Bond loses his charm!

Rating: 5/10 (6 November 2008)

I saw this movie yesterday and I must say I wasn't pleased at all. Everything thing that made James Bond has been taken away from the movie and the result is that the movie has become a "standard" action flick....nothing more nothing less. If the main character wasn't named Bond....well then you didn't have a clue you were watching a James Bond title. For a bond-fan such as myself this is a real bummer.
I can't complain about the acting, M has a much bigger role in the movie and she played the part very well. I like Daniel Craig as James Bond and he plays the character very well. The villain isn't the regular villain as most people think, and that is nice to see. Let's say the bad guy has been updated to the modern day crimes.
I hate to make such a comment about a film series a really like...but after seeing the movie it left me no choice. With this last addition to the Bond-genre it looks like the directors are turning in a new road...and sadly it's a road i'm not going to follow.
If you like action-packed movies....well you are going to like were Bond is going...but to me....the genre has lost all the things that made a James Bond movie a James Bond!
