Don't listen to the negative reviews

Admirable film.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

There was absolutely no way that A Quantum Of Solace was going to top Casino Royale two years earlier, but even with that in mind, it was a little bit disappointing. In many ways people hoped to get some background information about Vesper Lynd, a more professional James Bond (since CR showcased Bond becoming Bond) and a complex storyline to match Casino Royale's greatness. What we got instead was a total letdown of main characters, both bond girls being bland and boring, the villain (Greene) being one of the worst in the series and a Jack Reacher James Bond. Some stunt scenes (especially the opening in the church) are dramatic and very well executed and there is still some James Bond vibe to it, but all in all QoS is one of the weakest Bond Entry's and that sadly after the best of them all. 5/10

I only give it a 4 because of the nice scenes. The movie reminds me of Blair Witch Project, which I could not watch for more than 3 minutes. Every time there is a flight or fight scene, the camera moves up and down, right and left, wobbles, spins, and more, that the viewer feels like there is an actual earthquake, tornado, and cyclone happening at the same time. The other major problem with the movie is in seeing the bruises on the actors that would normally have a person cringe in pain. Instead, the bruised actors show no signs of injury. The last problem is that this feels like the 50th 007 film. Enough, already. Has Hollywood never heard of sequel fatigue?

I can't remember Quantum of Solace; it's quite easily the most forgettable Bond movie in my opinion. There's not a moment that sticks out in your memory besides perhaps the opening car- chase. I can't remember the villain, I can't remember the Bond-girl, and I can't even remember what the basic plot of the movie was. In Skyfall you could recount that it was a movie that explored James' past as well as M's; and that MI6 had a lot to hide. Casino Royale: Bond has to go head-to- head with Le Chiffre in gambling and cease his funding to terrorist organisations. Quantum of Solace: something something baddies in desert?There's flashy action sequences but the story is totally unremarkable and Daniel Craig is the only consistently uplifting factor in this movie. But even he is bogged down by the movie's sheer ineptitude to tell a memorable story at all.Quantum of Solace: the day James Bond made me go to sleep.

James Bond (Daniel Craig) chases the CEO of a dubious company, Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric) who talks a lot about ecology and gives to charity, but has all kinds of dirty business going on. In Bolivia, he supports a general to become president in exchange for control over the country's water supply. The same general killed the family of Camille (Olga Kurylenko) years ago, and when Bond teams up with Camille because there isn't anyone else – M and the British secret service stop their support, while the Americans even are on his enemy's side – his job becomes entwined with her personal revenge. Whether Bond is also motivated by personal motives, dating back to the predecessor 'Casino Royale', remains unclear, at least he denies it when M asks him.In my view, 'Quantum of Solace' is one of the poorest contributions to the series. The action of the movie is uninspired: a car chase, a boat chase, then a plane is shot down, and if you finally compare the boxy desert hotel to the amazing ice hotel in 'Die Another Day', you wonder where all the money went. The cast is not convincing, either: Mathieu Amalric is an easily forgettable villain, just a business guy in a white shirt, while Ukrainian Olga Kurylenko plays the Bolivian girl as if she was preparing for the role by staying a week on the sun bed and then put a silly wig on. It remains a mystery why the casting director didn't attempt to find a talented Latin American actress for the part? To add insult to injury, we get Beam, a CIA agent with a fake mustache who looks like a cartoon character (but is intended to be dead serious). Every scene he is in made me cringe in my seat. The title song is one of the rare cases that a Bond main theme is not memorable. Despite this long list of disappointments, the movie isn't entirely bad. 'Quantum of Solace' is well edited and photographed, deliberately less glossy than others of the series. The grainy look fits the desert location, for example. And Craig plays a good Bond, silent, tough and mean, with less lines than ever before which is an advantage.
