Not being a James Bond fan, I felt that the film served its purpose well enough as an action movie. Much has been said about the poor editing of the fight scenes and the lack of a menacing villain. Those things bother me more than complaints such as the lack of 'gee-whizmos' and silly comedic relief guest stars. I am not a fan of the gimmicky Bond material and appreciate Craig's presence and the severe gut-level ferocity he displays. Bond fans will be let down but fans of Indiana Jones may have more fun with the proceedings.

I think the film was a notch down from the previous installment but still better than anything that preceeded the Daniel Craig films, post 1960's. The long-drawn action oriented first half was indeed dirivative of the recent (and excellent) Jason Bourne films, but the Bond character once again was closer to the Flemming created Bond from the page than any other era of the films. I'm hanging in for the continuation of a decent series of espionage based films over the goofy second rate Hong Kong action films that the series had become.

Discusting bad, Its not even a james bond. There's nothing james bond like in this movie, the only thing that is in there is M and a guy that is somehow called james bond for no reason at all.

Great movie. What I really like about this movie is that it focuses on Bond without all the gizmos. It actually has a plot that could be in a sense; real. Daniel Craig is a really good actor and also knows how to deliver his lines. I look forward to many more of his Bond movies. Also I have always been a fan of Judi Dench. Her character as M is just made for her. If you dont know Judi from other British shows she is a comedian and this role must be a challenge but she is very good at it. This is a movie worth seeing.

great movie

as good as any of the best and much better than most of the worst

Not the best story, very gritty but very good action.

Let me start by saying I like Daniel Craig as Bond.

Let me finish by saying that this may be the worst Bond film ever made, including the original comedic version of Casino Royale. The action sequences are so disjointed and incomprehensible they look like they were edited by a crystal meth addict who had downed three gallons of espresso, there is no discernable plot, and the characters are so thin and pointless they don`t even qualify as narrative devices.

A couple hours of my life I wish I had back.

OK... Here's the weird thing. I like the new "James Bond" actor but I really don't have much good to say about this film. I mean if it was just meant to be another action film it would have been fine - but it's not meant to be another action film. It's suppose to be James Bond. Where was James Bond in all of this? No gadgets... No great comebacks... No real freaky villan... No women... (I'm not even sure why they bothered putting the lead woman in this role). Anyway... not a bad action movie but a lousy Bond film overall.

James Bond??? This is more a bad version of Die Hard. I really think Craig is an good actor, no doubt. BUT Quantum of Solace is NOT a Bond movie.

No good one liners, no plot/story, no gentleman touch, no smart dialogs, no gadgets. And why is not Q/R in the movie?! Will somebody please get John Cleese back a.s.a.p! (And later perhaps introduce Eddie Izzard as his disciple/successor?).

This movie is just plain bad, action scenes way to jumbled. Terrible writing!

Easily, the worst Bond ever made. The formula for a Bond movie MUST contain A. Gorgeous women. B. Great cars. C. Slick devices. D. A plot E. Sex F. Danzi boats G. Tongue-in-cheek innuendos. H. Exotic locations. I. A real villain. J. Action...which brings us to the last factor (at least the last one I'm gonna waste ink on)...

K. Slick editing. There was action...lots of it...but it was all so horribly and incomprehensibly edited that you couldn't tell what the hell was going on. It would be more plausible to listen to Corrado Soprano, in a wheelchair, muttering that he is still The Boss of the family, than to believe that this is a Bond, James Bond film. Awful! Unbelievably awful!

PS: I like Daniel Craig. He's the working man's Bond...rugged and physical. The paradyne shift from the nearly-royal, blue blood kind of Bond that we have been used to was enough of a shift, but this movie goes too far...pushing the entire franchise off the cliff. Ah, what the hell...you Bonds fans will go to see it, anyways. The truth is that you have no choice. You HAVE to go see it. I understand. I just hope that YOU get laid afterwards...

the film was ok i did get a bit bored thro the film i did not think wat i thought it was if u now wat i mean but the film is ok
