Objective Rating:
Fun, senseless action. The plot doesn't really work if you think about it for a second. The only thing that's resolved at the end is that the bad guy gets killed - which could have been accomplished just as easily at the start. But at least (unlike Casino Royale) it has the basic structure of a movie with a story. Now they just need to make one that has both (1) a beginning, middle and end, and (2) a plot that makes sense. Tricky stuff.
