My Review-

This was not my favorite of the new bond series that has come out, granted there have only been 2 so far this was a bad one from the upgrade. Even though I think Daniel Craig is a great Bond, this movie should have not have continued from the first one, and at times I found myself lost in the film trying to figure out what the hell was going as the movie progressed. I found myself a little bored at times with the film and then it just ends abruptly and I did not know what to think of the ending. I will say that the action scenes were cool; car chases shootouts and others things. With the villain of this movie he did not seem like much of  a villain like from the one in the first movie this one just seemed annoyed and what not. I do hope that Skyfall is better than this one because this one was kind of a downer, James Bond could have been more of badass in this movie and he was just whatever.
