If you promise to keep me away from the popcorn and sweeties counter, I'll go with you.

I daren't go alone at the moment. I completely fucked up my diet this week and my willpower is low.

If I can find the energy tomorrow to get out of bed and drive a 34 miles round trip to a good cinema near me, then I shall see this film, as it has a good re_iew as a film on the whole.

Just got back with the OH from seeing it. Will write a bit more tomorrow... I would say its a good thriller, but a sub-standard Bond. Adele doing a d*unken karoke about apple crumbles don't help

Brighton - even Hove!

Am waiting till it's quieter down Brighton Marina cinema, so I can get a good seat. Tried NOT to see the clips on TV but saw some and when I hum the tune to the Adele track it keeps turning into the casino royale tune- I think the 2 are similar tunes.

London

I'm waiting until the queues die down. They have a 1pm showing at Peckham Plex. It's half term this week too, so when the little darlings have gone back to school will book a half day and drool over Daniel Craig in peace.

Excellent film, and not just an excellent Bond film.

Highly recommended.

It was a bit of a kill off old characters and in with new ones, thought the big master evil complex bit was missing and it could have done with a little more editing. A bit disappointed overall.

"Just got back with the OH from seeing it. Will write a bit more tomorrow... I would say its a good thriller, but a sub-standard Bond. Adele doing a d*unken karoke about apple crumbles don't help "

Warning.... may contain spoilers for those who have not scene it!!!! See below.

Looking through, it seems only one other person agrees with me.

My OH really likes Craig, so we went to see the film. I hate Craig as an actor with a passion, not a word I use lightly.

With the film...

The opening scenes were really good, it goes back to the Bond of old with a great chase and remarkably, for Craig, some humour.

I liked the plot. I can imagine in the world of terrorism and espionage, that computer genii are a threat. Especially as keyboard warriors seem to be a growing phenonenom.

The film looked great, Sam Mendes is a great director and he made it look good. The baddie is great and I loved the scene at the baddies 'lair'

In all it was a good thriller, but I stick to my original statement, that it is not a great Bond....

The set at the casino looked great, but was pointless. Komodo dragons? What bollox, but a nice nod to Lie and Let Die

The sniper scene in the tower was beautifully shot, but seen it before in Mission Impossible. But a nice nod to the Man with the Golden Gun.

The set scene at the end, way to much Kevin from Home Alone and not enough Bond. The only thing missing was swinging paint cans and a baddie catching his head alight and put it down the toilet.

A welcome return to the Aston Martin, but all the nods to the past, makes you realise that Craig's Bonds are poor in relation.

My fav scene was Bond sitting in the dark at M's house. Fantastic silhouette, that made it look like Shrek was waiting for a chat with the head of MI6.

And therein lies the problem for me. Craig does not look like a Bond. As I said, my OH loves Craig, but even she came out of there saying he looked like shit. Bond should look exquisite in a tux, he looks like Steptoe. Bond should have confidence and a cold humour. Craig has no humour at all and looked extremely uncomfortable saying the 'funny' lines. He is a terrible, single facetted actor who makes tom Cruise look like Lawrence Olivier in comparrison.

For those who rattle on about he is true to the books, have you read them? I have and I dont think Craig portrays the Bond of the books.

As I said, I liked the film, but as a stand alone film, not a Bond. Craig is truly awful, but this is his best Bond so far.

My only worry is that who they replace him with.....

Best Bond to date in my opinion.

Adele's pub singer style vocals were good and also had shades of Shirley Bassey's Diamonds are forever, definitely ticked a lot.of boxes.for me.

Mrs Artful.doesn't like any Bond films, but she said it was brilliant and for once we agreed on something

We loved it - loads of appropriate humor, great baddy, loved the references to the past and the set up for the future from us.

Went and watched it alone last night - and loved every second!

Yes it's not the classic bond of the Connery/Moore era, but as a 'modern Bond' - infinitely superior to the lame Quantum of Solace and far better than Craig's first outing in Casino Royale.

Admittedly it's more Mission Impossible/Bourne now - but that's just the evolution of a near 50 yr old genre. Well shot, well scripted, great locations, a brilliant cast - Bardem has to be the best villain of recent films in the franchise - well worth a fiver!

I went on 'cheap night' - I'm not that old you cheeky sods!
