I saw it last weekend, and I really enjoyed it by the end but I found the plot and the 'secrets' more conventional than I was hoping for. Mendes has already commented on how Nolan (obviously as is standard issue these days) influenced some of their approach but I'm not sure a dash of copying works as that's what it feels like a bit more.
But I liked it, it's the best of the Craig Bonds for me and I absolutely loved the final third of the film thanks to Roger Deakins photography in the settings there. I wasn't big on Bardem, I gotta say but Judi Dench really got more to do here than she ever has before and did great. Good chemistry with Craig along the way.
