LOL, I thought the same first time I saw him: quite slavic physical traits there. I forgot all about it when he took his shirt off! Whoa, Nellie!
I get the impression that his head's too small for his body.
I'll never forget a thread I was on and the Polish girl was the prettiest of them all but the guys saw a tad of ‘belly’ and jumped on it big time.
Not literally, of course.......snort.
He keeps his shirt on in this one but he wears a lot of tight white pants. I rather liked him until all the Freeper ladies said he reminded them of Putin and that killed off his attraction for me! :(
Liked the movie, loved the two lines in Swiss in there (sure I was the only person in my theater to understand them), loved Judi Dench, and now I shall have to see the first one in this line (Casino Royale). Never saw that one.
The chase scene at the beginning was sadly not up to the marvelous standards of a Bond film: it was not even by the wildest stretch possible to get past the barely two-lane mountain highway with nearly stopped traffic in each direction, but Bond and his pursuers were racing around cars at top speed. Creative film editing, but I prefer creative chase stunts.
Bond only sleeps with one woman in this one, and not the one he probably wanted.
Vlad should be so lucky. (But you are right, there is some resemblance -- maybe he's the lesser-hot brother...)
