January 10, 2010It's even better than Casino Royale and even has a groove just like the old-school Bond films. A smart, stylish, intense and hard-boiled action-thriller. Jammed with even more heart-pounding action sequences, incredible stunts, great special effects and nail-biting suspense. An a...( read more)

October 2, 2009It?s not the worst ever Bond Film. That's mainly because its barely a Bond film and Die another day was awful. Everyone seems to have liked Casino Royale apart from me but I think people are starting to realise that this franchise has taken a turn for the worst as Quantum of Sola...( read more)

September 30, 2009I'll stick to "Casino Royale" if I want to watch a "Daniel Craig" Bond movie...Absolutely disappointing compared to the first go-round. Too bad, considering the trailer was awesome!

August 29, 2009A very good action film continuing right on from Casino Royale. Plenty of action, chases and explosions. Has a certain Bourne Trilogy feel to a lot of the stunts and fights. The Bond films now are more gritty, raw without the tongue in cheek humour of the past films. One for all ...( read more)

February 7, 2010The movie and the storyline were great. The director was not. What would have been a fantastic follow up to one of the best bond movies in years fell short of its mark, all because of erratic camera movements and focusing too much on the location shoots. I must admit, the scenery...( read more)

February 4, 2010A good sequel to an important Bond installment lacks the originality of its predecessor but is still amongst the better Bonds. Full of action, beautiful cinematography and scenery, and convincing villains

Quantum of Solace prompts the question: Is revenge the only possible motive for large-scale movie heroism these days? full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Quantum of Solace is best when director Marc Forster allows his star the latitude to explore emotions that, until Craig stepped into the shoes of the character, we didn't know Bond had. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
If you held up your thumb over Daniel Craig's face and took in the mayhem around him, you'd think you were watching The Bourne Simulation rather than the 22nd (and shortest-ever) ode to Ian Fleming's ... full review

I repeat: James Bond is not an action hero! Leave the action to your Jason Bournes. This is a swampy old world. The deeper we sink in, the more we need James Bond to stand above it. full review

Armond White, The New York Press
Quantum offers the in-process restructuring of a pop myth. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Quantum of Solace won't trust its own darker instincts. It delivers the popcorn goods, but it ignores the poison eating at Bond's insides. Killer mistake. full review
November 10, 2008
Anthony Lane, The New Yorker
Quantum of Solace is too savage for family entertainment, but, as a study in headlong desperation, it's easier to believe in than many more ponderous films. full review

David Edelstein, New York Magazine
If the staging were as witty as the plotting, Quantum of Solace might have been a corker like Casino Royale. full review
October 30, 2008
Nigel Andrews, The Financial Times
Perhaps this is a tactically ruthless and designedly impersonal Bond movie, a clever tease getting us ready for the returning solvents - next time round - of charm, humour and eccentricity. full review

January 25, 2010god what a bunch of big babies.stop bashing Daniel Craig.he s a great James Bond and why he should be like Pierce Brosnan?at least Craig makes Bond makes his own character instead of ripping off the other actors.Craig is the man and an excellent James Bond.Bring it Bond 23.

January 19, 2009Worst ever Bond film. Action scenes were stilted, too fast, couldn't see what was going on flicking from scene to scene. Rubbish villian stealing water! Good aeroplane sequence but the rest was tosh. Casino Royale was superb, i almost walked out of this one. Dud.

December 29, 2008Daniel Craig did a killer job as the new Bond!! I perfered this one over the first one. You never know what's going to happen to Bond. But, no matter what kind of situation Bond get's into, he's alwasys able to get himself out of!! It might seem as Bond is at the end but, he always turns the tables on the "bad guy". So, to conclud my output on Bond,
HE KICKS SERIOUS BOOTY!! -

November 24, 2008I'll say the same thing I just said in my review>>
This is the worst James Bond movies EVER!!!
It would be a bad movie if it wasn't a Bond movie.
It had alot of action and I still actually fell asleep a couple times.
I woke up the last time finding out the plot of this wretched movie.
A secret society that MI6 knows nothing about buys in a Dictator in south America and aquires land to take control of the water supply so they can then charge double as south America's only utilitys provider!!!
I would have Given this Movie a half star but the action was good but the Plot was so bad I couldn't rate it any higher then 1 star.
Don't get me wrong, I like Bond movies but this is pathetic. -
