Nothing beat the Casino Royale just yet in my opinion. I hope this is 1 could be on par.

this movie suffers severe pacing issue. after greeted by what i thought to be 1 of the best bond's action sequence in the opening sequence (dat tracking shot tho..), the movie never get to reach the same level again.

the action scenes r pretty well shot, but they r very far n few in between.

the main villain is also pretty weak. very disappointing considering how vital this character is to the whole daniel craig's bond story arch.

overall a 3/5 from me. disappointing considering how good skyfall was (but casino royale is still the best biggrin.gif )

I think people who preferred Skyfall, the The Dark Knight-esque, gritty, realistic take on Bond are surely gonna dislike Spectre.

I think the producers heard about the gripes a lot of old time fans of the series had with Skyfall and decided to do a fan service for these spectrum of fans and gave us Spectre. So I think it's a win-win situation, gritty realistic fans got Skyfall, Bond fans who wants gadgets and all other old school Bond tropes got Spectre.

People who pointed out the plot holes or illogical actions by characters on Spectre, just go to IMDB etc. I'm sure there's a list for Skyfall as well.

Casino Royale (2006) is the only movie that I think managed to balance out old school Bond tropes and gritty/realistic stuff, so it was loved by both types of fan including me.

I'd definitely recommend Spectre to any Bond fans, but not to Skyfall fans. 

Anyway I watched it on IMAX, why did they censored..
