i went to see this show last night.

it's pretty hard to catch up what's going on. this show starts off straight from the last film. heck, u can just watch it back to back and u'll hardly notice that it is two separate movie biggrin.gif. bond is straight away scouring over the people whom vesper worked for, and those responsible leading to her death.

he's not holding back. this is the darkest, coldest bond ever. he has little or no remorse over killing people, especially those who he deemed as the bad guy. ofcourse, he is driven by blind hatred and vengeance, and he is not afraid of letting his dark side loose.

however, this sort of blinds us from seeing what the story is all about. bond was shown too focused on vengeance that the audience were left in the dark about how the villain, dominic greene, has to do with anything.

this film is action packed. not much romance or charm like the usual bond. actually, it feels more like jason bourne than james bond. chase scenes, fight scenes, explosions, firefights are all awesome. probably the part i like the most is that bond didnt use any gadgets other than a digital camera/phone. everything else is reused or commandeered from whatever that's around him. that's how resourceful he is.

so yes, this is a hard core spy film. however, it does establish how bond later turns from the vengeance seeking psychopath after the death of vesper into the more charming, objective oriented bond we previously know.

3/5.

The old people prefer movies (in this case, James Bond's movie) who doing 'magic trick' with devices. Seeing that today most of the 'magic trick' device already became reality, people today prefer a logic rather than a 'magic trick'.

I second that. It makes the character real and not some super-ultra spy as portrayed by Brosnan.

Quantum Of Solace Breaks Harry Potter Records

user posted image

The debut of Quantum of Solace is still more than a week here in America, but overseas it’s already breaking box office records. Opening in the U.K., France, and Sweden, Bond’s latest outing exploded with a massive 38.6 million in 2,123 theaters.

In Britain Bond shattered the country’s previous 3-day launch record, which had been held by Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by earning $25.3 million. It also set a single day record on Friday, earning $8 million in just that one day. By American standards those numbers sound miniscule, but internationally that kind of money has Solace on the fast track to being one of the biggest movies of all time.

This coming weekend it expands into even more international markets before opening in the United States. On Friday it arrives in 57 more countries including Russia, Germany, and Italy. By the time 007’s latest adventure finally does hit American theaters, it may already be in the black. With otherwise weak holiday box office competition here in the United States, Quantum of Solace seems poised to break records Stateside too.

Quote for truth.

Casino Royale has a more realistic approach compared to other 007 films.

this is not a new bond movie.. but a bourne movie.. now bond franchise start mimicking the Bourne franchise instead.. even the camera work n editting is the same like bourne movie now...

for me the era of bond is gone.. now it just a shadow for a new spy call bourne.. a real spy... jason bourne..
