yeah, the direction is very good, although because its basically a card game and a drawn out love scene in the original story, they have boosted the action inbetween but when you get to see the game and the smooching it does slow the pace... and leave you wanting more action, thats not to say its not well done, its just well... oddly paced - which is probably the directors doing (fault?) (and partly the story)

yeah you can pick a few holes in any Bond movie, but this one is certainly a good reboot and will definately leave you wanting Bond 22... there is no reason why DC isn't now Bond...you feel by the end that he's the man, and every time you see him (outside of this movie) Craig WILL be Bond (well to me anyway)...

although as a Roger Moore (as Bond) fan - its far cry from the Safari suited eyebrowraising one line quips of the master... but Craig is so far so good...

job done i think.
