Product Description

Daniel Craig returns as James Bond in the 22nd instalment of the 007 franchise. After being betrayed by Vesper in Casino Royale, Bond (Craig) turns his sights on those who controlled her. Interrogating Mr White (Jesper Christensen), Bond discovers that the shadowy organisation responsible for blackmailing Vesper is a lot more powerful and dangerous than he ever imagined. Tracing a link to Hawaii, Bond soon crosses paths with Ukranian beauty Camille (Olga Kurylenko) who leads him to megalomaniacal businessman Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), head of the organisation known simply as Quantum. Wishing to control one of the world's natural resources, Greene's organisation has a finger in every government agency worldwide, and it falls to Bond to keep one step ahead of his friends, and enemies, to stop Greene holding the world to ransom.

From Amazon.co.uk

Daniel Craig hasn't lost a step since Casino Royale--this James Bond remains dangerous, a man who could earn that license to kill in brutal hand-to-hand combat… but still look sharp in a tailored suit. And Quantum of Solance itself carries on from the previous film like no other 007 movie, with Bond nursing his anger from the Casino Royale storyline and vowing blood revenge on those responsible. For the new plot, we have villain Mathieu Amalric (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly), intent on controlling the water rights in impoverished Third World nations and happy to overthrow a dictator or two to get his way. Olga Kurylenko is very much in the "Bond girl" tradition, but in the Ursula Andress way, not the Denise Richards way. And Judi Dench, Jeffrey Wright, and Giancarlo Giannini are welcome holdovers. If director Marc Forster and the longtime Bond production team seem a little too eager to embrace the continuity-shredding style of the Bourne pictures (especially in a nearly incomprehensible opening car chase), they nevertheless quiet down and get into a dark, concentrated groove soon enough. And the theme song, "Another Way to Die," penned by Jack White and performed by him and Alicia Keys, is actually good (at times Keys seems to be channeling Shirley Bassey--nice). Of course it all comes down to Craig. And he kills. --Robert Horton, Amazon.com --This text refers to the DVD edition.

I'll admit that I went into Quantum of Solace more or less dreading a repeat of the Licence To Kill debacle. All the danger signs were there - a rushed script because of a writers' strike, threats of Bond going rogue again plus the problem that great Bond films are usually followed by naff ones. The short running time wasn't encouraging, nor the bigger budget and promise of more action.

Well, this isn't one of the great Bond films, and Casino Royale set the bar far too high for it to compete. But it's certainly not a disappointment if you go in aware of that, and more gratifyingly, the similarities to Licence To Kill are superficial. Where Casino Royale was like making love all night long, this is more of a gratifyingly frenzied *beep* of a film. The running time isn't a problem because, like From Russia With Love, this is a pared down machine with no fat to trim away, throwing out all the overused touchstones to get down to business. From a plot point of view there's maybe a little too much one corpse leading to the next plot point in the first third, but the film wisely ditches that approach early.

Dan Bradley's action scenes are thankfully not as ineptly over-edited and incoherent as in Paul Greengrass' films, but aren't as impressive as Gary Powell's work on Casino Royale. There are moments of familiarity - a motorbike sequence borrows from the unimpressively shot harbour scene in Jackie Chan's The Protector, but without the lethargic pacing, while an aeriel dogfight owes a lot to a famously rejected stunt originally intended for the opening of GoldenEye - and the opening car chase through heavy traffic could have benefited from not trying quite so hard.

Quantum of Solace - Non Spoiler Review:

In my honest-to-heart opinion - this is probably the second best bond (best being casino royale). If you haven't seen Casino Royale, then Quantum of Solace will make no sense whatsoever - so don't see Quantum before you see that movie. Back to Quantum - there's everything you want from:
a) a bond film
b) any great film
The movie opens with a thrilling car chase, taking place approximately 30 minutes after Casino Royale, where Bond has Whyte in his car. We then get a fantastic chase, from rooftop to rooftop, with astounding stunts, fantastic, realistic action, (Yup, we're past Die Another Day) and another great David Arnold score.
I really haven't a clue why so many hate on Quantum, it's a fast-paced, well directed Bond film. As aforementioned, this really is a sequel to CR, and a lot of it's main events come of the back of that. Quantum is also a movie about revenge, but for the most part, Bond tries to convince himself that he's not motivated by it, as M (who has some great dialogue) suspects. The ending of the movie is really powerful - more subtle than Casino Royale's, and just as heart-breaking, as we learn that Bond has moved on from the past.

Bottom line - Fantastic Movie - check it out (but watch CR first, for sure) - it's a kick-ass action film, with great performances.

It seemed like a good idea at the time, no doubt...

Even now, it still sounds so promising: break James Bond's heart, and let him loose in a world full of opportunities to unleash his hurt and fury. That, in a nutshell, is the premise of Quantum of Solace. It picks up directly where Casino Royale left off - Bond has caught an enemy and wants to interrogate him - and the stage is set for a film exploring the bumps and bruises in the Bond psyche.

To an extent, one can see what director Marc Forster was trying to do. This is a smash-and-grab Bond film, shorter, punchier and perhaps even more brutal in places than Casino Royale; but for all that, a good story gets lost in the action, and one is left feeling that, in fact, it's hardly a Bond film at all. The theme tune is absolutely awful, the plot is plain and dull, and Craig, for all the undoubted quality and intensity he brings as the best actor ever to play the role, is left with very little to sink his teeth into. Fans accepted the premise of Casino Royale, and that Bond was being stripped of his gadgets, girls and martinis for good reason; but for all that, CR still felt every inch a Bond film: the fun, the swagger, the colour, the charm was all there.

It's not here. Bond punches villains, flies planes, rides bikes, drives cars and paws the dust in anger and irritation - but he does little else. Craig absolutely carries the film - with some assistance from the always unflappable Dame Judi Dench - but even his skill at playing the role can't fully redeem this disappointing appendix to Casino Royale. To make matters worse, Mathieu Amalric's villain is nothing more than an irritation, a brat; even the name, Dominic Greene, does little more than provoke that sinking feeling of a slimy estate agent coming to the door.

Let's be honest, everyone has an opinion on what a Bond film should be like. In terms of 'I would have done it this way' or 'they shouldn't have done it like that' a Bond film ranks up there with how the country should be run or the management of the national football team where everyone is an expert. Too much sex, not enough glamour, ridiculous gadgets, not enough gadgets, the stunts are too far fetched, it's too realistic....and so on; whatever combination the producers put in their films they'd be criticised for any of the above.

Quantum of Solace is no different, whilst still hugely successful Marc Forster's film has split audiences and critics alike. The storyline sees Bond pursuing the organisation he holds responsible for the death of his love Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale. It turns out that this organisation, Quantum, is unknown to MI6 yet is highly powerful and internationally connected and Bond stumbles on its plot to control Bolivia's water supply. Like M, we are never quite sure if Bond is on the mission or pursuing his personal agenda, as he gives little away whilst displaying his resourcefulness in following various leads around the world.

Quantum of Solace starts half an hour after Casino Royale and immediately you are into the film. An exhilarating car chase by Lake Garda is followed by an innovative title sequence and then we have a bit of exposition from M before another chase ensues, this time by foot and before you notice twenty minutes have passed and you haven't breathed. The plot proceeds more like a sequence of events as opposed to a structured build-up as Bond, hopping countries, goes from one chase (land, sea and air) or fight to the next, with just enough dialogue in between to balance the tempo.
