I REALLY liked this movie! Aside from the Bourne-ish "shaky action camera," I felt this continues the development of the "blunt instrument" into the suave super-spy that we've expected Bond to be. If you liked Casino Royale, you will like this movie. This is where I'm coming from: I loved Connery and Lazenby, couldn't stop laughing at Moore and sorta liked Dalton. I only liked Brosnan in Goldeneye, and have loved Craig so far. Gadgets are fun, but they shouldn't take over the movie. My picture of Bond is probably way different than yours, so take this recommendation with half a measure of Kina Lillet. Spoiler: Despite hating cheesy gadgets, I LOVED the Minority Reportish table/desk application gizmo. The nod to Goldfinger was a nice suprise, too. BTW, HATED the Jack White/Alicia Keyes song.
