Mrs. Feek and I are going on Tuesday. It's her day off, I've taken a day off so we'll go during the day when it hopefully won't be full of screaming brats.

Saw it yesterday and it was utterly awesome!

If you hate Bond, watch it, it's nothing like the others. If you love Bond, watch it, it's how Bond should be. the thing that struck me was the other films Bond was the same person just a different actor playing him each time. In this one it doesnt seem to be the case.

Excellent!

Disappointing I’m afraid. Disappointing because this was sold to me as an action movie, and it clearly wasn’t for 75% of it. The closest description I can come up with is romantic thriller, which is not what I wanted to see. I wanted to see an action movie, and with action movies I expect to see this:

I don’t expect to be more interested in the people around me and what they’re doing than what’s happening on screen. It fails to deliver a movie which the first excellent 20 minutes seem to promise. The whole films stops dead when they reach Montenegro, and while I want to go into more detail about my thoughts on some of the scenes there I wont, as we’re in a no spoiler thread. Suffice it to say, a lot of time wasted with no plot or character development, and no action to compensate.

It’s a decent enough film (if very over dramatic), but a crap action movie. Either avoid it or change your expectations on that basis.

Should have gone to see Borat

Jay said it was full of ads and sponsorships, he didnt like it either

Daz · 19-11-2006, 20:50

I *think* Sony had some sponsorship. Possibly maybe

And Ford? And Omega? Wasnt there another...?

Cant say I particularly noticed. Sony was everywhere though, every screen, laptop and phone.

I wouldnt have ended up talking to the bird next to me watching ferrets

She said she wish I hadnt turned up, she could have lay down and got some kip. The gentlemen in me wanted to offer her my lap, but I didnt want to give her the wrong idea

What a crappy film, definately the worst Bond film I've seen.

I did like the bit where he's hammering the DBS along the roads, I could listen to that engine noise all day.

Wow - such a mixed review! I can't believe it was worse that Die Another Day or Tomorrow never dies etc...

I'm still going to see it at some point. In a way I'm glad it's completely different to the other ****ty Brosnan Bonds - though they will never beat the classics with Connery for me.
