Quantum of Solace Review

This movie came out months ago, but I'm cheap and waited for the video release. Anywhoo, teh latest installment in the Bond series brings us a much darker and serious story. Quick overview of the movie ~SPOILAHZ~ (omg no wai!): Picks up right where it left off, Bond has captured Mr. White and is taking him in for questioning. One high speed car chase later, we're in Siena Italy. M interrogates White, M's bodyguard turnscoat and runs. Bond gives chase. He kills the dude. Then theres a motorcycle chase, followed by a boat chase, followed by a plane chase followed by a footchase..

The whole story moves so fast, it just becomes a blur, and all we're left with is teh action scenes. Which are good, don't get me wrong, but they're just.. Ugh.. They relied too much on special effects, is what I'm sayin'. Not a very good story, just some nerd who runs this company that steals water from poor nations.

Craig was okay, not my favorite Bond, but okay. I kinda liked Bond's character in this one. He was more angry and crazy. He was like "Rogue Bond". >=D Though sometimes it got a little too serious. 'Specially for a Bond film.

All in all, I give 'dis film a er uhh... 2/10. And the reason it received such a low score is because he never said "Bond. James Bond."

...No seriously, I give it a 7/10. A goo' effort.
