The music isn't memorable? lol. It's only one of the best movie songs ever written to say nothing of a great Bond song. The opening teaser is also phenomenal. The movie re-launched the Bond series after the disappointment of Man with the Golden Gun (regarded as one of the worst of the franchise) in a big, huge way and was a mammoth success with fans and critics alike.
It's amusing reading through comments from people who have never seen these films before. Seems like everyone thinks what's current today won't be dated in the same way 30 years from now as the 70s Bond movies supposedly are in their view. Trust me, they will be. Much in the same way some of you dislike the humor in a typical Moore outing, people 20 or 30 years from now will find the cold, humorless Craig movies to be a product of THIS era also -- in a totally opposite direction. Kind of like most of the super-hero films today that all take themselves far more seriously than years ago also.
Eventually, the pendulum will swing back when people, in general, stop taking themselves as seriously as they do in this generation.
