Not as great a movie overall as Casino Royale, but still very good. They could have added another half hour of character and exposition scenes, but they weren't remaking Casino Royale. Similar to Kill Bill 1&2 in terms of the 2 halves being different in tone and style from the others. Very fast pace and great action. For those who love the new James Bond and for those who thought Casino Royale was too slow.
Best movie of last couple of years. Great script, performances, and set pieces. When you leave the theater what sticks with you is how the script was working on so many levels and not the action, which was also fantastic. Somewhat similar to the Departed, but just as good if not better. Should win Best Picture.
