Review of Quantum of Solace (2008) by Sgt. C — 25 Jun 2014
(37%).
A Bond film without James Bond. Sure Daniel Craig is playing a character called 007, but the writers were too worried about stepping on any decades old cliches so they stripped the character bare leaving nothing besides a generic action hero in an expensive suit. It starts with the worst car chase in Bond history, it's a real mess, in-fact all the action is a bit of a stinker as it all feels so rushed. Why it is so choppy? Why can't the camera keep still? Is it supposed to be more exciting? And as everything is filmed the same exact way it all just morphs together, the car chase, the boat chase, the fights, nothing is memorable because it all feels like it is sprinting down the clock because it has nothing to say. Overall this is a flat, hugely forgettable time waster, and a true contender for the worst Bond flick ever because it breaks the mortal sin of not being fun in the slightest to watch.
