Movie Review –ย Gunpowder Milkshake
โ
In case you havenโt noticed, things have been a bit untoward for the last couple of years. As part of my rehab Iโve been making the effort to get back into the cinema at least once a week. The upshot of this, combined with various family commitments, means that I tend to go and see…

Movie Review – No Time to Die
Iโve already gone on record here at RunPee about how I have enjoyed Daniel Craigโs tenure as Bond, how Iโve liked the story arc throughout the films, and how much Iโve been looking forward to seeing No Time To Die. I may as well tell you at the start about my disappointmentโฆ there wasnโt any!…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch –ย Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
Of all the things thatย Tomorrow Never Diesย has going for it something that, perhaps, doesnโt spring immediately to mind is the sheer weight of originality. This is the first film in the franchise to have no relationship with anything written by Ian Fleming outside of the character names. Licence To Killย was a virtual pick and mix…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch –ย Skyfall (2012)
Iโm doing this review last of all despite it being my first pickโฆย Skyfallย is definitely my favourite Bond film, just edging outย Casino Royale. Iโll admit that in this regard Iโm at odds with the voters of IMDb.comโฆ they have Casino Royale at 8.0/10 with Skyfall and Goldfinger tying for second on 7.7/10. I havenโt hidden my…

Movie Review – Copshop
โ
I can’t say I had any valid expectations going into the movie because all I knew of it was what I saw on the poster. I knew Gerald Butler was in it. He’s a mixed bag. I really like the actor and most of the movies he’s in, but he’s also been in a few…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – GoldenEye (1995)
GoldenEye is an important Bond film. ย It ended the six-year hiatus since License to Kill,ย during which Timothy Dalton quit and Alfred R. Broccoli stepped down as producer. ย It introduced Pierce Brosnan in his first outing as James Bond. ย And it was the basis for an extremely popular video game, one which I have fond memories…

Movie Review – The Card Counter
โ
When I saw that Martin Scorsese was the executive producer, I thought this movie would be on par with the likes of Taxi Driver or Goodfellas. Wow, I was so totally wrong. Simply put, this movie sucked. It’s a dark character study, which is usually great as long as the writing is well done. Nope,…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – License to Kill (1989)
The 1980s were a weird time. ย Children’s cartoons became both commercial and dark. ย A group of singing raisins released an album. ย MTV actually showed music videos. ย Jazzercise was a thing. ย And they made a Bond film that sucked all the joy out of the franchise. What I dislike about License to Kill Let me start…
