The action is there but the magic is missing..........

Rating: 7/10 (11 November 2008)

Finally got to watch it last night. This movie starts with an action scene and continues with more action with little break between them.
Liked the movie as an action film, not as a bond film.
I miss the bond theme guys. i mean you are making a bond movie without the bond theme for the second time in succession. Please don't make that mistake again. It is an integral part of the character for me, i love the moment when it starts building up in anticipation to what brilliance bond is gonna display next. So the theme is a must.
Also, I know that you have to show women as strong and independent, as they are today, but the balance is not right, they also have to fall for his charm. Which should not be assumed (as in this one) , the banter between him and the girl is what makes it more sexual and implied ( as you want to get lower ratings).
So all in all worth a watch , like the way you are going gritty with the emotions , but please don't lose the bond we like.
