I thought the whole thing was a snoozefest. There were too many absurd scenes, most of them completely disconnected from one another, and the acting and chemistry between actors was either wooden or overwrought. Can't we have an ounce of believability or a plot that makes a tiny bit of sense? The plane chasing cars scene looked more like keystone cops or goofy + mickey mouse than a Bond scene. Also, why is Bond always dressed up in a GQ suit and tie, whether he's in London, Paris, or a train stop in the middle of the desert. Utter nonsense. Sean Connery had this role in the bag. Craig is simply too smug for his own good.
Part of the problem is I feel that Daniel Craig's acting ability is very limited to start with. Bond movies have always had an element of "suspend disbelief" but the Craig ones take it to a much higher level (nose bleed).
Like the helicopter in the Day of the Dead part...wouldn't that copter have CRASHED before they were done fighting each other???? I thought that copters are very sensitive in the controls.
