Ouch! Yes, Ouch! Ouch to a Bond movie so cool and tough, it hurts. Ouch to all the anti-blonde-Bond parade, who will be drowned out or eating humble pie thanks to Daniel Craig's seemingly effortless performance as Bond. And Ouch at "that scene" (if you aren't familiar with the story, you will know which scene I am referring to by the end). I won't bore you with the story, as its set-up is mentioned in just about every other review. By now you probably know this is Bond rebooted, Batman Begins style, without going too overboard on the "rebooting". Most of what you expect is still in place: babes, grotesque villains, action, exotic locales, Aston Martins. The gadgets have been stripped back to realistic levels (no invisible cars in sight - boom boom!) and gone are some of the more traditional aspects (Q, Moneypenny). In their place there is something that has been lacking in a Bond film for almost 20 years: a decent story.

One noticeable change about this film when compared to the recent Brosnan entries is that there are very few big name actors overshadowing the proceedings. The acting is on the whole a massive improvement over the last few, and look out for a few fun cameos. Daniel Craig sparkles as Bond, completely carrying the film on his shoulders. He
