This is just stupid. I realize the necessity of a compelling protagonist with obstacles to overcome, a beginning, middle, and end, friends becoming enemies, enemies becoming friends, and a main character who is richer from the experience, but the poker game just doesn't cut it. |
I thought it worked just fine. What does Bond need to be? Cool, smart, lucky and always in control. What better way to exhibit that than to show him playing high stakes poker? I mean, it's not baccarat, but it's better than Bond taking on Maximilian Largo in a high stakes game of Berzerk.
