Quantum Of Solace (2/5)
Posted on 27 Apr 2009
Nearly all the brilliant improvements that Casino Royale brought to the flaggingly goofy franchise are undone by the last reel: vaguely compelling super-villains, female objects attempting vitality, fancy set pieces that are mere dressing this go around, worthless chase scenes that are laughably cut (I imagine the stunt men came back to see their work on the monitor with dropped jaws–you cannot tell what is happening, they should have used stop motion stick figures). Bring Martin Campbell back, he gave us Golden Eye and Casino Royale, don’t mess with success.–Ok, I changed my mind on second viewing, this movie is pretty good (4/5).
Got something to say?
