The new movie.
Aug. 30th, 2015 08:03 pmI completely loved the movie. I can live with the funky back stories. I love the Gabby character, Hugh grant was fun as Mr waverly. I actually enjoyed this Illya. He actually was very much the character I loved. Napoleon as art thief was quite good. Reminded me of the back story to the Robert Wagner show--It takes a Thief.
Which reminds me-- there was a lot of nods to old shows and THE old show, itself: the split screens of Mission Impossible, and the banter between the two characters-- especially at the fashion house, was great.
Napoleon was much more the napoleon of the first season, possibly more of the character that Fleming intended.
Please note that I also love the new Star Trek movies as well.

And from what I understand there were still a couple of international markets where it hasn't opened yet.
So here's to hoping!
