i'm using the line in my title because it wasn't said in the movie, though it didn't really need to be. everyone already knows who he is anyway. i mean the idea that bond can move around unrecognized is just silly now. this movie however, was not silly, not in the least.
there were definitely aspects i really enjoyed, a few things i was happy to see gone, and a few things i didn't like. so here's my opinions. i still, of course, recommend this movie to all. i enjoyed it more than the last bond, and probably more then the bond before that, AND the bond before that...but don't ask me to justify all of that because i can't really remember all the details from the previous bonds. i mean, there's been like what now, 22 or something? c'mon.
likes:
jam packed with action - exciting chase scenes from foot, to car, to planes
painful/believable looking stunts (swinging in balconies, running/skidding on tile roofs, leaping over railings etc.)
daniel craig's eyes
the scenery shots
the fact they omitted sooo many innuendos and corny one liners - finally! in previous films it was just over kill - the few insinuations/innuendos and sarcastic phrases said in this movie made me chuckle
the cool gadgets - expected (but there could have been more) - and for my bf, bond's sunglasses
the idea that revenge was on the agenda. made for an action packed, entertaining movie.
dislikes:
the annoying opening theme song featuring alicia keys and the white stripes guy
the hair of the side kick to main bad guy, dominic greene. it reminded me of jim carrey's hair in dumb and dumber
the unrealistic part when they fled the plane with one parachute, and managed to open it only moments before falling into rubble and rocks and then getting up completely unscathed. not even a twisted ankle? and then the fact she climbed out of the rocks and walked into the desert with bare feet?
that's hollywood for you!
go see it!
thanks for taking me, i had such a great night away with you!

Oatman.Jessica Oatman,
That is good that you went to see this movie and enjoyed it. I recently watched the last one and it was pretty good although I don't think that I would be going to see the new James Bond, unless Jack drags me to it.
Yeah I heard the opening song and well I first saw an add for it on the computer and was like HOLY Jack White and Keys that will be good so i listened to it and it was not that good.
Yeah crazy stunts that would not happen in life at all are always good as you can tell by my liking of Hot Fuzz and other action movies but when something is trying to be serious and but is still crazy unrealistic then sometimes it is not good. But like the case in Shoot 'Em Up when everything is soo ridiculous then it just makes the movie. But who does not go to see an action movie for the crazy amazing none realistic stunts!
The 108s feature a semi matte rhodium frame with black temple tips and smoke blue lenses (19V). The frames are handmade by Marcolin in Italy and the James Bond logo is engraved on the inside of the temple ....
