What this movie really needs is ...


... a longer, more boring plot.

No seriously:
Ken Adam sets
a John Barry score

i lost interest 1/4 way in or whenever Kim fucking walks past 007 behind a tree.. but like in front of it and doesn't see him..

idk man this movie just sucks. people try to defend it........... but it's just bad.

It's the trappings of the Bond film series I miss here. One of the best things about Superman Returns was that Singer had the good sense to just use Williams' music. Without the Bond theme, it's missing something.

I do really like the movie, but without the opening gun barrel and the Bond theme and similar little touches that just say "Bond", it's not *quite* the same.

No Bond theme, no gun barrel, different Q, different M, different Moneypenny. Whole different tone, look and feel. Cheesy, dated motorcycle. Cheesy, dated video game scene. The only good thing about this movie....is the presence of Sean Connery. But it was ill-advised to make this film, and it paled compared to Octopussy.

Leave Bond films to MGM/Eon...Wilson and Broccoli.

See, I'm starting to think that, with the rumours of EON trying to "pass the torch" that it might be a good idea to have a couple different companies making Bond. The competition might force them to appeal to fans instead of pandering to some politically-correct lobbyists who don't even watch 007.
