Thanks for your review, Clark. I agree with what you wrote about this movie being a sequel to Casino Royale and it can be tough to follow on its own, but I still loved the movie! I liked this new Bond– in your face, straight shooter, raw and no holds barred action. And I also love this new James Bond song– a duet by Jack White and Alicia Keys– that was an odd combination and yet it worked for me! And the James Bond girl in this movie is HOT!! I hope she’ll be back in the next film! I was skeptic with Daniel Craig playing James Bond but he put his own stamp on the role and gave the series new life!

I don’t mind the title, Michael. I just think it’s a bit odd. Certainly more interesting than “007 in New York”.

The not so good title is the name of one of Ian Fleming’s short stories about Bond. During Bronsnan’s time they came up with original titles but they seem to want to use the last bits of Fleming’s legacy they can. There’s only about 4 unused titles left, perhaps “007 in New York” sounds better to you? I’ll see the film and don’t mind a less gadget driven film.

Character development is one thing I thought was striking in its absence from this film. Even if you’ve seen Casino Royale, it’s just hard to work up any kind of emotional connection to Craig’s toneless, dead-eyed, not-so-bright serial killer version of Bond.
