There’s an unhelpful hangover from the ‘personal story’ angle in a contrived backstory that links Bond’s unhappy childhood with the creation of Spectre - as if subverting worldwide democracy and massive terrorist attacks weren’t evil enough to annoy the hero. This means Spectre has to play by the established rules rather than break or radically overhaul them. Skyfall was a knowing victory lap for the series, but also told a different type of story and spent its last half taking Bond home - to his grim childhood house but also, with Ralph Fiennes as a new M and Naomie Harris sitting at Miss Moneypenny’s desk, to the sit-com-like status quo circa Dr. Roger Moore would have arched an eyebrow, but Craig is funny because he doesn’t wink at the audience - but can also turn off the charm when it’s time to throw someone through a window. When a beautiful woman mentions that the astonishing scenery (and art direction) of her mountaintop clinic can be a distraction, Craig’s smooth throwaway as he focuses intently on her (“Really? I hadn’t noticed”) is typical of the kind of laugh only he can get. Craig doesn’t get Connery-Moore quips, but allows much more wry humour to sneak into his hardman-in-a-suit hero.
