James Bond (Danial Craig) recieves double-o status and enters a high-stakes poker game to stop a financer of world terrorism.
Excellent movie all around. (As long as you don't mind a blond Bond, which I don't). I appreciate that the series has abadoned the cheesy-type movies they made with Pierce Brosnan, except for Goldeneye. I enjoyed Goldeneye. It reminds me of where the Batman series went before Batman Begins. The only slightly cheesy part in this movie is the unbelievable action, especially the crane sequence. However, I will give them the fact that it is a movie after all and action in general keeps getting bigger and crazier.
The dialogue between Vesper Lyd (Eva Green) and Bond is wonderful, especially during their first meeting on the bullet train. This movie also has the funniest torture scene. Probably the only funny torture seen ever.
Also, crashing Aston Martins, ouch. My dream car...
My favorite parts of the movie:
Refreshing humor
the poker game
the opening credits
Dame Judi Dench (M) is always wonderful
Aston Martins
And I must say Bond in his swim trunks, ow ;)
5 out of 5 stars.
