Worst Bond EVER!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (11 January 2007)

This is by far the worst Bond movie ever. There is nothing Bond about this movie. The character was Americanized and dumbed down to a level even XXX and Jet Li fans would find boring. No cheeky one liners, no sophistication, no resemblance of 007. If you enjoyed the Dalton Bond movies or you enjoy half-hour chase scenes and an endless poker game by all means have at it. If you are a Bond fan skip it, and pass on the DVD (rental or otherwise). At first, I thought the film was trying to go back in sequence and produce a legitimate Casino Royale (as the previous was a spoof), but really, no continuity, no originality, just a horrible production. He drove a Ford Escort for pity's sake. They even went so far as to bring in terrorism and 9/11. Did anyone even catch the irony of them dredging up 9/11 and airport security then had the balls to shoot the final scene with a building toppling down. I regret sitting through the entire film and hope this saves anyone else the trouble.
