I completely agree with KP ^


No way - Bourne in a total different league i think - light years ahead of majority of the films in the past 3 odd years....bring back Bourne thats what i say lol


I'm not trying to compare the 2, i was just saying the scenes with the rooftop and jumping from house to house was nothing new as Bourne did them in the Ultimatum.

I enjoyed it. It doesn't disappoint, but perhaps slightly underwhelms.

Thought that it probably wasn't as good as Casino Royale. However, it was a good film to show Bond dealing with his emotional state due to Vesper's treachery. Remember, this film is meant to be set before all of the other Bonds before it, so Casino Royale & QoS have developed his character.

It does feel like the 2nd part of a trilogy... or perhaps simply the end of a 2 parter. Let's hope the next one sees Bond slightly more light-hearted.

That being said I agree with KP with regards to some of the action scenes. Camera seemed a little too jumpy and a lot was going on. I reckon they were trying to give the perspective from those in the action scenes (jumpyness, lots going on etc) but I don't think from an audiences point of view that it works.

Positive from me though.
