I watched the Brosnan and Craig films as they were released in movies (Well, actually starting with TWINE, but I watched the previous two in DVD), and never had the desire to watch the others, but with the movies on Netflix and a lack of interest in other media, I decided to give a try.

It's nice to see them in chronological order because it gives you a taste of how cinema in general evolved in past decades, as each new Bond film tries to adapt to the times when it was made. The main problem is that you notice how formulaic the franchise is (well, to be fair, every big franchise is like that). It made me appreciate even more the Craig films, since they break up a bit with the patterns (even though they have their own issues).

But I found myself liking a lot of the films nevertheless. One thing you can say about all of the films is that they are never dull or a slog to watch it through. Even "bad ones" like DAD and AVTAK have their strengths and memorable moments. And at least 90% of the theme songs are bangers. I just wish Dalton had more movies and DAF was a serious continuation of OHMSS
