Deadline.com (James Bond in Drag: Bad Idea <\/a>)calls the International Women’s Day short film featuring the characters<\/em> James Bond 007<\/strong> and his boss M<\/strong> “the very definition of ill-advised”<\/em>. Produced by Barbara Broccoli, perhaps it is also the very definition of what is wrong with the franchise today.<\/p>\n

\nThe video – narrated by actress Judi Dench, recreating her role as spymaster M – notes Bond’s “fondness for women” but asks if the suited spy has “ever considered what it might like to be one.”
