We learn how the "Connery Bond" became such a hardened, but glib, badass who can crack a joke after tossing some goon overboard with a bomb tied between his legs or not get bent out of shape because last night's girlfriend is floating face down in the swimming pool. The Craig series has done nothing short of restore my faith and enthusiasm in the Bond movies. If you want to put things in perspective, watch the last Brosnan movie where he kite surfs the Tsunami. Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Well said, this is exactly what the movie was supposed to be.
