I will give you this Goji, at least Die Another Day is memorably bad, albeit not even in an amusing trainwreck way for me. Quantum by comparison was dry and dull.

I can't think what might be considered bad about DAD, at all! I just remember it being silly fun with some great over the top stuff. I thought QOS was fine too, but didn't watch it properly as I was at my brothers' with my nephews and couldn't really concentrate. I'd need to see it again. "dry and dull" sums up Goldeneye for me, but people seem to love that for some reason! I don't get it! |

HEATED VENGENCE. Richard Hatch plays a vietnam veteran returning to thailand to seek out the woman he left behind. There he encounters the psychotic Bingo (ron max) the soldier he sent for court martial for rape. Bingo and his associates (including one great performance from michael J pollard) have set up shop in their old base across the border in laos manufacturing heroin. Bingo kidnapps hatches character and takes him back to the old base for some drawn out vengence, except hatch escapes and tries to make his way back to thailand. Heated vengence is a great little action flick with plenty of violence and some great performances. Its perfect CODE RED material, an obscure almost classic piece of exploitation that refuses to outstay its welcome in its tight 90 minute plot. Great entertainment and worth a look. |

Forgive me, but have there been any Bond films after 'The Spy Who Loved Me'? Oh - there was 'For Your Eyes Only'...but Sheena Eaton was my pin-up at the time!

I really dislike Die Another Day. The persormances are OK, scene chewing aside. But over all it felt very poorly made. The CGI was ATROCIOUS, the theme song is abysmal, John Cleese should never have been cast as Q, Mrs. Berry is one of the worst cast Bond girls ever (but I would still tap that!), the villeins have no clear goel and there means shift constantly. It's just a mess of a film. I actualy REALLY enjoyed QoS, as with all the Craig films. Moonraker is cheese, yet thats not bad. DAD is, IMHO, the worst Bond film of them all.

Continuing my efforts to reduce the "Too" watch pile I finally (its been sitting on the shelf since end of August) got around to watching the marvellous We are what we are (UK Blu) which follows a group of teenage children living in a south American slum who must take there fathers place as the "bread winner" when he dies. The twist - they are a family of cannibals.
