Was it Kl? I want to see it even though I'm not enamored with this Bond. I do like the voice though.

I agree, Ketchuplover. We just got back from the movie, and really enjoyed it.
Wasn't sure about the choice for Bond, but he was good.

Can't get VinBlanche to the movies for love or money, BUT occasionally there's one on his wish list. And THIS is it. So here's hoping he actually sees it. I love going to the movies with him! Its romantic and sweet, but his attitude is... it will always end up on tv so why bother to go to the theatre? Ack!

Dearie, It was a good action film, judging by the fact I had my hands over my eyes for half of it. LOL. BUT I like my Bonds to be sexier, wittier, and less uptight. But the girl in the movie was lovely and the new bond was fine, but just not 'Bond'.

Vinblanche says: "Hi guys, The film was okay as an action flick, but VERY UN-Bondish".

Chaplin says, "but if you like Bondage..." um, never mind, she's just on a bad pun roll. Heh heh. She says that she found many continuity errors and other bloopers. Vin agrees with Chaplin, but I didn't notice any.

Except a scene where Bond suppposedly does CPR. I won't say more, but its hilarious and its not supposed to be. Two words, booby-squishing!

loved it as a good action movie.

the new Bond is supposed to appeal the the newer generation as he certainly isn't in character of the older ones. so, i didn't feel like i was watching a Bond movie. he was very polished - very ruff cut. and, his arrogance came across as arrogance. he also isn't attractive to me so the romantic role did't work.

but, the action was great. the stunts were great - especially the very first one that ended up in the embassy. that was very well done.

i did spot a couple of continuity goofs but they didn't distract me that much.

that is what I was afraid of. He isn't very Bondish. I miss Pierce Brosnon. ( I keep wanting to call him Remington Steel.)

Best Bond ever. The others seem kind of wussyish lol (new word) compared to this bond. Loved everything about the movie. Eva Green is a great bond girl. I thought the Italian girl in the movie was alot more beautiful and mesmerizing than eva though.

Heh. You know what really bothered me about the movie? The size of the ears of the actor playing Bond. No gorgeous young woman is going to flirt outrageously at first sight of a man with ears like that. Shallow, I know, but really. You just know Bond is not a galoot with big ears.

I don't know, Juju, Clark Gable had big ears but that smile and eyes of his made them look small!

I have never seen a Bond movie...Dylan and I loved this movie! Now we want to see more of them....so the other Bond's are more funny? I thought this one had a couple funny lines...esp when he was getting hit with the whip...'a little to the left' hahaha

All I can say about the Bond films is that they vary considerably. Some are funny and some are more serious. Some are great (IMO) while others aren't as good. It depends on what you are looking for.

(I haven't seen Casino Royal yet, but I heard elsewhere as well that it is very good)

LOL! we are planning on getting at least 1 per weekend!

Any suggestions for what we should pick next? I have a feeling the really old ones might not be a blockbuster though

Pamy, I asked my son, who is the James Bond expert, and he suggested Dr. No, From Russia with Love and Goldfinger if you like the older movies with Sean Connery, and Goldeneye for something more recent (it's the first one with Pierce Brosnan and, as he put it, "came after the horribleness that was Timothy Dalton").

I thought it was very overrated. I'm pretty much of the Seen 1 Bond movie, seen 'em all mindset. I remember reading it was supposed to be the best Bond film to date. Judi Dench was my fav.
