So I have been very excited to see Quantum of Solace and was quite disappointed. As someone stated earlier,the action scenes were too fast and repetitive. I liked the beginning of CR much better. It started to get interesting when Bond was spying on the bad guys in the opera. But then it was lost again. Great actors and great acting, but the shot and plot was only ok. Still, I think Daniel Craig is for me after Sean Connery the best Bond.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-90768551824592954952008-11-19T22:55:00.000-08:002008-11-19T22:55:00.000-08:00bond girl was boooooooooooring. 7/10bond girl was boooooooooooring. 7/10the writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03877697410705451200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-25968161699015374382008-11-17T17:45:00.000-08:002008-11-17T17:45:00.000-08:00"Maybe it's a settup for a threequel, but I like C..."Maybe it's a settup for a threequel, but I like Casino Royale a lot more."<BR/><BR/>I didn't enjoy Casino Royale too much.

The a...Just saw it yesterday, and wasn't impressed. The action sequences were too quick-shot and just felt too unnecessary:<BR/><BR/>Car chase! On-foot chase! Boat chase! Plane chase! Explosions!!!<BR/><BR/>There were a few great moments, like Bond spying on those guys in the opera house, and Mathis' big finale, but overall I felt like this Bond lacked focus. Maybe it's a settup for a threequel, but I like Casino Royale a lot more.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692080707969333711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-10905037433717584422008-11-16T22:21:00.000-08:002008-11-16T22:21:00.000-08:00Quantum of Solace is out in North America! Go see...Quantum of Solace is out in North America! Go see it!<BR/><BR/>Raptor: Le Chiefre takes bad guy's money and invests it something to fail (in this case, the new airplane). Then he arranges a terrorist attack, destroying the plane and making him a LOT more money. But in Casino Royal, Bond stops the terrorist attack. Loosing Le Chiefre millions of the bad guy's money, who then wants to kill him. So Le Chiefre sets up a poker game to win back the bad guy's money.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, Vesper dated a guy (who was bad and worked for this mysterious Organization) who made her steal all the money from the poker game. Bond fell in love with her, and maybe she him. But she betrayed him and killed herself.<BR/><BR/>So Bond is angry and wants revenge on a) Vesper's boyfriend and b) the evil Organization. So he traced her cell phone to Mr. White, who he captured and begins to interrogate at the beginning of Quantum of Solace. Awesome.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Zach: The film is great, go see it. But what is this blasphemy about Connery? <BR/><BR/>Media Boy: There WAS a lot of collateral damage in the film, wasn't there? Who pays for that anyway?Peter Bondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06288204811639220214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-84939484193561841102008-11-15T11:27:00.000-08:002008-11-15T11:27:00.000-08:00it will be easy to make Quantum of Solace spoofs.....it will be easy to make Quantum of Solace spoofs... every where this Bond goes he breaks glass, he can't get a gallon of milk from the store without it turning into a chase scene, and every time he punches someone in the face, they dieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-72167776701330300262008-11-10T17:43:00.000-08:002008-11-10T17:43:00.000-08:00I'm really looking forward to Quantum. I was a HUG...I'm really looking forward to Quantum. I was a HUGE fan of Casino Royale, so I'm excited to see where it picks up. I think Daniel Craig is actually a BETTER Bond than Connery (shock and awe!) because of his demeanor and, honestly, the fact that Bond was never meant to be Scottish.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692080707969333711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-82541253319917009172008-11-09T07:29:00.000-08:002008-11-09T07:29:00.000-08:00Nice Review.

Can you shed some light on Casino Royale's plot?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
