From Russia with Love
Feels considerably more well-paced than Dr. No, but I'm most indifferent towards it in the same way. Some more interesting elements at play here, and the increased budget definitely shows nicely. 596
I love trains in old movies and those sequences here were a lot of fun. I think I just wanted some screen-time out of the more interesting villains like Number One and Number Five, rather than Number Three and <PERSON>, who feel like henchmen essentially. Needless to say, I was never really coming into these first two Bonds expecting much, and I'm excited for <PERSON> and all the more crazy gadgets and villains to come. 577
