Can't wait to see this new movie!!!

|  | Supporting Member | | Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Central Ohio | | | Just saw it Sunday night. Loved it! It covers an "old vs new" or "new vs old" cultural delimma theme.
Some mini sub plots cover, loyalty and cold hearted betrayal of agents for the good of all.
Don't wanna blow the movie, so I won't but at the end of the movie, we see Bond do something that he's never done before in any of the other flicks.
Enjoy. Worth seeing.

Can't wait for the next installment. |

Hot girls - Oh yes. Eve is a pretty tasty Moneypenny too!
Cool cars - Can't go wrong with Jags, Land Rovers, Range Rovers and of course the DB5.
One liners - Check.
Welcome to Scotland
I think tplyons nailed it, it's a Bond film, not just a generic action film.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: Your location can be this long | | | Saw it last night. I'm a casual Bond viewer, so I can't say with authority, but it was one of the best I've ever seen.
What the heck, here's my ranking of the few I've seen:
1 - From Russia With Love
2 - Skyfall
3 - Thunderball
4 - The Spy Who Loved Me
5 - Die Another Day
6 - Quantum of Solace

Likely why I didn't enjoy Quantum of Solace so much.

So far it's pretty good. They gave us raincheck tickets so we can go back and see how it ends. |
