Movie was so subdued---In the other ones, Bond is pissed or gets pissed and does crazy stuff---Not so much here
Opening was good---BUT, Bond would've gone back to the gal he left at the hotel---He did say he wouldn't be long AND the battle with the helicopter pilot went on WAY too long. Pony tail guy was the assassin---why is the pilot so much more bad ass than him?
Also, I LOVE the stuff between Bond and Bautista---Awesome cat and mouse, back-and-forth---MORE of that was needed---More chasing of Bautista of Bond (and gal)---
Plane/Car chase was a cool new thing...but, at the end, bordered on unbelieavable---PLUS is Lea Seydoux indestructible? Major car crash and Bautista wacks her HARD, a few times on the train---Not even a bruise
Waltz: Never really did anything scary--The drilling part was cool, but no lasting affect on Bond---at least set that up earlier with Waltz drilling a nobody, for fun/revenge/information.
Everytime Bond shows up Waltz runs away--run away, run away---Lame family connection, as well---Never even hinted at, in any of the other movies---Good god, at least hint at a half brother or something--or point to a shadowy master villain.
BTW---The watch exploding on waltz, was good to give him the scar---But it should've put him in the wheelchair, as well.
Additional---HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR VESPA dying---Shit, this is 4 movies...LET IT GO?!
Cinematography was good---Made me want to go to italy, for sure, and to whatever mountain hospital that was.
Awesome car---Cool use of Q---Blood stuff was lame though---
Total waste of Andrew Scott, who would've been better in the Waltz role IMO--BTW, was he the one Moneypenny was sleeping with? It was strongly hinted at---at least get her to hit him, or something, especially when they have him at the end of the movie
