I am suggesting that most films are not based on reality - they require some suspension of disbelief. I have seen many action films where human beings cannot perform the actions the stars do - but I have fun while watching the film. I think Bond is probably the case in point. The character has little in common with reality, and is unbelievable. But it sure is fun. If unbelievable characters and situations were, in and of themselves, indicators of a bad film, then many fine films would be bad. I believe they call it suspension of disbelief. Kids can do it. Why not adults?
