If you had seen it, this is James Bond 24th film franchise and highly successful sequels popular ever made. What does Spectre means? It’s an acronym for Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion.
This movie amazes me and I hardly move for 2 hour and 28 minutes. I did missed a few minutes of the movie. I couldn’t hold it. Might as well get it on DVD to see what I missed. Can they rewind the movie back for ten minutes? It was during an action sequence.
Filmed in downtown Mexico City during the riotous Day of the Dead festivities, the stupendous pre-credits sequence opens with an extended tracking shot that would make Orson Welles jealous. After a spectacular demolition and helicopter fight leaves a trail of carnage, James Bond (Daniel Craig) is grounded by his jittery bosses. But he defies their orders as he races to Rome, the Austrian Alps and the Moroccan desert in search of Franz Oberhauser (Christoph Waltz), the shadowy mastermind behind an all-powerful criminal cartel called Spectre, (Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion) reviving an iconic piece of 007 folklore dating back to the Sean Connery era.
Meanwhile, back in London, M (Ralph Fiennes), Moneypenny (Naomie Harris) and Q (Ben Whishaw) are fighting for survival against an ambitious government mandarin called C (Andrew Scott).
Good nicknames for agent with alphabet as their initials. I am going to give initials to my friends for I don’t have to say their full names all the time.
Plans to shut down the 00 agent program and replace it with his own sinister high-tech surveillance network. If all this sounds a little familiar, it is pretty much the same plot as the latest “Mission: Impossible” movie “Rogue Nation,” right down to using Morocco and Austria as exotic locations. But at least “Spectre” boasts a little more visual finesse, courtesy of “Interstellar” cinematographer Hoyte Van Hoytema. I love the way how they shot it, great visual and camera work.
