A cryptic message from Bond's past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organization. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE.
IMDb sits down with Ellen DeGeneres and her Finding Dory fishmates to find out what fans are most likely to remember about the sequel 13 years from now, even if Dory herself won't remember a thing.
Bond's loyalty to M is tested when her past comes back to haunt her. Whilst MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.
Armed with a licence to kill, Secret Agent James Bond sets out on his first mission as 007 and must defeat a weapons dealer in a high stakes game of poker at Casino Royale, but things are not what they seem.
James Bond descends into mystery as he tries to stop a mysterious organization from eliminating a country's most valuable resource. All the while, he still tries to seek revenge over the death of his love.

Armed with a super-suit with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, cat burglar Scott Lang must embrace his inner hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.
A cryptic message from the past sends James Bond on a rogue mission to Mexico City and eventually Rome, where he meets Lucia, the beautiful and forbidden widow of an infamous criminal. Bond infiltrates a secret meeting and uncovers the existence of the sinister organisation known as SPECTRE. Meanwhile back in London, Max Denbigh, the new head of the Centre of National Security, questions Bond's actions and challenges the relevance of MI6 led by M. Bond covertly enlists Moneypenny and Q to help him seek out Madeleine Swann, the daughter of his old nemesis Mr White, who may hold the clue to untangling the web of SPECTRE. As the daughter of the assassin, she understands Bond in a way most others cannot. As Bond ventures towards the heart of SPECTRE, he learns a chilling connection between himself and the enemy he seeks.
Fourth collaboration of director Sam Mendes and production designer Dennis Gassner. Spectre (2015) is Gassner's third Bond film after Skyfall (2012) and Quantum of Solace (2008). Mendes says: "Working with Dennis is like a bit of magic; he's got such a soul. You get more out of a drawing that Dennis would have done on the back of a napkin than out of 70 pages of technical drawings. And then his sense of color and light, architecture and style and his taste, all these things are impeccable". What the filmmakers dreamed up for Spectre (2015), Gassner says, was guided by what they created in Skyfall (2012). "That was a beginning and then Spectre (2015) is the continuation of that", he says of the production design. "In my initial discussions with Sam I said, 'Where do you want to go with this film? What's your direction?' and he said, 'Can you find me something hot and then something cold?'". See more »

In several scenes, Bond is seen approaching what he believes to be a dangerous location, taking out his pistol and manually loading the chamber by sliding it back. This suggests that Bond carries his pistol without the chamber loaded. As noted above by another viewer, there would be no need to do this, since the PPK is a double action pistol, i.e. it can be carried safely with a round in the chamber. In addition, it is highly unlikely that a trained assassin would carry his pistol in that manner, since getting the pistol ready for combat would involve making a very large noise (as we see in the movie), and it would delay and complicate the response to any sudden attack, especially since the action requires two free hands.

This is the worst Bond movie ever, filled with emotionless characters that I couldn't care less about. The pace of this film after a predictably exciting start is slow and boring. Unlike his fellow actors, Ben Whishaw as Q manages to portray the only believable human in this whole fake production. Why couldn't JB have been given a touch of Q's wit, humour or vulnerability? No wonder Daniel Craig wants out of this franchise - it's beneath his talent. Such a cacophony of totally forgettable dialogue, people and silly stunts is hard to imagine in a single movie and yet here it is. During one of the 'action' fights when James was being hammered by the evil assassin I noticed the person next to me had fallen asleep and was snoring. That person was an exceedingly eloquent critic.
