Well acted good special effects but the plot

Rating: 3/10 (20 November 2006)

OK I enjoyed the way Daniel Craig portrays Bond and felt he added something to the character that no-one else had done before, I also enjoyed the way all the special effect were done especially the beginning chase, however what I didn't enjoy was the story line, I mean at the end of the day James Bond is supposed to be a spy / secret agent, why is it necessary to sit him at a poker table against a terrorism leader he is trying to get intelligence on, also I felt there was a severe lack of gadgets compared to recent Bond movies.
All in all i think the actors and director etc carried out the job at an above average standard however they were fighting a losing battle with the lack of thought gone into the story line.
