OMG...it was FANTASTIC!!!

I saw it twice today and still crave more!


FAR more enjoyable that I was expecting, and a real ride with a superb storyline! DANIEL CRAIG IS THE BEST BOND EVER! I was hooked on everything, from the opening title sequence (which was super!) and the poker game which was far far far better than I was led to believe!


AGGHGHGHGG there is just too much to praise!!

:)

The Aston Martin, the chase sequences, Vesper, the minimal gadgets, the humane touch, the blood, the weeping eye, Le Chiffre, M, the music...Bond!

I hope everyone out there loved the return of 007 as much as I did, and pray for him to return soon!!!!


Christ..this is a crappy review, I will do one soon when I have calmed down...but I loved it. Loved it. LOVED IT.


Thank you to the CR cast and crew....thank you!!

Absolutely superb, DC is just amazing, not too long for me, some real sizzling chemistry between Craig & Green.

Going to see it again tomorrow with my wife, can't say how pleased I am that my faith in this film and all my promotion to friends insisting to them how good it was gonna be is fulfilled

This will indeed gain more fans for the series, people who would normally not have any reapect for Bond are gonna be pleasantly surprised.

If their's any justice this will get the best opening in Bond history and top DAD's take, anyway we will see but if the quality of the film is anything to go by then CR deserves all the sucess in the world.

The closing scene were Craig gets to utter the immortal line just made the hair's go up on the back of my neck.

Just fantastic, Well done Daniel, if this first entry is any thing to go by then Connery better watch his crown cause their's a new James Bond in town and this one kicks some serious [censored].

This is the Bond film we've been waiting for and it's finally here.

10/10

Mads certainly deserves more credit for his fine performance. In fact there wasn't one duff performance from the cast.

This film really has broken the mould.

The supporting cast seemed a bit variable, but Mads did very well I thought, certainly he is one of the film's pluses.
