Default James Bond: Quantum of Solace- My Review

I loved this movie. It was not as good as Casino Royale, but there is a reason for that. It was a direct follow up. It is not a stand alone movie and if you don't rewatch Casino first you will be confused.

My only complaint is with the director and editors of the film. It plays like a slide show rather than a movie. None of the shots hold for more than a half a second. It gave me a headache. I am not exaggerating on this either. Sorry if I bring this to the attention of people who have not seen it yet.

I highly recommend this film.

4/5 Stars

Hmmm. Now I'm doubting that review I heard over the radio. He said people would enjoy the movie if they walked in expecting a lukewarm turd. Maybe we'll try to watch it next week.

I want to see it - haven't missed a Bond flick yet. I want to see the new Bond girl especially. I really enjoyed Casino Royale so I'm looking forward to this follow-up.

This also counts the the shortest Bond film ever as well. It's only 106 mintues, well shorter than the 2-hours-and-change running time of most of them in the past 13 years.

This is an unusual approach for a Bond flick, and perhaps not the best idea for such an iconic franchise.

I have free tickets to see it next week, so with any luck I can scare up a babysitter that night.

It is a good sequel of Casino Royale

If you have watched the Casino Royale then i m sure that you will like this one too

Although it is not as good as Casino Royale, but still it is worth watching.

I agree a but with my buddy Obiwan...

I felt like it was a slide show, too. I love quick cuts in action, and thought the Bourne series did it well, but this was difficult for me to follow the layout of the action.

Ultimately, this was a good wrap up to the story in the first, although the 'organization' is still just as vague as it was in the beginning of the first movie. C'mon...we all know its SPECTRE....let's just get on with it.

What seperates this film from other Bond flicks is it focus' too much on Bond's revenge. He's the off-the-map agent, and that's the kind of movie it is. CASINO ROYALE was just a pitch perfect Bond film, even though it sighed a bit much at the end. This series needs to get back on track in film three.

This doesn't mean its bad, I just think it misses few Bond notes.

Nice review bro

But this movie wasn't up to my expectations.
Casino Royale was much better.
