#SPECTRE FILM 2006 MOVIE#

Note: As is the custom with Bond movies, Spectre showcases lavish opening titles. Bond wasn't quite up to the task in Spectre, but it's still a solid add to the much-loved franchise, for appropriate audiences. To match or even top the nuance and intrigue of that film would be quite an undertaking. Mendes and Craig set themselves up for it - with such a great Bond film in Skyfall back in 2012. Foul language plays a part and the opening scenes are set in Mexico City during a visually stunning Day of the Dead festival. However, one of the Bond girls is seen sitting on a bed after she and Bond have been together, in corseted lingerie. Bond's sexual escapades are thankfully only alluded to in Spectre, with passionate kissing the most you see. At one point, a henchman pokes the eyes out of another bad guy before snapping his neck. Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of action and violence, some disturbing images, sensuality and language, Spectre contains all of the questionable content one might expect from a Bond movie. Even the psychological tricks played on Bond don't seem all that chilling. Moneypenny's strong presence in the storyline fades, as does the movie's ability to surprise you. Its extreme car chases, elaborate sets, and intricate fight sequences can't fully compensate for the film's muddled latter acts. Spectre contains quite an interesting mix of nods to past films, so much so that you lose a little bit of the Daniel Craig Bond that's been on the scene since Casino Royale (2006).

Spy extraordinaire James Bond's on trail of a new villain.

Rated PG-13 for various reasons (explained below), Spectre is not a film you'll want to see with for your family. This continuation in Bond's storyline offers moviegoers more spectacle and insight into 007's past, but it lacks the edge, clarity, and impact of Skyfall.

The success of its predecessor, Skyfall, sets up this new addition to the more than 50-year-old James Bond movie franchise rather well. With the price tag of a whopping 300 million dollars, Spectre better rake in the dough at the box office this weekend.
