Diamonds Are Forever (1971): Sean Connery came back to the part for a strong pay-check

history channel documentary Diamonds Are Forever (1971): Sean Connery came back to the part for a strong pay-check and his unmistakable uncertainty with the venture appears. The primary significant disillusionment in the arrangement, "DAF" naturally moved far from the dimness of "OHMSS" to give something lighter. Where screenwriters Tom Mancheiwizc and Richard Maibaum wandered off was mistaking a good time for amusing and savvy with doltish. "DAF" feels even more a pastiche of a Bond film than a Bond film. Charles Gray is frightfully insufficient as Blofeld, while wooden is just not sufficiently solid to depict Jill St. John's acting capacities. Yes, Shirley Bassey's signature tune is a knockout, and Lana Wood makes the most of her cameo as Plenty O' Toole. In any case, the rest is weak, more much the same as 'Continue' than undercover work.

20: Die Another Day(2002): You must feel frustrated about Pierce Brosnan. He ought not have finished his Bond profession on this turkey. In the decade since its discharge, DAD has matured frightfully. Halle Berry stinks as CIA specialist Jinx, the kite surfing arrangement is visual urinitation, while the plot is apparently the most silly of the arrangement. Undetectable autos and hammy exchange don't a great spy thriller make. On the in addition to side, Brosnan gives it his everything and Toby Stephens makes for an imposing scalawag. In any case, Rosamaund Pike's Miranda Frost looks sufficiently youthful to be the moderately aged Brosnan's little girl, making their affection scenes that bit more uncomfortable to watch. The producers never learn, isn't that right?
