Mav Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Saw the midnight showing last night. I was a bit disappointed. It was a good movie, and I love Daniel Craig, but it was definitely not Casino Royale-good. I think Hermie and Ztalker summed it up pretty well. The action was very hard to follow, and there was too much of it. Not a very memorable Bond film in my opinion.Saw the movie on Saturday, I thought it was good, I enjoyed it, but you couldn't really have expected it to be better than Casino Royale. It just didn't have the plot to be able to best CR. I really did like the... Goldfinger throwback with Ms. Fields covered in gold, black gold, subtle yet obvious I thought it was clever. Overall it was a good film, but it wasn't epic, not that I expected it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MdKnightR Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 The Brosnan films (with Goldeneye and Tomorrow being...somewhat 'normal' ) were too unrealistic for me. All the Bond films I've seen are unrealistic. Its kinda the point. However, if you really want unrealistic.... watch Moonraker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 After thinking about, I honestly though Quantum of Solace felt more like the other Bond movies. Like I loved Casino Royale and all, but that one seems to be an introduction of James Bond, in which it was, but didn't really seem like the other movies. Like QoS was shorter movie, around the same lengths of the other movies. It just felt like the all the other Bond movies to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattig89ch Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Just don't go into the theater expecting an epic film. Go in there expecting to see a bond film, nothing more, nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ztalker Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've never seen a James bond movie so, eh And you didn't know what Lord of the Rings was either. Or you're fooling us all, or you live in North Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ctrl Alt Del Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Saw it on sunday. Liked it a lot, to be honest, which was kinda surprising, since I didn't liked Casino Royale one bit. Loved the fact that the bond girl doesn't get laid with Bond - despite doing so with half of the male cast. That's for a change. I've heard of james bond. I've just never had time to see a movie yeah, with the animes and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ctrl Alt Del Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Yeah, well, more or less. She has her own vengeful agenda. On an aspect that resembles Bond mental state during the entire movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GwannaSauna Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I went to the movie with some friends and here's what I thought (may contain spoilers): I didn't know when the movie started since there is no title card and thought it was a movie preview The movie was everywhere and I didn't understand the storyline until I was told. I am also to believe many people didn't understand certain parts of the movie. For sometime I thought Bond was the bad guy for killing all those people and was surprised that there was more than one Bond girl. Humph! Guess they can't keep a Bond movie original, can they? We were never told much about the secret organization QUANTUM and I never knew which person was good or bad Also, Judi Dench seems to be losing her humorous good ol' M side. Now she's an emotionless block of ice And for many moments it seemed Bond was going to be arrested The only humorous part was when Bond tossed Greene the can of motor oil and left him in the desert The ending was too short and they forgot the finishing touch: Q and the gadgets! But IMO, the movie was great, and I can't wait for it to come out on Blu Ray/DVD! Sorry for some people if that seemed like a complaint. But I have my right to an opinion, don't I?

HdVaderII Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Very nice. Not as good as casino royale, but good. It had more of Bond on a private vedetta. Daniel Craig is still very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
