Disappointed

Rating: 4/10 (9 November 2008)

After the arrival of Daniel Craig as the new James Bond and the success of Casino Royale I was looking forward to the continuation of the series, but was (along with the group that went with me) very disappointed with this film.
With the introduction of the new Bond, the Bond franchise looked like it was back on track. Gone were the gadgets, glib one liners and weak story lines and introduced was a bond that felt pain and had real emotions.
So why don't I like QOS? Simply that the storyline was very weak - it appeared to be a lot of action scenes bound by a loosely and frankly weak plot line. The action scenes are good, the acting is good and once again Bond is played well. But where was the plot, drama and suspense?? After sitting down and watching a car chase, a few fights and some explosions, the credits started to roll and that was that... What the writers need to do is go back to the drawing board and concentrate less of the special effects and explosions and actually work in a cohesive storyline.
Many will like this film, I am just not one of them
