what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

To understand this film, think of it as a trigger-happy Bourne film. And I mean that in one of the worst ways possible. The editing is atrocious. The film takes a Matrix Reloaded approach and stacks action on action; however, it's not even as successful as that film. The opening action sequence has one decent moment, but anyone able to follow the rapid edits deserves an award. What such rapid editing tends to correlate with is weak content to begin with. Some well thought out long shots could've worked effectively, but the truth is that there just isn't anything special about the action set-pieces besides perhaps locale. And don't even mention the parachute opening 10 feet above the ground. You can't walk away from that without an injury.Although I can appreciate some of what Jack White accomplished with "Another Way to Die," Alicia Keys only takes away from the song-- making it and the corresponding animation the worst theme as well. The Bond Girls are the worst as well. Let's see, what other worsts does it have... Oh yeah! The villain is so uninteresting. And it's so obvious during the climax that there's no way he could even put up a fight against Bond.Despite going for the darker, remorseless tone, I actually felt that Daniel Craig brought some of his greatest charm in this film. Even though there really isn't any cool dialogue to accompany him, I feel that after already having one round as the famous Brit, Craig was tailored in his approach to the character, and it's one of the aspects that pays off for the film.But enough praise. The film has annoying characters, and even when trying to fit elements from the previous film, the plot is so basic and not memorable in any way. But when you have an action flick, almost all can be forgiven with quality action. And the film just falls flat. Not only is this the worst Craig Bond film, it just isn't a quality picture. It's a misstep, and that probably contributed to the gap between this film and the next one. You can find this review and dozens of others at gillipediamoviereviews.blogspot.com

This movie is,well disappointing compared to Casino Royale,not as bad as many people say.First,the good,the score and cinematography are still great.The locations are good,and look beautiful.The Bond girl is awesome,it is cool that she doesn't actually fall in love with Bond(given the events of the last film)and her backstory was interesting,I liked how it connected her to the villain.The pacing was decent as well.The biggest pro,the action,while the editing does get bad at times,I personally think that the fast paced editing makes the action more exciting.Now,the cons,while I did like the action in the film,the CGI for the film was awful.The fact that this is a direct sequel,I liked in other films(such as the original Halloween II),here it seems pointless,as no characters have changed since the last movie.Sadly,James Bond himself is one of the problems,he just feels emotionless,all of his charm is lost,he just stands there and kills everyone in his way.The villain,he is barely in it,and while his plan is unique,he is in no way memorable or intimidating.The biggest con,the tone,it feels like a generic action movie,and a Bourne ripoff,so every time humor is attempted,it feels forced,and the movie just seems emotionless.Quantum of Solace is not as bad as you would think based on the reviews as it has a great Bond girl and action scenes,but it has a bad villain,soulless feel,and a bad portrayal of the James Bond character.

Directed by Marc Forster and produced by Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, it has script by Robert Wade, Neal Purvis and Paul Haggis. This is the twenty-second movie of the franchise and is the second film in the new era of James Bond, embodied by the participation of Daniel Craig as 007. It inherits the central cast from the previous film, to which joins Olga Kurylenko, in the role of bond-girl Camille, Gemma Arterton, in the role of Strawberry Fields, Mathieu Amalric in the role of villain, Dominic Greene, and Joaquín Cosio in the role of General Medrano.In this film, James Bond seeks revenge for the death of Vesper, killed by Quantum, a mysterious criminal organization that seeks to manipulate governments and control natural resources. In the process, however, he will have to act on his own, even going against MI6's orders to destroy this criminal syndicate.This is one of the Bond movies I understand worse due to its complexity. It's so complicated and intricate that it becomes incomprehensible. But it's also true that, after the success of "Casino Royale" (which this film follows up), it would be difficult to obtain similar results. Despite the incomprehensibility, i enjoy the way that it approaches the value of water and ecological issues and concerns. Daniel Craig continues to play his role brilliantly, giving realism and credibility to the British agent. The interpretations of Mathieu Amalric and Joaquín Cosio also deserve congratulations, especially the latter one, which could become truly repellent with his sexist behavior and total disregard for women. However, Olga Kurylenko didn't satisfy me: her interpretation is very positive but her character is too ambiguous: she was a great help to Bond, she touched the audience with her story, but she isn't attractive enough to be a bond-girl. The opening sequence didn't surprised, despite Alicia Keys collaboration on the song "Another Way to Die"
