In celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Bond film series, The Sound of 007 is a new documentary available on Amazon Prime video that looks back at the incredible, iconic music of the series. The documentary, directed by Mat Whitecross, is a delightfully entertaining salute to

So… Back to the Future: The Musical is coming to Broadway in June 2023…? Great Scott! It seems like a ludicrous notion, but I must admit this trailer is sort of endearing. The actor playing Marty sounds exactly like Michael J. Fox when we hear him say “a time mac
Josh Reviews Nobody Does it Better: The Complete, Uncensored, Unauthorized Oral History of James Bond
I am a huge fan of the oral histories by Mark A. Altman and Edward Gross. My favorite is their phenomenal, voluminous two-part look back at the entire history of the Star Trek franchise: The Fifty-Year Mission. I’ve also devoured and enjoyed their oral history of Battlestar
Josh Reviews No Time to Die
No Time To Die is the fifth and final film starring Daniel Craig as James Bond. The film is excellent, with some terrific action set-pieces and also some lovely moments of emotional depth (something the series rarely saw before Mr. Craig took on the role). While the film is not ev

Josh Reviews Spectre
Spectre, Daniel Craig’s fourth outing as Ian Flemming’s James Bond, is not a completely terrible film but it’s a huge missed opportunity for the franchise and is probably the worst of Craig’s four Bond films. (That’s right, I think Spectre is weaker tha

This trailer for SPECTRE is pretty great: I am tremendously excited for the reintroduction of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. and Blofeld to the Bond films — for the first time in four decades!! — and I really hope they don’t blow it. This new trailer looks large-scale, and I am th
