Quantum of Solace

[ttestagr]

Okay people, who saw it? I went after work today, and the theatre was packed. The next two showings were sold out three days ago though.

I won't say much specific, but I enjoyed it. The action was good, and it kept going. The plot was a bit convoluted, though enjoyable. Craig was again extremely badass in ways Bond never has been before.

This poster will emasculate any badassness that the movie may have had. Instead, it will make you wonder what could have been.

In all seriousness, I may watch it when it comes out.

Watched it, liked it. Will go see the next one, as always.

Liked it, thought the story was solid, but had issues with the directing style. The director seemed to ape the Bourne series stylistically. I hate how some of the action is shot in the Bourne series (Super quick cuts muddling action scenes, shaky cam). This is a relatively minor quibble. Some good and unexpected scenes.

 

[Lord Raine]

Very nice. The action starts in the first three seconds, and doesn't stop until the movie ends. The plot was both coherent and open-ended (whoo super-secret global conspiracy organization), and had enough of a hanging open end for it to be brought up again in another movie later.

All in all, very solid. I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10. Definitely worth the watch.

[EDIT]

I disagree about the camera thing, seeing how I thought it added to the feel, nor did I think it was really aping Bourne (not once did I think to myself "wow, this is just like Bourne"). That's just my opinion though.

I heard that QOS is a continuation of the movie before it.

True?

 

[Lord Raa]

I heard that QOS is a continuation of the movie before it.

True?

Yes, it is set a few hours after Casino Royale.

True?

Yes, it is set a few hours after Casino Royale.

And it's apparently going to be followed up on as well, if the ending is anything to go by.

 

[Dryden]

Yes, the Bond films now have continuity. Terrifying, isn't it.

IMO, the story was a bit weak. I like the action scenes; great chase scenes, but I really got from this was that the director was setting up for the seque", milking it for all it's worth. I heard that Daniel Craig is signed in for the next two films...

 

[InfinityEngine]

I liked it.
