This new Bond movie with eastern ingredients stands taller than its predecessors.
China threatens'' theory.
Looks like China has taken over from the former Soviet Union to become the ''new'' baddy in western movies. But in the end ideological confrontation is no match for market considerations and talents in the east. And three cheers for Michelle Yeoh and martial arts director Kwok Chun-fung's team. While this author's love for Sean Connery remains unsurpassed, he cannot deny that Pierce Bushnam's new James Bond is the most human and forward-looking, and more than a romanticized hero. New Bond Girl Michelle Yeoh is clearly the best of the lot, playing an equally significant part as Bond towards film's end.
