Stop making Bond movies!

Rating: 1/10 (18 February 2013)

I can't even start and state how disappointed i was after watching the movie for the 2nd time (1st in the cinema, 2nd time on DVD). After watching it for the 1st time i left un-pleased and un comfortable from the outcome but now after watching it for the 2nd time, i and i have to say that everyone i know (family, friends) are saying that this might be the worse Bond movie ever (by the way many reviews here concur with what i have written and added much more). If these are the type of movies Mrs Broccoli is planning to make, maybe she should take out Bond for A retirement as Bond has nothing and i mean it nothing to sell, nothing to show for. The latest movie is just not reliable in any sense, the opening scene was so silly, Bond enters an apartment and sees a wounded agent, he looks for the bad guys that shot the agent and once he exists the building (in Istanbul) he is picked up by "agent Eve" and somehow the car of the bad guys is driving in front of them! They did not have to search for it, nor did they miss a step when agent Eve picked up Bond, and let me say that the scene just gets worse and even more unreliable as agent Eve shoots Bond, he hears her that she is going to shoot and he is in the way, he can Easily move out of the way (simply duck, or jump aside) but he continues fighting the bad guy just to get shot! This are just a couple of examples, the entire movie is full with holes, the bad guy is portrayed as a resourceful guy and at the same time as a complete idiot who makes all the wrong choices. The movie is suppose to be an adventure thriller (as the Bond tradition), but it is more like a drama. Even the scene that ends the movie is idiotic, Bond takes "M" and goes to Scotland to the mansion where Bond grew up, while they all know that the bad guy who has countless resources will follow them (they even leave clues for him to come to them), now with an old guy that is looking after the mansion and "M", Bond is suppose to fight an "army" (an un creative army just as the production-direction-script of the movie, complete armatures). If this ending scene would have had happened in some deserted spot on the planet it just might had been kind of acceptable but it is Scotland! Why can't Bond/M/The old guy pick up A cel phone and call for the "Cavalry"?? Actually the folks at headquarter at "M's" office know where she is, so why not send back up? Bond is portrayed for the 3rd movie now like someone with no brains, but someone that counts on his muscles. Maybe these are the capabilities of Craig? If so i think the time has come to let him go and if they cannot re-create a decent Bond movie they should just stop milking this cow and stop torturing the public with these awful movies and send Bond to retirement, we the audience deserve better and I take comfort in the fact that we will always have the memories of Connery and Moore.
