Quantum of Solace

[wawh]

the action isnt bad... which you are saying is good

the story just sucks badly... a 10 year old can make a better james bond story

i dont fucking get why they took 2 minutes to explain the exact mixture of bond&#39;s drink when they coulda just fucking said "vodka martini shaken not stirred" THATS IT! 5 seconds vs 2 minutes of some idiot bartender talking....i bet the bartender was the directers son or some shit <_<

I thought the same thing, but then I remembered reading about how he changed his watch from a Rolex! Remember he had that bad ass Rolex, then all of a sudden he was wearing a Timex??? I was like, wtf? So I googled it and read somewhere that Timex pays for the product placement! I knew they did this with drinks like Pepsi and cars like Caddy and Mercedes but fuck I had no idea with booze lol...so I think that&#39;s why they take a time out there for a commercial lol! gay.

cons
1. someone already said, no bond, james bond
2. hate the blue eyes at certain points
3. no Q gadgets -_-
4. hes in the aston for the first 5 minutes and its just driving, no rockets or anything
5. story is kinda weird
6. again, someone said it doens&#39;t have the james bond feel to it

pros
1. bond girl wasnt&#39; as bad as i thought she&#39;d be
2. lots of action, never really a bad thng


i thought casino royale was decent, now seeing this movie, i see how different daniel craig is from the other james bonds

wrting thispost for some reason makes me want to watch that 1 james bond move with pierce and halley barry where they&#39;re in that ice hotel

Seriously though, anyone who thinks this film is a good bond film is crazy.

I can think of so many faults with this movie. Not to mention the story line was absolutly shocking.

And this was worse then Die Another Day. Atleast Die another Day had a decentish storyline, all be it a bit unrealistic. I actually enjoyed DAD, but QOS, i actually hated it.

Once again I am at odds with you lol. This QoS blew the crap out of Die. I thought Die was soo freaken cheesy and had way too much CGI. I also didn&#39;t like Jinx or any of the "bad guys." I think these quotes sum up my feelings and many others:

James Berardinelli of Reelviews.net said, " This is a train wreck of an action film — a stupefying attempt by the filmmakers to force-feed James Bond into the mindless XXX mold and throw 40 years of cinematic history down the toilet in favor of bright flashes and loud bangs."[31] Gary Brown of the Houston Community Newspapers also described the weak point of the film as "the seemingly non-stop action sequences and loud explosions that appear to take center stage while the Bond character is almost relegated to second string."[32] Roger Moore remarked, " I thought it just went too far — and that’s from me, the first Bond in space! Invisible cars and dodgy CGI footage? Please!"[33]

And QoS story line is timely reflecting current news, manipulation and corruption. I like the grit and "plain" aspect of the new Bond although I would like to see more of the gadgets.

The movie was good, not as bad as some people here claim it is.

[*RW*]

The movie had nothing to do with James bond style movies... was just pure action. And not even a Martini.

4/10 from my side.

Moderate action movie, pretty bad bond movie.

But die another day was still much worse. An invisible car? Honestly, thats grounds for castration whoever wrote it into the script.

007? Didnt seem so. Expected a 007 movie, got a mid-class shooter instead.
