Entertaining, but not memorable

Rating: 6/10 (17 November 2008)

After the previous Bond "Casino Royale" my expectations for this one were high. I like Daniel Craig as James Bond. These movies do not contain all the Bond clichés, and that is certainly something that works well for the suspense. Unfortunately in this movie they cut out another part, and that is a well told story. From minute one, this movie is action, action and more action. The plot is really thin and most characters are shallow. I remember thinking during the break that the movie still needed to get started. The first half was like a 60 minute trailer: Lots of spectacular shots, but no clue what it is about.
It was good entertainment for the Friday night. It kept me well awake although I was sleepy, but its not one that I am going to remember a year from now.
