Brilliant Bond but for one point.

Rating: 8/10 (31 October 2008)

OK Lets make the following clear:
If you expect Moneypenny, glib one liners, Q and stupid gadgets turn away now, cos there isn't any. What there is, is better than that. Excellent acting, breathtaking locations, clever script/story and the best Bond in years. Craig is better every time. A superb actor who's portrayal of Bond is inch perfect. He's a troubled man, in a turbulent world where allies become enemies and vice-versa. The world has changed and so has this Bond to meet it. He's professional, ruthless and as cold as Craig's ice-blue eyes. He's a Bond of the 21'st Century. I want more!
OK now for my one BIG gripe. The editing was terrible, i mean terrible. The action sequences were like machine gun rapid to the point where I had trouble keeping up with the action, it was so fast. TOO fast. The editing was trying to out Bourne the Bourne films, didn't quite work. I wasn't alone in that train of thought either. As I left the cinema, several other expressed similar reservations.
However despite that, its a new Bond, in a new world.
