One of the great satisfactions of Spectre is that, in addition to all the stirring action, and all the timely references to a secret organization out to steal everyone’s personal information, we get to believe in Bond as a person.

A Bond movie is all about delivering on expectations: to enjoy it you have to be pleased rather than frustrated by its predictability. In that regard, Spectre, Daniel Craig’s fourth outing as Bond and the second directed by Sam Mendes, can be deemed a solid success: not as darkly stylish as "Skyfall" but not as stupidly grim as "Quantum of Solace" either.

I enjoyed this movie a lot. Indeed this is the best Bond I saw in my marathon with all 007 movies. Visually the pictures are perfect, especially in the first half of the movie. Almost every character here is interesting, especially Q improved a lot since the last movie. Ralph Fiennes as M has more scenes and he is much better than the ice cold and ugly Judi Dench. Christoph Waltz as Blofeld is a perfect cast, I still remember him as Col. Hans Lada in Inglourious Basterds. Daniel Craig is perfect as usual. Only the character Madeleine Swann is annoying in the beginning, but gets better. The story is a good one, I like the political statement here much better than in Skyfall.
The action scenes are perfect, because they are much more realistic than in many other Bond movies. Also the hand fights are great, compare them with the Bond movies from the 60s and 70s...
The biggest surprise is the humour. I never laughed in the all the Bond movies, sometimes the humour was even bad. But here, every joke is on point.

Spectre (2015) is a modern, stylish, entertaining 007 film.
Craig's 3rd best entry. Should be considered as a borderline entry to franchise top 10 list.
Co-starring Christoph Waltz as a new take on the old reliable villain Blofeld, grossed a whopping $879.6M worldwide - the second-biggest take for the franchise.

It remains a decently robust and entertaining midlevel Bond movie — just one that's haunted by the specter of its predecessor.

An unbalanced but never less than entertaining film, enthralling and deflating in roughly equal measure, and studded with moments of true, old-school glory.

Watching Spectre unfold, lumbering and slumbering, on the heels of a franchise high is a shock, so much talent coasting this time.

Perhaps some of the goofiness was intentional — you can’t always tell from this production’s wavering tone — but Spectre is full of not-good things, and some oppressively bad things that may come to feel like drill bits twirling in your skull.

This may be the weakest of the Bond movies starring Daniel Craig because it has so many unbelievable elements that are a throwback to the tongue-and-cheek entries much earlier in the franchise. Still okay as a popcorn flic.

Out of 25 Bond movies, I'd place Spectre at 18/25. I watched it not 4 days ago. I can't remember a thing about it.
The photography was very yellow for some reason. The story almost started being ok at some point, and then it turned to crap the very instant I thought the movie started showing competence. I do remember that I thought at some point "somehow it's started being just as silly as Roger Moore era Bond now".
The action took too long and a lot of characterisation wasn't properly done. Honestly, even after rewatching bits of it, I can't even appreciate, or remember appreciating, anything about Spectre. The only positive and reason it's so high in my list is that Sam Mendes is a good director, Craig and Seydoux play well, actually every actor does his job well. But it's so uninteresting. No lines, no scenes, no plot points, nothing reall marks. It's competent work spent on a completely forgettable and uninteresting movie.
