Quann-tum of Solace.. see what I did there?

Howdy all. It's been a while.


One word. Awesome.

Anyhoo...

On Wednesday, I saw with a group of mates, Quantum of Solace. The new James Bond film. And I was well... disappointed.

The film for me anyway, it was confusing.

***SPOILERS*** (Highlight to read)

Well, there is a unknown organization that I have no idea what they are trying to do.

Some guy called Greene who wants to build a pipeline down some desert somewhere but not for oil... guess what it's for...water. WTF? Oil is more valuable then water! Whats he going to do sell it in bottles? Wow.

Bond drives a hydrogen powered car. Please for the love of god, dont force feed Global Warming down my throat. It make me want to ignore it even more.

Oh and this organization doesn't get mentioned until after halfway through the flim. And never heard from again.


***END OF SPOILERS***

Well, after that rubbish. The pace of the film is way too fast. Things are happening for quickly you have know clue what the hell is going on.

The soundtrack if horrible. See what I mean...


And the classic 007 theme doesn't play until the end of the film... WHY?

Everytime Bond went to a different country this text appeared on screen that just got annoying by the end of the flim and looks like it was done on windows movie maker. Just put it at the bottom of the screen for christs sake.

However...The fight scenes are...AWESOME. And the visual effects are superb. But all I can think that is good.

I spoke to my mates after and they said it was "S***". I wouldn't go that far. It has it's moments.

So, basically, if you enjoy James Bond films. Don't watch this one. Casino Royale is 100% better then this.

I'll rate it - 2/5. It was a huge disappointment.

Thinking about it now, it's a follow up of Casino Royale. This is like what The Clone Wars (II) was to Star Wars. It was just there. Linking the rest of the franchise, like a chain. Meh.

So, until next time. Adios.
