Bond flim 'Spectre' was weak story, says Pierce Brosnan

Darpan News Desk IANS, 18 Nov, 2015 01:20 PM
    Actor and former 007 Pierce Brosnan says he is disappointed with the latest Bond film “Spectre.”
     
    In an interview with HitFix, Brosnan shared his less-than-glowing review of the 24th Bond film.
     
    “I was looking forward to it enormously. I thought it was too long. The story was kind of weak - it could have been condensed. It kind of went on too long. It really did,” variety.com quoted Brosnan as saying.
     
    The actor, who played the super-spy in four films from 1995 to 2002, went on to say that “Spectre” didn’t quite feel like a Bond film. He did, however, have some kind words about the current Bond, Daniel Craig.
     
    “(‘Spectre’) is neither fish nor fowl. It’s neither Bond nor Bourne. Am I in a Bond movie? Not in a Bond movie? But Daniel, in the fourth go-round, has ownership of it. He had a nice looseness to him,” he said.
     
    “He’s a mighty warrior, and I think he found a great sense of himself in this one with the one-liners and a nice playfulness there. Just get a tighter story, and he’ll have another classic,” he added.
     
    “Spectre” worldwide gross is nearing $550 million.
