I've not seen it yet. I'm hoping to soon. I think the direction they took 007 with Craig was the change it needed. I really enjoy his version, it goes back to the Connery Bond, more brutal. It is less campy than Moore, etc made it. I'll watch and hope for a correction with the next Bond that keeps it moving in the right direction.

Charlize Theron should reprise her Atomic Blonde role and become the next 007.

I thought it started out great, kind of petered out in the end.

You should definitely see it. It was entertaining. I've enjoyed Craig as 007 for sure. It's simply time to move on.

I’d watch that. But I’m wondering if the next Bond will be even more diverse than just a white woman. And younger, in both cases to get younger people interested in the franchise. We’ll see, I guess.

I liked Atomic Blonde, but I'll have to disagree that Bond should be a woman. Sorry, Bond is a character that is a man. If you make Bond a woman then it's not Bond, but another character which would be ok but leave Bond a womanizing brutish man.

"Netflix announced their next action thriller of Charlize Theron. The Atomic Blonde Season Two will be a sequel of Atomic Blonde. Netflix also announced that Charlize would continue as the main protagonist, so the girl will again rule the most notable action film." Aug 16, 2021

Yeah, same here. I always tried to like the Bond movies. I do like some of them. But didn't love them like I know some others do. I like Daniel Craig and I'm looking forward to seeing his last one, though I've heard it's not that great. Will still see it.

[Murf993]

I do love Guy Ritchie films, this could be good.

Watching The Day the Earth Stood Still, Keanu Reeves is great in this.

Yes, I think this looks good. And you can't go wrong with Jason Statham.

Plus it's got Dean Martin singing Sway. What's not to like?

I loved Charlize in Atomic Blonde and then Old Guard but she doesn’t need Bond, she’s bigger than them. I did like Daniel in his Bond films, No Time To Die started off with a bang (literally) but the ending was a bit of a whimper.

Last night, I watched Guy Pearce in Zone 415 and was pleasantly surprised. It reminded me of Bladerunner and the ending was an interesting twist.

I agree with the sentiment about Atomic Blonde. That was a really good action flick. I also agree that Bond should remain a man. If they want a 00 female character, name her something else entirely.

Exactly a spin off or overlap could work. But if they PC Bond the franchise is done in MHO.

I misread your message that it was "Films Plus" that you were using. Cinema HD is still BS links. I'll have to download Films Plus to the Firestick and try again.

My Wife and I watched The Best of Enemies last night. It’s a civil rights drama starring Taraji P. Henson and Sam Rockwell which is based on a true story.

Whilst it was somewhat slow it was still a very good movie and worth a watch.

It depends on which version of CINEMA you're using. My version at home no longer works, but the version on the Firestick at my gf's place works perfectly. At her place I use CINEMA; at home I've been using FP for about a month.
