I enjoyed the movie (The Good Shepherd) last night, though Angelina Jolie did nothing for me. She isn't that great an actress and in a 'normal' role (not as a sexy Lara Croft-type), she is unappealing. Matt Damon was good, but his character was a total ass. Total Ivy League-Frat Boy-knows better than the rest of us-type.
I was engrossed by the story, but I didn't really like most of the characters, so that was less than satisfying.
Tonight, we're off to see the new James Bond...yay...
I'd been wondering if that was any good. Thank you for the review. I'm not really interested in the story, so if the characters aren't appealing, it's likely a pass for me.

Thanks for the review - if the characters aren't that likeable and there's no awesome cinematography/special effects, I think I'll just wait to rent it later, then. I bet Bond will be fun on the big screen though. Enjoy!

The new James Bond actually looks good--and I am not a fan. This Craig guy has some definite charisma.
