An average movie

I remember it quite well, I saw this movie with my wife in the theater when it was released. To be honest, even though I thought that 'Casino Royale' was a solid action movie and an interesting approach to tackle the mythical James Bond, I didn't think it was as mind-blowing as everyone else was thinking. Above all, I thought the story was seriously a mess. So, when I heard that Marc Forster would direct the next installment, I was genuinely intrigued. What would happen if you put a really good dramatic director in the directing seat of a James Bond flick? I'm afraid, nothing much... I mean, to be honest, I don't think it was much worse than 'Casino Royale' , its predecessor was just slightly better and, in my opinion, those two movies were about the same quality. Of course, Daniel Craig was still really impressive as James Bond, the action scenes were really entertaining but, again, I couldn't care less about the story. I mean, this movie was supposed to explain all the plotholes from the previous flick but I wasn't really convinced, that’s for sure. Anyway, we shouldn't take this too seriously. After all, it is a James Bond flick, no more and no less than that, I thought it was entertaining enough and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are a fan of the oldest movie franchise ever conceived.
