  Analyse This retrograde script. Old and busted ideas dressed up in fine leather and CGI.

• The Spy Who Loved Me 1977

  Equal parts Benny Hill, eye watering melodrama and regular Bond villain megalomania.

• The Man with the Golden Gun 1974

  The one where Bond faces Scaramanga, the guy with three nipples and a dwarf servant.

• Live and Let Die 1973

  The very first Roger Moore-led Bond has magic people, voodoo people.

• Rambo III 1988

  The one where the US Army fawns over the Taliban Mujahideen. That did not age well…

• Rambo: First Blood Part II 1985
