James who?

Rating: 3/10 (16 May 2007)

Oh, dear James, how deep have you sunk! From a charming gentleman to nothing but a common thug! Ian Fleming would turn in his grave could he see it! (I'm surprised that this movie has got such high ratings, but I guess many people have never seen the 'older' kind.) I was never much of a James Bond fan, but in its first conceived version at least the movies had some originality and imagination, including interesting gadgetry. But this 'new' James Bond movie has not much more in common with the original idea than the name. And it all looks like we've seen it all before. Ian Fleming could sue the makers of this movie for misusing the name, but, what a shame, he is dead. …And so is James Bond.
