Meh. I've never really been a Bond fan, though I will say this was at least more lighthearted than Casino Royale. 2 1/2 hours is much longer than this movie needed to be, even if we did get some entertainingly strange scenes (like a bad guy getting dragged off to a lizard cave) and some pretty decent action sequences (like the motorcycle chase on the roof). It's a long movie and didn't have nearly enough in it to keep me interested. 2 stars.
Flickchart: #1240 out of 2003, below Robin Hood and above Bedtime Story.
