I downloaded a very good quality cam copy of this and watched it again. Some of the visual are really stunning, some of it's a little bland.
But the story is still just way too thin to me. It's just about 1 guy who was pissed off that MI6 left him to die to save the lives of other agents and wanted revenge. That's all it was, and its a story we've seen in many other movies basically. There needed to be some other story elements to make this feel thicker and more original. The whole cyber terror thing is just lame. It's used in so many action movies now.
- In fact wasnt another Bond movie about cyber terror? World Is Not Enough or something?CygnusZero4

^ Craig is doing 2 more after this and that will probably be it for him. He'll be getting too old by then. I would guess they'll get on another one in a year or 2. Im sure he has other movies to shoot before the next Bond.

The ending was so terribad!!!
I hope that Daniel Craig gets his wish and can exit this franchise early. It did seem like the film was intentionally written with this being a possibility.Casino Royale is still the best Bond film, by far. (A near perfect film actually, IMO.)

Yes, less shiny gadgets & offices but more explosions and motorcycles chases on rooftops (my only other Bond movie for reference being Casino Royale). And like others here have mentioned, the story is a pastiche of recent action movies that could have been better digested in isolated 5 minute segments.
Still, go see it. The photography is pretty and Bardem's acting a lot of fun. His acting is the only one that matched the unintended campiness of the dialogues. If you liked Home Alone...

SPOILERs/ was so excited to see this. loved the last two. was not happy. not mad either, just whatever. no twists, no turns. saw everything coming a mile away. and why the old scottish housekeeper needed a flashlight when the entire countryside was lit up with bright orange fire, i'll never know. the beginning was great though. wish they'd kept whatever they had goin in Casino Royale here. :|
