Work hard, Play hard... et un peu de déconne!

Quand il n'est pas occupé par son herbier, le petit P sème des pierres blanches dans la forêt... Adepte de vieilles séries policères allemandes, il n'est pas peu commun de le trouver en train de manger la choucroûte devant la télé!

My opinion on the newest Bond

Pros
- Good action movie
- Fast paced
- Incredibly well filmed, ambiance very strong a lot of good effects: dampened sounds, slow-motion on Tosca Music, 8mm handcam grain effect
- Very little product placement (you barely see an omega, of course there are a few fords, alphas, and the occasional Smirnoff flash, Gordon Gin or this Kina Lillet, but it's nothing over the top)

Contras
- Too little Bond-like discussions (some but too little)
- No Champagne
- No "Bond, James Bond" !!!
- No Q, nor gadgets
- Too few shags: He only does Gemma A, but not Olga K. As a reminder: James used to actually shag three per movie...
- Crappy non-philharmonic theme song

All-in-all, I'm not as disappointed as some. I'm rather positive even... It's a great movie!

It's no Top 5: Goldeneye, Casino Royale, Goldfinger, Diamonds are forever, The Spy who loved me...

But it's in the league of the good ones, not in the bottom 3: Moonraker, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Die Another Day...

Cheers,
P

A little too much of Sony & Vaio, way not enough chaging .. has Bond lost his mojo ??
