Meanwhile back in London, Max Denbigh, the new head of the Centre of National Security, questions Bond's actions and challenges the relevance of MI6 led by M. Bond covertly enlists Moneypenny and Q to help him seek out Madeleine Swann, the daughter of his old nemesis Mr White, who may hold the clue to untangling the web of SPECTRE. As the daughter of the assassin, she understands Bond in a way most others cannot.

Spectre (2015) Reviews

Superb Bond movie
6 November 2015

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Spectre" (2015) is highly entertaining Bond movie. It a superb follow up to the "Skyfall" and it is a great entry into rebooted Bond franchise. Finally we do get to see the famous evil organization behind last 3 pictures, and it does not disappoint. Unfortunately there is one weak side. I thought that Christoph Waltz's character was not fully realized as a ultimate James Bond enemy. He is a great actor, but he wasn't fully and superbly used in here and this is the weakest and the only downside of "Spectre" in my opinion.

Everything else here is superbly solid and highly entertaining. Directing by great S.Mendes was great, very solid and highly controlled. Pacing of this picture was great, at running time 2 h 15 min it never drags and is very involving. Opening was great, with seemingly one unbroken shoot in Mexico - superbly cool costumes as well. Action set pieces are the ones you could expect in this movie, they are great and looks as realistic as possible in this kind of movie.

Overall, i enjoyed "Spectre" more than i thought i will be. After magnificent "Skyfall" i didn't believe that it would be possible to top it in the near future, and "Spectre" doesn't top "Skyfall". Nevertheless this is a great Bond movie that everyone can enjoy it.
