Thanks for posting this. I'm going to see the movie this week. Have a thing for action films. This review makes it seem more interesting then just straight mindless fare. I did stop reading past the first few paragraphs. Didn't want to spoil it too much. I'll have to come back to this after I see the film.

I find it ironic that Bond is a "leftist" or anti-imperialist only in his most brutal incarnation.

Well, it's a brutal world. Maybe the intensification of violence is part and parcel of a stronger connection to reality.

I find it intresting that most of the left wing statements in the film are made by the villain.
