  Poor Bond movie, terrible action scenes, dull characters, messy plotting, uninspired cinematography. Huge comedown from Casino Royale

  This is the Bond of the Fleming books. Brutally efficient.

  Closure to "Casino Royale" or not, this movie is just an all around poor effort. Why must all our action heroes suddenly have feelings? A darker James Bond just doesn't work. He's too busy schtumping Pussy Galore to get caught up in emotions!

  This film has some very good action scenes. The story line is tricky and once I figured it out I liked it even more. I don't understand why so many people didn't like this film. Craig is a great Bond and I hope he keeps the franchise going.

  Lots of chases and lots of fights. Inelegantly complex and confusing plot. Even the stunts are difficult to follow. Dull dialog (at times unintelligible, but perhaps due to the quality of the sound system at the theater).

  Really more like "Bourne Lite." Entertaining enough. The "Tosca" production will offend all opera-lovers in the audience.

  Very difficult to follow. Too many characters. Acting was good. Not a typical James Bond movie. Maybe the worst of all.

  Old-School at its very best! This series can only get better. Craig has nailed Bond! Looking forward to the next one.

  This wasn't the Bond of old. Usually fond of the bond. Gadgets, girls, secret villas, housing diabolical villains. Nadda to all. World dominant plan? Hide water in a hole and sell it. Ooooh, evil deeds indeed.

  The story and visuals were all over the place

  I seen this movie last week and I would count myself as a 007 fan but thought nothing of this one, I didnt like it at all. Dont think much of Daniel Craig either.
  Older bonds are better

  One of the worst movies ever. Not due to the plot. The camera work was all blurry, and jiggly. If you tend to be an epileptic stay away from this one!

• Nov 19, 2008 9:18am philip534 said:

  Absolutely the worst Bond movie of all time! Bring back the opening sequence with the dot...dot...dots left to right. Include the Bond Theme. Replace Judi Dench, and bring back a feminine Miss Moneypenny.

• Nov 18, 2008 3:50pm David said:

  All attitude action and atmosphere but missing any of the characterization that made Daniel Craig's first Bond feel so new and interesting. There wasn't much script for him to work with. A let down, but watchable.

• Nov 17, 2008 3:10pm kris said:

  Just AWFUL!!! This was not a james bond but an active movie. Where were the oneliners? What was the plot? Did he say the classic line"Bond, James Bond"? What a waste of money and time! Don't see it.

• Nov 16, 2008 6:50pm Lee said:

  Delivers the goods. Thrilling action, awsome visually, and Craig is excellent. A worthy entry.

• Nov 16, 2008 11:49am RJD said:

  Not only worst Bond film ever, one of worst movies I've seen a few years. Far too chaotic, almost like a rough edit of a movie; even cinematography was bad. Loved Craig, hated movie.

  Worst Bond so far-
  Quantum of Solace

  So I saw QoS last night and i havent been this disappointed in a bond film since he was driving an invisible car through an ice palace. Oh so like 2 movies ago. HUGE disappointment.

• Nov 15, 2008 6:13am Choozy Guy said:

  Great. Think the reviews who want "Roger Moore" style Bond back are the same that want a comic Dark Knight back.

  I rather enjoy Daniel Craig's harder hitting Bond.

  The long scene during Tosca was my favourite bit of this Movie, along with the Sienna horse race quick cut stuff. My main problem with this movie is the lack of dialogue, fun and sex.

• Nov 14, 2008 2:56pm James Ward said:

  Not the greatest Bond effort. The main theme was especially crappy. Where is Shirley Bassey when we need her.

• Nov 14, 2008 4:46am Blake said:

  Action too choppy. Characters not developed enough. The movie never slows down like it did in Casino Royale. That was a great movie and it is hard to follow, but this was not a great effort.

• Nov 6, 2008 11:56am Max Peters said:

  Thought this was a great addition to the reenergized bond franchise. I understand the mixed reviews due to a too short running time & lack of character development but QOS needs to be viewed as closure on Casino Royale as opposed to a standalone movie.
