007: Estrada para o Milhão

A good reality TV show, but you really need to know your Bond to find the links with the movies. For example, Drax is mentioned in one episode, and the iconic cable cars are shown from Moonraker. Also referenced is Live and Let Die, Octopussy, Dr No, and On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

The contestants are interesting and in no way appear shallow or spolit. They're ordinary people trying to make money on a very difficult game show.

Brain Cox does a great job at playing the 'villian,' and he keeps the show going. However, the challenges often appear harsh for some, and a little easier for others.

I enjoyed this show, but you've got to know your Bond. The contestants don't really know there Bond so as viewers you're almost left to infer the links.

There is an abundance of tv shows taking uk contestants around the world and/or the world for their chance at winning a cash prize.

This one is different, you can tell it has a big budget and the cinematography is really next level because of this. It's definitely got class.

As you will see by some reviews, people quit after 10 minutes, making their review reflecting nothing but the genre of the show. It's fun, the contestants all brought something different. You really do hope they get past each challenge.

It's really well edited, apart from a 2 second shot from a helicopter, there is no evidence of a film crew being there, you start to feel like you are the third person there.

Of course there is a bit of cheese, any fan of James Bond can look back and see a bit of cheese here and there.

Brian Cox was of course brilliant also.

Yes someone moaned about the bone brothers. They are not asking you to be friend with them, they were a class act. Really authentic characters, and deserved to get as far as they did, if not even further.

As a huge James Bond fan, I loved the little subtleties in the show (going to Jamaica and staying at Goldeneye, for instance), as well as a lot of good trivia questions. The global travel is shot amazingly well. Brian Cox does a great job as the host/puppet master.

The contestants all have their own human interest angles. There are the brothers, coworkers, father/son, husband/wife pairs. The puzzles aren't terribly challenging but it's edited pretty tightly. It's a fun, lighthearted challenge reality show.

They do try to bring some Bond locations and such in but it could be heavier in that category. Great score flourishes musically as well.

I have only watched 2 episodes of this show but I am already thinking this 'could' of been so much better, as have most of the contestants shown at a later stage and how they got there, which obviously meant they had done the challenge and got the question right so absolutely no drama.

There are parts that show the challenges as they happen and this works so much better.

I hope the later shows don't have so many spoilers as it really makes a potentially good show really rubbish.

It really is a lost opportunity that a big budget show like this has no idea on how to do drama and should take some notes from some of the more superior shows such as the traitors etc.

This is a tv show which has nothing to do with the James Bond series. I don't know why they have spent so much money to get the 007 name and the theme. The production is big, encompassing many countries but the whole show lacks energy and excitement. They have Brian Cox to head the show but he does nothing nor adds nothing to the show. Any guy with a voicebox would do. I love well written reality shows like Taskmaster or Traitors and this isn't one of them. This show promises the adventures of James Bond but it doesn't deliver. Locations + cabriolets + soundtrack is not equal Bond adventures. What the contestants do is go around different locations, find briefcases which contain questions and answer them. This is the scope of Bond life promised. I hope they do better with new episodes.
