I have a problem with the way in which Bond machine-guns so many Russian troops here. This isn't even Soviet Russia anymore. And this isn't even a chemical warfare complex. It's the ministry's archive building. These troops just happen to be working here on detachment. Yet oddly, after all this carnage, when we get outside during the ensuing chaotic tank chase, there'll be no more fatalities among the pursuing troops and police... despite all the vehicle destruction.
Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.
Can I be controversial? I like Serra's piece for the tank chase, from the OSA ('A Pleasant Drive In St Petersburg'), far better than this drafted-in replacement score with its more traditional rendition of Bond theme elements.

They’re all trying to shoot him? What’s he going to do, ask them nicely to stop so they can talk it out?

I prefer the replacement for exactly those reasons.

I respectfully disagree on this one :-) Serra's piece should have stayed.

Yes, a quick touch of actual Fleming.
Parents killed in a climbing accent... reconnects him with Fleming... and anticipates Craig in SF.

The actor has a strong regional accent... so the 'posh' English is put on, and Bean over-compensates
Yes. An MB1.
Absolutely!
He has only one flaw, and I hate to say this.
But he runs like a girl!

Be as disrespectful as you like!
Especially with all the care they put into not killing anyone in the embassy fight in CR, tis one looks bloodthirsty. A cold war carryover?
