The Ellen DeGeneres show flew Britton Walker to Mexico City on Monday for the premiere of “Spectre”, where he met current Bond actor Daniel Craig and learned what it takes to be a secret agent. But practice doesn’t seem to make flawless as “Spectre” seemed to simply fall short. The action scenes are fast and furious and incredibly well shot. “James Bond.” is one of the most-iconic lines in film history (even though announcing himself isn’t such a good move for a spy).

With Spectre set to premiere in cinemas nationwide, here are 7 reasons why you should see Spectre. The song’s good, for sure, the music video is just cheesy in my opinion, and I don’t quite understand the reasoning behind opening the movie with that.
What do we see in “Thunderball” regarding MI-6 that we never see in any other Bond film? There are so many elements that could have made the film great. The suave Bond and a sexy female companion make their way upstairs to a bedroom where they don’t make love. But this one felt like it was lacking in a big way. I’ve never seen anything like it. He must have added, I dont know, 10 inches to his thighs and the whole chest. They were too pretty I didn’t believe in them… The focus of this particular video is the Bond gadgets that famously help James in each and every Bond movie that has ever been released up until Spectre.
“Spectre” is still an above-average entry into the series, although of Craig’s Bond movies, I would still rank it behind “Skyfall” and “Casino Royale”, but ahead of the clunky “Quantum of Solace”, which got rushed into production thanks to the writers’ strike. The movie did not flow exceptionally well, and Waltz’s talent is completely wasted by a lack of screen time. In Spectre, which takes place soon after the events of Skyfall, he has some renewed goal, going rogue by following the posthumous orders of his beloved M. In all, he’s cockier, cracks a few more jokes, and seems a little more eager to get those Bond girls into bed.
