I liked the action without all of the insane gadgets. It really was much more like the earlier bond flicks, Dr. No and From Russia with love. No sharks with frick'n laser beams on thier heads.

I think they needed to spend a little less time on action and more time on tying the plot together. They could have dropped the action scene in the stairwell and it wouldn't have lost anything. Then used the time for plot development. Same with the defibulator scene.
With you on the stairway scene, but the poisoning sequence was amazing acting IMO. (Maybe not the defib thing specifically). This is definitely a guy who has done his share of Shakespeare, probably been poisoned once or twice before.

And Rick, it's really not a sequel or remake. The first CR was a non-authorised Bond spoof w/ Woody Allen, Peter Sellers and David Niven, this one does not have much in common w/ it.
