The Living Daylights (1987) – The Bond franchise on occasion gets caught up on trying to capitalize on what’s new. On occasion this works very well (the parkour chase in Casino Royale). Other times it just gets silly (pretty much all of Die Another Day). The Living Daylights begins with a training exercise with double-0 … Continue reading →

Goldfinger (1964) – The idea of masculinity is one that is constantly being redefined as culture changes through the ages. But men of the world, you have been outdone, outmatched, and outclassed.
