agreed - i even think he sounds like connery every now and then. could've done with being a bit shorter; but a good plot nontheless - shame to replace q with a bunch of faceless scientists back at mi5, and the car could've seen more action. good, good film though!

Good point - I didn't even think of q. Now that you mentioned it, we did miss q....the film was good enough for me not to notice.

I am a little late on this one, but I just saw this last night, and thought it was the best Bond movie in a very very long time, possibly ever. The movie seemed much more realistic and more about espionage and subterfuge, then about having fancy gadgets and Bond doing super over the top things. If they continue to make more like this, it would be a very good thing.

I also came at this one late - only managed to catch it last month (hard to believe for a so-called Bond fan, but it was worth the wait, and on Blu-ray too). Easily my favourite of the series thanks to some tight writing and great performances, and I agree with what you say about espionage. They've set the mark very high for the next film. And yes, Craig is IMO the best since Connery, even though I hold a soft spot for ol' Rog.

(EDIT: no, I don't mean "our Rog"!)
