Movie reviews of Alex Brannan

The biggest clunker in the James Bond franchise. Review

A forgettable Bond film that marks the decline of the Brosnan tenure. Review

It has clunky moments and its overall plot line is absurd, but the delightfully over-the-top performance from Jonathon Pryce is enough to enjoy the camp. Review

A smartly-penned, well-acted addition to the James Bond oeuvre... Review

This isn’t Bond as usual, and the change of pace is what the franchise needed. Review

Strips away the over-the-top villainous scheme for a down-and-dirty espionage plot that is fun to watch unravel. Review

Walken Grace Jones are over-the-top, but there is fun to be had with their performances if some concessions are made by the viewer. Review

If you like a little camp in your Bond, then this is probably the film for you. Review

Unremarkable in its action moments, but it also is not absurd in its narrative thread. Review

Suffers from an unimaginative construction. Review

The action throughout the film is passable. Review

A solid outing for Roger Moore, as well as a strong platform to highlight Christoper Lee’s slimy evil persona. Review

The action scenes are marvelous to behold, but the performances are lacking and premise seems more conducive to a gritty crime drama. Review

Connery’s lack of conviction, the high amounts of camp, the rather lackluster plot, and the lack of a strong villain hamper this film considerably. Review

Lazenby is perhaps not the strongest Bond, but to a point his cheekiness is fun to watch. Review

As a general spoof of the spy genre, it falls sharply flat. Review

Connery, not getting paid as much as he would like at this point in his Bond tenure, is starting to phone in his performances. Review

Pacing is sluggish and the action scenes are few and far between. Review

Connery, again, gives a strong performance as the franchise spy. Review

The character of Bond is refined and perfected, and Connery delivers another suave performance. Review

The real shine of the film comes from Connery. He is the spitting image of the franchise spy. Review
