The New Bond
Well, since me and de husband doh have no fete or anything to go to we normally go to the movies on Friday night. So last Friday we went to see the new James Bond. We totally forgot that it was opening night and we don't ever go to movies on opening night, but ah well we were already there.
Now, I am a Bond fan. Have seen them all from cool Roger Moore to sexy Sean Connery to irresistible Pierce Brosnan. I have seen Bond girls like Grace Jones (who was more of a bond villain), Jane Seymour, Michelle Yeoh and my ultimate Halle Berry. So I was skeptical of this new Bond especially as the critics were touting it as the best Bond ever! What! Better than Pierce and Halle in Die Another day!?? Better than Sean Connery in Dr. No?!
So we got to the movies and got our normal favorite seats (middle of the back row where you are dead center and have extra leg room) and sat through the movie that people were claiming to be the best bond ever.
Needless to say...no it was not. First of all, after the first scene which was very well done, full of excitement and primed you up for a good movie to come, I was falling asleep during the middle of the movie. The scene changes during the movie weren't good and I was just happy enough to stay awake to see the end of the movie which was also well done.
There were some parts in the middle worth mentioning. I mean, he is a good looking man this new bond and there are several shots of him in swimwear! And there is an especially interesting part when we is not at all clothed and being tortured severely sitting in a chair...now...depending on how you look at it...if you forget the fact that he is being tortured...it is actually quite sexy!
All in all great beginning, so-so middle, good end!

I was supposed to go tonight to see it actually, but postponed. I wasn't really that interested at first but I'm sure it'd be fine esp now you mention the swimwear shots lol.
