An audience member said, "This year is the 50th anniversary of James Bond films, though it premiered later in China than in North America, we are still very excited".
The film centers on Bond investigating an attack on the British Military Intelligence, directed by Sam Mendes. Die hard fans are glad to thrill by his telling of the story.
Another audience member said, "The film is characteristically British, I enjoy the gentlemanlike feeling. And the weapons were also very cool."
But gentlemaness comes at a cost. Daniel Craig revealed to fans that he had 30 exact backups for each of the six suits he wore because of the wear and tear of the fighting scenes.
But the production crew would agree that it is a small price to pay to deliver big-time action.
