Saw the new Bond movie "Quantum of Solace." This is nowhere close to the great Bond movies of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.
Daniel Craig is a boring Bond...he has none of the sly sense of humor that Sean Connery and Roger Moore had; in fact "Quantum" may be the most humorless Bond movie I've seen.
Now, the era that started with "Casino Royale" is supposed to take us back to his early days in Her Majesty's Secret Service, and Craig's Bond is said to be closer to the character introduced in Ian Fleming's Bond novels. But it doesn't work.
The chase scenes (car, boat, foot, airplane) are just adequate, the romance non-existent.
The good: Nice environmental message; good portrayal of a two-faced villain; wonderful performance by Judi Dench as "M"; and a stunning theme song by Alicia Keys and White Stripes' Jack White.
Thoughts?
