Quantum of Solace



Like a breath of fresh air, I finally got to see a movie that was not suitable for all ages. My Brother In Law Joe was nice enough to watch Taylor while Tawnya and I went out just the two of us.

Quantum of Solace is Daniel Craig's second movie as James Bond, and the first direct sequel in the Bond franchise. We saw Casino Royale in 2006 and Loved It! I suggest that you watch the first movie before you see the second as it will help keep the story line straight as well as help keep in mind his revenge motivation that fuels this entire film.

There are no Gee-Wiz gadgets aside from Super-Techie computer stuff and no cornball double entendre one liners. Also gone are the Shaken, Not Stirred drink order and the Bond, James Bond introduction. Returned is the classic Bond theme music interwoven throughout and the silhouetted girls during the opening credits. 

In the end, this was not as good as the last Bond film, but better than anything Roger Moore ever walked through during his term as 007.

Sigh, who needs gee wiz gadgets when you have Daniel Craig to look at! He's so purty! We are both anxious to see it, but I think we each have our different reasons. ;-)
