Good entertainment

Rating: 6/10 (31 October 2008)

In short a decent Bond movie, great action throughout the film (and probably Bond's highest kill count ever) does however not compensate for the lack of intrigue and Bond-esquire humour. The Quantum of Solace theme song by Jack White and Alicia Keys was a bit of a disappointment for me personally and the movie soundtrack wasn't great either. A few more classic Bond-notes wouldn't have been OK in my book. The best part of the movie was the Opera scene with some cool actual spy-work by James accompagnied by massive Puccini music.
Craig's performance is solid and the edgy relationship between Bond and M (Judi Dench) is what gives the film some character. Camille and Ms Fields are stunning Bond women but little time is spent on building their characters and you end up not caring a lot about any of the new characters.
All-in-all. Great photo, massive action scenes, cool gadgets and Bond/M-dialogue makes it well worth a see.
