I watched this movie last night.

Rating: 4/10 (17 November 2006)

The acting was borderline tolerable. That's all I really have to say. The plot is slow and boring and quite frankly doesn't even achieve to be as close to greatness as the previous bond movies. Daniel is not believable enough to portray the character and for the most part of the movie seems to be doing simple rolling stunts and modelling for the camera.
They took a dashing agent character and turned him into a poor quality smuck who probably should have taken a few more acting courses before attempting to go to this role. At best, it was moderately okay. and I'm thankful that I work at a movie theatre and thus watch the movies for free and did not to pay for this disaster. I found it quite amusing however that the plot of this movie is that it is Bond's first mission, yet his missions date back to the 70's and I'm entirely positive that the 70's fashion and linguistics were not of today's and the certainly did not own cell phones.
I have two more things things to say. Clive Owen was smart to say he was too good for this role. and nobody will ever compare to Sean Connery.
