Worst bond ever!

Rating: 4/10 (3 January 2013)

Wow! I have to suspend my belief almost as much to believe the positive reviews as I did to have to stomach the movie. I absolutely HATED the "good guys". The bad guy was great and they killed him off. Totally incompetent writing imo. The only reason the movie gets a 4 is the bad guy and that "M" is finally dead. Ugh! Terribly written script. I mean the guy can hack mi6 repeatedly, breach parliament and synchronize a train falling into a hole based on his explosive, to thwart his enemy, but gets whacked by a thrown knife (no, not in some plot twist)?? Not to mention about 50 of his "minions" got whacked by a guy that could barely hit a target. Bond "hooks up" with a girl that was human trafficked into sex work at 12. I'm sure she would be so into having sex with him after knowing him 5 minutes. I get it, it's pretend, but this was beyond cheesy. Also, note that "M" can kill easily with some gunpowder and a sack of nails but "real" grenades explode like large firecrackers when thrown by the baddies. I wish it had been even cheesier it may have made it comical but as is it was painful.
