Goldfinger “Shaken, not stirred” James Bond If “Dr. No” introduced us to James Bond’s adventures, and “From Russia with Love” made it clear to us that J.B. is a serious player and that the film industry should pay close attention to this (then) new golden goose, “Goldfinger” set some standards and guidelines that future…
Goodbye Somehow the novel “Goodbye” has quite an appropriate title for the first (reviewed) novel for 2021… a nice, subtle and cultured farewell sentence for 2020 (though we surely said goodbye to it much worse in our thoughts :D). And that’s where my comments about 2020 will remain… The novel “Goodbye” by Živojin Petrović was…
From Russia with Love Ahhhhhh, “From Russia with Love”… now things are getting more interesting. This is one of my favorite films, not just when it comes to J.B.’s adventures, but generally. As for the ranking of James Bond films, this film is in my “top 5,” and maybe even in “top 3″… and it’s…
Atomic Habits – Why Small Changes Make a Big Difference On one occasion (this year) I subjected myself to a kind of “test.” And that was not eating refined sugar, i.e., sweets, for a month. My motive was to prove to some people (i.e., clients) that it’s absolutely doable… and it was… and it wasn’t…
Dr.No Writing about James Bond outside the context of films would be a pretty thankless job (or rather would require a special text). So I wouldn’t want to waste much space here. I don’t believe anyone expected that the film “Dr. No,” which even for that era (the sixties) was made quite cheaply, would spawn…
Taken 3 “Taken 3” is a victim of the previous part, from which the audience expected a lot (since the first part delighted the audience). If the second part hadn’t happened (which was quite disappointing after the standard the first part set), the third part of Bryan Mills’ adventures would certainly have fared much better…
12 Rules for Life – Jordan Peterson without a filter In my work with people, I occasionally encounter those who often aren’t convinced by what I can tell/point out/explain/ask them. You can see they simply think “it’s not that I don’t believe you, but you’re not (yet) some authority in the field of working with…
Taken 2 Bryan Mills’ life is trying to return to normal after everything that happened in the first film “Taken”… which will certainly require effort. Bryan tries to normalize relationships with his daughter Kim (who’s struggling to pass her driving test, and also has difficulty telling her father she now has a boyfriend) and his…
The Wolf of Wall Street (movie) Now this is a different story… I’m guessing you remember my review of the book The Wolf of Wall Street. A perfectly solid book, quite educational in many ways. Now the question is: can the film be better than the book? My answer is — yes. In this case,…
