The Bottom Line:    James Bond returns in his best outing in over a decade, if not ever. After a string of films that were nothing more than empty spectacles, Bond is ‘Batman Begins-ized’ and given a swift kick in the balls. And who doesn’t like seeing a man get hit in the balls? Daniel Craig dazzles as the Martini drinking MI6 agent, and a real world plot, witty self parodying dialogue and an open ended ending makes you want to see Bond’s next great adventure right now!
 
 
    Bond turns 21. Crack open a bottle, order a hooker and get celebrating! After a brief hiatus, Bond, and SNMR, are back in action and back to the basics. There’s no crazy editing, no racial slurs, no lengthy adventure! It’s just a ton of what you love: Matt ranting! And Steve’s hairy chest. Seriously, you can skin that thing and turn it into a carpet. Yet, it’s strangely hypnotizing, isn’t it? It calls out to you. It longs for your touch. “Touch me” the chest hair calls…and you will answer.
