It's akward watching the transformation and as was said before, by the end of the movie it's starting to feel like a bond movie. It just seemed like a waste of time to me.
By Bond feel or Bond flare you must mean "Pierce Brosnan feel" or "Pierce Brosnan flare" because this movie definitely had the right feel to it to me. Then again, I hated the Brosnan era other than Goldeneye...
The last few Bond flicks were all about the toys - storyline came dead last after cool overdone gadgets and big effects. Connery-era Bond was more like this one - storyline first, effects and gadgets second...
Give me the new Bond over the Brosnan Bond anyday of the week thank you.
