Quantum of Solace

The latest Bond film was a blast, literally. There were plenty of action as one have come accustomed to, including car chases, boat chases, plane chases, foot chases, and just about anything else you can think of. The movie felt a little bit convoluted for me, but that might be because I don't remember much from the last film, and this one makes a lot of references to that. But then you don't really go to see a Bond film for its story lines. However, there seems to be something lacking from this film, maybe there weren't enough expensive cars, or high tech gadgets, or indeed hot women! Olga Kurylenko is stunning though, and actually makes the Bond look a little soft. The franchise though, for better or worse, is definitely heading towards Jason Bourne territory. Daniel Craig is more rough cut than the suave Pierce Brosnan, maybe that'll give us normal blokes a chance! 4 out of 5 for me.
