredibly annoying at times. ("Vegiesaurus! Meatasaurus!" ...Really, movie?) And some of the drama is pretty seriously forced down your throat (Laura Dern before eating the ice cream, Attenborough's super-scream on the telephone, Jeff Goldblum... in general, that kid and the tree climbing, and the fence jumping). But it is exciting and it never did skimp on the danger, did it? Holds up surprisingly well. I probably never enjoyed it this much.
