Saw it yesterday and enjoyed every minute. I loved the psychadelic opening credits sequence too, a real welcome change. Still not sure about that damn song though.
I loved it. I love the way it picks up from the end of Casino Royale and hits the ground running straight away. I loved the relentless action. It was very appealing and damn entertaining. Daniel Craig was superb throughout, so good in fact that the villians and Bond girls just faded into the back-ground. The man holds the screen totally as Bond, and is utterly mesmerising.
I loved the part where Bond and the goon are dangling on the end of ropes and trying to take each other out. I thought that was so innovative. I also loved the aerial dogfight.
There really was nothing here not to like. Total utter, wham bam action packed entertainment. A winner.

I found them to be quite Binder-esque. Not always a compliment I appreciate, but very retro.
Daniel Craig was superb throughout, so good in fact that the villians and Bond girls just faded into the back-ground. The man holds the screen totally as Bond, and is utterly mesmerising.
Future Bond girls especially will need to be very good actresses to hold their own up on the screen amongst Craig and Dench who both gave their best performances so far.

Very enthusiastic ChickenStu.
I too liked the dogfight, it was epic and nicely shot. I know people point out that we are going back to fantasyland with Craigbond able to fly a plane. But I liked the sequence.
I have also gotta agree that Craig is great in it. He inhabits Bond so well. Would have liked a bit more humour, but there you go.
This review picks my mood up with positivity
