Yawn...she's a fu cking actress, not a charitable saint

Well, I personally thought Halle Berry did a better job than Pike. I thought Pike was somewhat lacking...she seemed too stiff, and like a robot. I admit that Berry's lines weren't that wonderful, but she did a good acting job.

They're both good Bond gals though, but I think there have been better anyway.

Pike was cute as a button and her character was way too underused and poorly executed (both literally and subjectively).

Halle Berry, although I like her as an actress, had an absolutely terrible character here. I still can't get that horrible image of her killing Pike and shouting "bitch" out of my head! For God's sake, it felt like that fight had more screentime than the fight between Bond and Graves (it may have actually had more time - I'm not sure)! The climaxes to Bond films should be centered around Bond!

Of the two, I'll have to stick with Pike.

It's worse than Bond surfing the pressure wave!

Jinx bothered me somewhat. I must admit though, that at first I thought Miss Berry would be a good Bond girl, but she was a complete let down, I found her too American...and who wears leather in Iceland when it's that cold!? And how the hell does she save the world in that bra thing? It wouldn't hold anything in place!
Forgive me, I just needed to complain.

My congrats to Rosamund though. She did an excellent job, right up there with Xenia.

I wish she didn't have to die though...she should live to die another day! :) Now that would be cool!

You know, if you don't like actresses, or have any respect for the craft, one wonders why you're a movie fan. :shrug:

Definately that Rosamund Pike was better than Berry. It's a pity that they couldnt do anything better with a talent like Halle Berry, cause she is a good actress. But her character Jinx is one of the most boring and unintersting Bond girls ever!
Rosamund Pike did a great job as Miranda in the film, except for one scene. In her scene with M, she does a pretty weak acting effort. Not good at all. She sounds fake and not at all realistic in just that scene. In the rest of the movie... Great!!!
