excellent

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 2006)

Now - we are aware of the www.craigisnotbond.com or whatever the hell it was who criticised Daniel Craig unfairly: (1) the film had not been made (2) Craig has an excellent acting resume (3) they had not read any original 007 books and didn't understand how much Craig looks like the JB of the books (4) the editor of the website admitted to not watching the James Bond movies but just thought Pierec was lovely (which he is) (5) Pierce has a contract for three movies with an option of a fourth - he made four (6) Pierce is 53 for goodness sake - he is too old, despite being the best Bond of all!
I was lucky enough to see a preview, and the movie looks excellent. Yes, a lot of product placement, but you need that to help fund the production. Not the best Bond film (I think that still rests with Lazenby, who is the worst Bond, but OHMSS was the best film), but a very good movie at that.
