I thought it was s**t. French bird can't act her way out of a paper bag and the storyline

was essentially Skynet and then another hour stuck on the end for no apparent reason. Almost like they had a contract for 2.5 hours and wondered what the f**k to do for 60 minutes. The transition between those two parts is marked with the line "It's not over yet" which I don't think was meant to be as funny as I found it (i.e. they read my mind - woohoo I can get the f**k out of here but no.....not over yet).

Nice touches back to the old Bonds (fluffy cat, facial scar, DB5, ), and a very naughty subtle joke about "C" a couple of times which only the Brits seemed to get.

Daniel Craig exudes the personality of a goldfish. Quite like the young Q character. Action scenes were Die Hard-level ridiculous.

But then I never did like Bond movies. I only went to this one cos friends convinced me to join.

Monica Bellucci should have had a bigger role. Phooooaaaar and at least she can act a bit.
