5/10. Mediocre Bond especially when compared to its predecessor (on which it heavily depends). Its makers seemed to think that they could make up for the total absence of coherent plotting by providing a set piece action scene or a killing every five minutes. Sadly action and violence, without a narrative to frame them, ultimately become both gratuitous and, worse, monotonous.

Well I haven’t seen it yet, but I have to disagree with the claim that “action and violence, without a narrative to frame them, ultimately become both gratuitous and, worse, monotonous”. I thought the latest Rambo and various Arnie films were great.
