First Bond I Actually Liked

Rating: 9/10 (9 August 2009)

I have not been a fan of Bond! I tried watching several of them, but the scene that is etched in my brain is Roger Moore surfing down a ski hill doing things that are really just beyond this world.
I suppose what I completely disliked about Bond is that it was tacky showmanship from another bygone era of movie making.
This Bond was different and yes lots of action, but you know I might even start to like Bond. Let's put it this way this was my first Bond DVD, and I know I will buy the next one.
Is this similar to say Bourne? Yeah there are hints in this movie. But then again one could argue that Bourne is the modern Bond? So if this offends die-hard Bond fans? Yeah, and well that's life... Just like how I consider myself a die-hard Star Trek fan and was not amused by the latest Star Trek movie.
Then again times change....
