I first saw this in 2008 with my family in a theatre.
Revisited it recently on a dvd which I own.
This is the twenty-second in the Bond series, a direct sequel to Casino Royale, and the second film to star Daniel Craig as James Bond.
Like its predecessor, this one too doesn't rely on gadgets n cgi n has more chases n fast paced action but in trying to cash in on the success of Jason Bourne, Taken n other action movies, this one tried the fast cut editing which ruined the fun.
In quick cut editing one cannot make out who's who n what is going on.
In this film, Bond seeks revenge for the death of his lover, Vesper Lynd and is assisted by a Bolivian agent Camille Montes, who is coincidentally seeking to avenge the murder of her own family. The trail eventually leads them to Dominic Green, well connected with CIA and a businessman working in reforestation and charity funding for environmental science but helping an exiled General to get back into power, in return for support for his sinister plans along with CIA.
This time Bond faces Craig Mitchell, General Medrano, Dominic Greene n Colonel Carlos.
I miss those olden Bond villain's powerful henchmen.
This time the movie being fast paced n Bond on a vengeance, Bond gets to cool off with Gemma Arterton only.
The pioneer of the balcony/window jump is undisputedly Jackie Chan (Rumble in the Bronx).
Jason Bourne in Bourne Ultimatum copied almost the same jump.
Bond too copied almost the same jump in this movie.
