    ★★★

    This is not a proper review. This is just a comment on my re-watch of this somewhat controversial film.

I thought this was a very good, entertaining, Bond film. I think it definitely one of the best and thoroughly enjoyed it.

    You had to know they would try to come up with something special for the 5oth Anniversary of Bond. The British director chosen for this special edition was…
