I was sorely disappointed with the movie too. It feels as if the people involved sat down with a bulleted list of stuff that should happen in the movie (expensive car chase opening, one Bond girl shall die, a secret organization for Bond to fight against, a few people Bond can kill) and then threw a weak plot around it. Casino Royale was so much better! ~ash
