The James Bond movie series has been around for more than 50 years, so as the generations of superspy fans shift, their favorite Bond sticks with them. I’ll forever be a Pierce Brosnan-Bond guy. Not because I want to, but because that’s how I’ll forever be programmed. It’s all very Freudian. I can objectively say that Sean Connery and Daniel Craig are better Bonds than Pierce, but GoldenEye has a special place in my heart because I also love four-player splitscreen games.

But when it comes to reviewing the Bond movies, it’s a bit trickier. The worst Bond movies are sometimes fun to watch, and there’s a couple Sean Connery and Craig outings worth skipping. Let’s face reality — it’s almost impossible to create a system with which to rate the Bond films. There’s too many of them and emotions can run too high.

Thankfully, Archer and Entertainment Weekly teamed up to down a couple scotches and review every Bond movie. The video is 5 minutes long and covers almost all the films, but a few key ones are left out.

GoldenEye:

“Bond must stop a presumed dead MI6 agent from stealing money from the Bank of England via wire transfers before erasing their bank records. So non-confrontational. So British.”
LIKE: “Bond steals a tank and plows through St. Petersburg. Then again, who hasn’t?”
DISLIKE: “Good news for you synthesizer music lovers out there: it’s in pretty much every scene.”

Casino Royale:

“Bond must defeat a weapons dealer by playing the world’s longest game of poker.”
LIKE: “I drank six Tom Collins and took an hour long nap. And I really needed that.”
DISLIKE: “As a secret agent, you learn to get in and out quickly, and that’s something this director clearly did not do while directing these scenes. Sorry. Gin makes me grouchy.”
