When I read the look back I realised I had never seen it.
Since it was such a glowing review I was really looking forward to it.
Having just watched it a couple of things bothered me about it.
Or am I reading too much into it?
I would like to know your thoughts either way.
kindly dont take this letter as criticism as I [nice things redacted].
As such, I dont think youre thinking too much about it.
Its your true and honest reaction, for a start.
Its tricky when covering the Bond films, of course.
So to directly answer your question: I agree.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

Its hard to pick one that stuck out particularly, mainly because I hated them all.
I do remember being in a really bad mood having to turn overQuiz Showmid-film.
But then its one of my favourite films, and one that relies on building up over time.
As most films do.
The way I see it, we did away with intervals in cinemas for a reason.
Glad I got that out of my system.
Can you help me track down this film?
I found a stack of old videos (ask your parents!)
and was looking through them when I found the last five minutes of a film I half remember watching.
Unfortunately, it cuts out before the credits roll, so cant get any actors names to help.
You provide lots of clues, none of which helped us at all.
Theyll dig me out of a hole.
Er, wont it?
All the best,
Simon Stothard
