I expect more from Bond, so thumbs down.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

That this Bond will be smarter is clear from its title sequence, which leaves you both shaken and stirred.
David Edelstein, Slate
Rotten
The film is so fraught with explosions and chases that the action eventually feels numbing.
Claudia Puig, USA Today

A bit like watching a champion fighter win a title bout on points rather than a satisfying knockout.
