Quantum of Solace comes out this friday

I haven’t really seen decent reviews for this movie yet, but it looks like everyone is saying that its as good if not better then Casino Royale. The film continues only one hour after the events of Casino Royale with Bond driving from Lake Garda to Siena, Italy “ with the captured Mr. White in the trunk of his car “ when he is attacked by chasing henchmen.

If you are a fan of action films, Quantum of Solace is your kind of movie. If you are a 007 fan, then you should enjoy the return to the hard edged roots of the James Bond character. All in all a great sequel and as the credits informed the audience, James Bond Will Return, and I cant wait. –Crave Online

In that spirit, here’s a quick rundown, on a scale of 0 to 10.Chief villain: 6 ” Amalric, who normally plays underdogs, hasn’t the stature of a Dr. No or a Salamanca, but he’s got the evil sneer down pat. Bond girl: 9 ” Olga Kurylenko is more than OK. Fight scenes: 9 ” frenetic, if familiar. And Bond ” 7: Craig certainly fills the frame of a modern, wounded action hero; but, just once or twice, could he, and this mostly knuckle-cracking, often crackerjack film, crack a smile? –Time

It’s been played outside the US for a bit now, have any of our friends over the Pond watched this yet? How was it?
