Well I saw the full trailer for this before Saw V and it looked fucking amazing!

I still haven't seen Casino Royale, so it's still a bit shocking to see a serious Bond film. A lot's changed since Roger "smaaaaaaaarm" Moore, hasn't it?

Dude, its a direct sequel to CR so watch that first ok?!

Yeah for fucks sake Hendo, and you watched Saw 5 BEFORE youve seen casino royale?....somebody have a word.

I saw this today.

First of all, despite what the internet would have you believe, it's not shit IMO. Bear in mind it's no Casino Royale though.

The story is basically a sequel to CR, so I'd watch that again before seeing this. I didn't, and hence I was somewhat confused all of the way through it.

It's short, has a decent story and is basically escapism for a while. Daniel Craig as Bond is great, he really is the closest to Fleming's original books. A cunt, basically. So yeah, if you go expecting Casino Royale again, you'll be disappointed, but if you go and expect it to be a fun action movie, you'll enjoy it.

watched this on friday, and to me it didnt seem like a bond film n focus maybe a bit too much on revenge.

It didnt seem emotional enough in a way like the old one.

Some bits looked really bad as well, such as

omg 3 seconds from the floor, open the parachute, SPLAT, im ok!

I did like the bond girl who played Fields tho, i like red heads :) Shes not as good as eva tho.

Yeah im pretty much the same about the film.

My two major complaints were:

The editing. Everything was cut way too short and fast so you couldn't take in the action. Lots of the time it was confusing to see what was going on.

The parachute bit is a prime example..... The pace was ALL wrong and really let it down.

I guess why they did it was cos they had to keep the film shorter and so trimmed stuff down, but it just didn't work.

The other thing was that it was trying to be a Bourne film.

This could have been Bourne Quantam of Solace if you didn't know any better.

You put Bond and Bourne head to head and Bourne wins hands down. Jason Bourne is younger, more aggressive... he is trained to KILL... he is a weapon. Bond is not so much and its stupid of them to force people to compare.

They should have enough confidence in the franchise to keep going in the direction they were going in with CR.

Not enough time was spent on revealing more about Bond himself either.

All in all an enjoyable action film but a bit of a disapointment after Casino Royale held so much promise.

I DO really hope it continues to get panned by the critics and press so that they make a real effort with the next one.

I saw this last night and do you know what completely and utterly ruined the film for me?

The effects. They were utterly fucking shit. Like some retarded wanker from London did them in between wanking over his PS3 and PSP. Honestly, dont bother.

Yeah well feck you all :-p

We did the opening car chase (not the credits) and the airplane chase and skydive.

Everytime u see bond in the car chase it was actually a bluescreen and also added bullet hits and breaking glass and shit.

Actually, those were bloody good. Well done dude.

Although, was the fact that they pulled their parachute a second before the ground down to you and your bluescreen? Cos that sucked.
