When I go see a James Bond film, I typically am expecting: scantily clad women, gun battles, hand to hand combat, a chase scene or two, some tongue and cheek dialogue and a pompous bad guy.
This was no exception - all expected elements were definitely present, but I was surprised by how much effort was put into the storyline. They really give you an excellent glimpse into the past of both Bond and the bad guy. Kuddos to Sam Mendes for making a Bond film with a story I would actually read.
My only mild complaint is that the pacing started to slow toward the end of the film - not significantly enough to lose me, but enough to make me wonder how long the movie was.
Daniel Craig has really solidified himself as the best Bond - the strength and bad ass-ness of Sean Connery and the charisma of Roger Moore/Pierce Brosnan. I really do hope they continue to use him because he really is perfect for the role.
Keep them coming and I'll keep shelling out the cash - saw it in IMAX at the action scenes were amazing on that huge screen.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.
