And Bond managed to recover only using cyclic - if the woman in charge flys helicopters it wouldn't have been too difficult to show him flying it properly would it?

Apart from that it is very worthy of the 007 genre, it has just moved into the 21st century with some slightly arty (some would say irritating) camera work. Excellent swordfight by the way, Errol Flynn eat your heart out.

The only crap bit was the kite surfing off the glacier tidal wave - a little bit more thought could have produced a less far-fetched escape for Bond.

Halle Berry looks fabulous but if you want to see more then rent Monsters Ball (the one she got an Oscar for) - the acting is not Oscar worthy IMHO but the sight of her with her kit off wins a prize in my book!!!
