Reaction: Not only is Carte Blanche a record breaking hit (more on that in the Box Office Breakdown), but it also made enough of a profit to avoid becoming the least profitable season in LRF history (it comes as the 22nd highest grossing season out of 25, leap-frogging over three seasons to avoid the cellar).

"Carte Blanche is a fun, exciting new take on some classic Bond stories and villains. Some of the chase sequences feel redundant, but it all pays off with a finale for the ages. It's not a perfect film, but it is still hard to pinpoint its weaknesses. And with the introduction of an well-knwon criminal organization, I can't wait to see what comes next." - Michael Carthage, Associated Press
"While this sequel loses the novelty of restarting a franchise that Risico had, Carte Blanche is a great Bond film that builds upon what the first film put into place. Dan Stevens continues his great work as the new 007 and is joined by Benicio del Toro's great take on a former classic Bond villain, Francisco Scaramanga." - Richard Park, Globe and Mail
“Dan Stevens once more excels as 007 in ‘Carte Blanche’, and it helps this time around, that there is an even stronger villain in the mix. The action pieces, especially those of which in a jungle were amazing to see. Denis Villeneuve adds some flair to an otherwise straight forward story and to top it off the tease of a certain organization had me on the edge of my seat.” Jonah Wells, IndieWire
Rated PG-13 for violence, language and sexual content
