    myself and the girlfriend went to see it the other night and we both thought it was total bollox.

    The mysogeny isn't even funny anymore because Bond just came across as a bit of a cunt. The use of the "withering female" (classic bond mechanism) was really bad. THe premise that he was able to break out of the mould of "protecting the empire" and focus on personal vengence was ruined by the fact that the only lady he fucked along the way was murdered and he didn't really give a shit.

    The action editing was really irritating. The shoe-horned story of the corrupt environmentalists was also really weak.

    My g/f reckons bond just went downhill after Dalton and they keep making it worse.

    • You just got older. Bond always was a cunt. His opponents were always absolutely ludicrous. Car chase editing was bad indeed
