Plot
Bond is called back to defend M and MI6 from a former agent who wants revenge.
Sinekatalog’s take
Sam Mendes's Bond film strips the series down to M, Bond and a vengeful ex-agent. Roger Deakins's photography is exceptional, and Javier Bardem's villain is memorable, in an entry about age and legacy.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
