A good Way To Get a Headache

Rating: 1/10 (2 April 2009)

I've seen every James Bond movie ever made and this is first time I've quit watching one before it was finished. Who wouldn't get a headache watching this? By the way, that's two crappy Daniel Craig-as-James Bond movies in a row.
Almost nonstop action with a hand-held camera, much of the time set so close to the action that there is no way my human eye, nor anyone else's, can focus enough to see exactly what's going on. I counted six action scenes in the first 35 minutes and by then, my head hurt. There is no way the brain is fast enough to register all of these microsecond sound bites. It takes the fun out of these wild action scenes. You can't follow half the things that happen.
Add to the mix a James Bond with no humor and no gadgets, which were essential to the popularity of the Bond movies over the years, and the fun is gone. Also, almost all the characters in here are unlikable, including the "good guys like Bond's boss "M" (Judi Dench), who can't utter a sentence without profanity, and another foul-mouthed female "heroine" all make this practically an unwatchable movie.
They've re-invented James Bond of the movie with Craig and it's not fun anymore. Even if it was, who can watch with camera-work like this?
