Sigh. Those Koreans should have shot 007, and Brosnan in particular, when he was standing on that bridge. Brosnan even asked for it. It would have saved us from the total meaningless 2 hours of nonsense that followed. If I were to produce a list of all aspects that are totally unbelievable, I'd have to zip it and recommend you don't use an analog modem to download it. My God. And the humor is as dead as 007 should have been. "I'm Mr Kil." Bond: "That's a name to die for." "I'm Ms Frost." Bond: "You must be cold." Give me a break! It's as funny as one guy saying "My name is Brown", and another guy replying "Oh, so you must be an African American."
One other thing that immediately caught my attention: 007 had been in some Korean dungeon for 14 months, and guess what: he's chubby! Oh, yeah, sure, that's logical. Of course you get at least 3 hearty meals a day when you're locked up in some rat hole. I know it's virtually impossible to make him look emaciated, but the solution is so simple: don't show his torso. It's not that impressive anyway!
Bond used to have a mission. That mission was serving England. Saving the world. If he had to risk his life, he would. Now all he cares about is sleeping with women. Sure, I too wouldn't mind sharing the bed with beautiful women all the time, without having to say more than "My name is Bond", but a special agent like 007 should have more on his mind. Bond used to go to bed with women because he suspected something or had to get something out of them (the other way around gives us a 'joke' that would fit right into 'D.A.D.'...). Now he knows nothing about them, just wants to score a cheap lay. That's his only mission in this entire piece of film that should never have been made.
Rating from the Dutch judge: 4 (out of 10).
