boring gay flick

Rating: 1/10 (5 July 2007)

While watching this movie, I couldn't stop wondering why there were so many scenes where Bond showed skin, but little to none for female characters. Was this really a Bond film or a gay film? The torturing scene (where Bond got beaten in the nuts by a rope) was in bad taste and just another excuse to show naked Bond.
As an action movie, this one is just way too boring. I almost fell asleep. The main character, James Bond, had little humor and facial expressions, and speak in monotone. The actions, which there were only a few scenes, were just too generic. The plot was also very weak and there was no climax. The casino / poker part was just terrible. The villain was actually trying to earn honest living through poker play without cheating? What a bad concept to start with. The main villain died poof just like that and it was not even by Bond. Even worse, the villain died in the middle of the film. The ending was just too long and had no actions (is this an action flick?, not to mention a Bond flick?)
