From Russia with Love (1963): 7/10

It was pretty good, though the problematic pacing, bland villain and terrible love interest certainly brought things down. A lot of the movie also felt like filler.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984): 8/10

Hilariously racist, and Willie Scott was very annoying, but this film is just brilliant, with amazing practical effects, action scenes, and characters. Short Round was also a brilliant side-kick.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014): 8/10

This film, along with Spider-Man 2, are the only Marvel films I consider to be great. That said, the plot is a little muddy, and the villain (Alexander Pierce) didn’t have very good motivations.

Thunderball (1965): 5/10

The villain, the story, the love interest, the underwater shots, and the action scenes were all just rather boring. Although, Connery gave a top performance, and the film has first rate production design and music.

Quantum of Solace (2008): 5/10

It was certainly watchable, but after Casino Royale, “certainly watchable” isn’t good enough.
