I think the Craig films are a mixed bag. They are too brutal. I rank them
1) Spectre
2) Quantum of Solace
3) Casino Royale
4) Skyfall
The problem with Casino Royale is that it's a bit boring. Skyfall is just hideous --- one of the worst Bond movies because of the villain. The overacting and overwriting are too much.
Quantum of Solace, despite some weaknesses in the action sequences, is very interesting.
I really like Spectre for the fantastic scenery. The Mexico City chase and helicopter scene is not very good, while the car chase abd train fight are well done.
Like most Bond films, the plot doesn't stand up to scrutiny, but it's serviceable.
For me, weak casting is a problem though. Andrew Scott is just terrible. He has no presence at all. Lea Seydoux isn't rather wooden, but she looks good.
