.Only one word comes to a guy's mind while watching a Bond movie - 'Awesome' but this time it was 'Sucks'. May be a capital u, c, k, and s along with the S might help...Nah it wont. A bold with an underline is evidently required.
Now lets begin to dissect this movie. First of course, the center of the plot Mr Bond or in this case Mr Bonda. There's more to a Bond than mere coupling of an Armani or a Gucci with an Aston Martin. When news came a couple of years ago that Daniel Craig would be the next Bond, I thought it was some sort of crazy humorless rumor spread by some sadistic neurotic bastards of Hollywood. I believed that the day when Craig would become Bond would be the day I would be replacing Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. Pah but that bugger Craig (No I'll call him Daniel from now on, reminds me of a dog!!) became a Bond much to my bewilderment and I'm still here, hating and loathing him instead of talking in electrically modulate voices or clinging onto a cliff with one hand. Common look at him, look at Daniel; even that teenage star of Agent Cody Banks can perform better than him. One look at Daniel and you know why we call ourselves descendants of apes. To compare Daniel with Pierce Brosnan would be more of an insult, who has such class and style. If by any chance (god forbid) Daniel and Pierce Brosnan are in the same movie then I'm sure Daniel will be Brosnan's chauffeur..no driver is a more apt word. OK agreed Daniel has a better body than Brosnan, but common this is a Bond movie not Bloodsport. All that matters is you know how to handle a PPK with a silencer wearing a suit, and a hot babe with a martini in hand.
Moving over to the plot, pathetic is the word. What the hell is happening in the movie? Where are the famed 007 car chases, advanced gadgets, gorgeous girls and flirting?? Oh well you wanna see those then watch the older Bond movies. As a matter of fact Dr No has a better car chase than this one, even thought that movie is older than Daniel himself! Wiki says he's 41, but you know these days a lot of bogus stuff gets published on Wiki.
The Bond and The Bonda
By the way you might ask then why did I even bother to download and watch this movie. Well what can I say, I m human. And any human who hasn't slept over the past 24hrs and hasn't had coffee over the past 1 hour is susceptible to reasoning impairment.
Chases.. not only in cars are the best in Bourne series AFAIK,, Nice post though..
