Quantum of Solace Review by DC Tauntaun

As MGM goes back to tell the back story of how Bond became Bond we see the second chapter progressing that storyline very quickly. This one was also a stuntmans dream. Get ready. Get set. Go! and Go! and Go again! Non-stop action sequences to the end. Since this one takes place just minutes after the last one ended, Bond's loss from the first is obviously apparent as the body count rises. I thought they did a good job with his transformation from a guy who cared about a girl in the first movie to a guy who doesn't care any more and turns in to the aloof womanizer we know James Bond to be.

For Bond fans I believe the film skates by just fine as they get non stop action. Story wise it won't get any pats on the back as Quantum is just the vehicle for getting Bond from vengence to suave. No where near as good as the last one, but adequate and entertaining.
