Spanning six decades with 25 official entries, Eon’s James Bond series is the gold standard of film franchises. Run by the Broccoli family of producers and a tightly-knit, tightly-lipped machine, the spy adventure films have maintained a remarkable, perhaps unrivaled level of quality control for over half a century.

One of the most boring opinions you’re able to have in the year of our lord 2020 is thatKeanu Reevesis simply a “bad actor.” It’s an oversimplification of a complex subject, like saying Newton’s law of gravitation is bullshit because it doesn’t rhyme.
