Bloated brainless "Cellphone Royale"

Rating: 4/10 (19 November 2006)

I guess I'm in the minority. This seemed just another brainless, explosion-riddled, quick cut, cartoonish, plot-holed action picture featuring cellphones. It couldn't go 5 minutes without a cellphone scene. Good thing they has coverage and no dropped calls! The plot and character actions are senseless. No Q, no new gadgets. People survive massive explosions, car crashes, heart attacks, automatic weapon fire, long falls with only a few scratches. The Bond actor was good but not at all true to the Bond debonair image. The torture scene was both repulsive and silly.
Funniest thing was that during the picture I kept grabbing my cellphone by instinct. Then I noticed my cellphone gone when I started leaving the theater. I finally found it under a seat with a message saying "u got robbed"! 4/10
