Saw it today gee-golly-gee, it was smurfing BRILLIANT. One of the best Bond movies made to date, imho, along with The Man with the Golden Gun and A View to a Kill.

I think Craig faced a lot of unfair criticism and took a lot of unwarranted flak before the release of this movie, and I'm glad he's done gone showed the critics just what fantastic stuff he's made of through an absolute stellar performance.

He's been by far the most HUMAN Bond that I've ever seen. Brosnan was entertainment, but an impeccably smooth dandy I couldn't ever really empathise with, y'know? And you can just sorta tell they're trying to cut the norms with this Bond film. I mean...

for example..."Shaken or stirred?" "Do I look like I give a damn?" xD smurfing brilliant. And the balls-scratching bit. Not to mention the fact that Vesper -- y'know, how she goes on about James' walls and stuff. I think the fact that we can actually see so much of Bond's vulnerability in this film is just great. He's a COMMON hero! He's one of US! Not some unreachable secret agent in a high-tech world inaccessible to us~ And the fight scenes were just breathtakin'. Damn, I mean, the beginning bit where that guy with burns on his face is leaping...that smurf's DANCING. Not jumping across buildings xD That was amazing, as was the Venetian buildin crumbling down like sand.
