If you haven't seen this film yet, go. It's great! Ideally go having watched the first two, in the right order shortly beforehand. I watched the second one a week before, shortly followed by the second half of the first one and was still a bit confused at certain points. This is also advisable because when you do recognise/ make a connection with an earlier film it makes you feel nicely smug even though you are meant to and everyone else does.
How could I not love these films? They have the exotic locations of a Bond film, but with a much more intricate plot line and generally better action sequences. Though it has to be said they lack the cheese element, fabulous villains and the henchmen in boiler suits and hard hats that make Bond films so reassuringly familiar.
Having mentioned loving the exotic locations, part of the reason that this is my favourite film of the three is that there are so many FAMILIAR places in it. In the London sequence who wasn't saying/ thinking 'I'VE been in that offy in Waterloo Station!' ? Everyone loves seeing places they know in films, and since this one is largely set in New York (much to Keith's annoyance as I jumped up and down in my seat a little as I saw "my bridge" etc) and London I really REALLY loved it.
