I'll try, no idea if I'll get tickets anytime soon... The plan is to go on Friday, we'll see what happens. I've heard mixed reviews, but Daniel Craig is pretty much a badass bond, so it of course has potential. I'll be expecting a good movie, but I'm still hesitant, hoping Casino Royale wasn't a one-time only sort of awesome.

'Twas pretty good, ending got a little too cliche: "chain reaction exploding complex"

Just saw it last night.
It was pretty good, not amazing, but entertaining. If you have the money to blow, and nothing to do, it'll put a smile on your face.

Yeah... I liked it, but I think it kind of sets a presidence for them to be able to move James Bond back to a much more ridiculous role like the one Pierce Brosnan was playing. Which I don't like... The ending sucked IMO.

Did you know that Pierce wanted Bond to be killed while he had the role? What a douche. He wasn't even that great.

It wasn't great. Got a little slow, the ending just cut off. There were no gizmos, typical Bond 1 liners, or a lot of T&A. I mean ****, the Aston Martin was only in the first 1 minutes of the movie....the damn movie featured Ford........

No gizmos is your complaint? LOL

The only reason these Bond movies are palatable is BECAUSE they got rid of all of that hokey crap. At least now his car isn't a rocket ship or some stupid ********. It was simply getting out of hand and they had to stop it.

Did you fail to read the rest of my post?

I was simply stating that this particular Bond film strayed away from what originally made this series popular. IMO it seemed more like a Jason Bourne movie, not Bond.

Who do you think owned Aston Martin while the movie was being filmed?
