  Spectre 2015

  ★★★ Watched 08 Mar 2025

  3-3.5/5 
  Loved the stunts, Blofeld reveal, Andrew Scott as C (what isn’t he good in???) and Dave Bautista, as well as the subtle nods to many other Bond movies. The pacing feels a little off, but I still enjoyed this entry in the Bond universe. I like that the Daniel Craig Bond films have their own arc, too. Also this film has some of the coolest sunglasses I’ve ever seen. 😎

  Flight 2012

  ★★★½ Watched 15 Feb 2025

  3.75/5

Anchored by David Chase discussing everything from therapy to his creative process, it focuses heavily on the development of the show, then in “part 2” it moves more quickly through the later seasons. I do think this could have worked well as an even…

  Casino Royale 2006

  ★★★★½ Watched 05 Jan 2025

  EXCELLENT film. Absolutely loved it. I had never seen this one before (what rock was I living under when this came out???!!) and every ounce of hype and positive comment I have read is well deserved. The airport and tarmac fight is a 10/10, Eva Green and Jeffrey Wright are PERFECTION... I love Daniel Craig as Bond and really enjoy the darker take on Bond, a bit Timothy Dalton-esque in nature but Craig also takes Bond to his own unique level. Easily a top 3 Bond film for me.
