Flat Story and Awful editing

Rating: 2/10 (15 November 2008)

I must say that I had very high hopes for this sequel. Unfortunately I left the theatre confused, dizzy, and lost. I felt almost no emotion for any of the characters. The villain and his actions created little in terms of suspense and intrigue. I was optimistic when I found out that Marc Forrester and Roberto Schaeffer were involved in this sequel but in the end I was very let down. I must say that the editing was ultra poor in terms of creating a coherent sequence to understand and enjoy. It was the same editing diarrhea that seems to be the trend for action scenes these days (I.e. Bourne Supremacy). It's almost as if the editing method was used to substitute for what was missing in the cinematography of the film. Everything that I enjoyed from the the Bond series (Especially Casino Royale) was missing from this movie and I hope it doesn't destroy what WAS a good thing.
