Daniel Craig's performance is absolutely brilliant!!

Rating: Null/10 (17 November 2006)

Well, what can one say about the new James Bond film... the opening sequence is rather mystifying, if not baffling, but the imagery (the use of black and white) is fantastic. The opening title sequence then follows in what has to be the best the title sequence I have ever seen, however the song is not that good which is disappointing... The Bond film then starts with high octane stunts, Sebastien Foucan performed his own stunts and it adds that little bit to the film, but to be honest it is disappointing when you find out what it was all for. The storyline is rather shallow and rather confusing and it just prolongs and prolongs (at 145mins its way too long for what it contains) and the ending, well I think is one of the worst in a James Bond film. But, what makes it good is the fantastic acting from Daniel Craig, I always thought he had potential and boy did he show it by adding spice and style like no other bond has done. Finished are the stupid puns and replaced with comical lines (e.g. the torture scene), he alone deserves a 10/10... unfortunately thats not what I can say for the film. Better than Die Another Day, worse than The World Is Not Enough, this film is worth seeing only for Daniel Craig's performance... what Bond 22 needs to make it a good film is a proper storyline, less of the high octane power stunts, the inclusion of Q and a shorter film... I have to give this film 6.5/10
