Paul BaackB-...I’m not 100% sure that that’s Ian Fleming’s James Bond up there on the screen, but I don’t care.  [Daniel Craig is] simply too compelling a 007 to not go along with.    READ MORE
Robert CottonB- ...so, is [revenge] our hero’s motivation?  Well, it might be if he didn’t hate [Vesper] so much for saving his life and giving him all the clues he needs to start hunting down her killers.    READ MORE
Bill KoenigB+ ...the film is tight, something that Eon hasn’t always delivered. The ending leaves things wide open for future adventures for a tougher, yet recognizable, Ian Fleming-created James Bond.    READ MORE
James McMahonB-...badly outnumbered, Bond decides it’s a good idea for him to simply rush into the hotel, armed only with a single pistol, and start shooting people.  That’s his grand plan.  Bond is apparently not yet one of our great thinkers.    READ MORE
Ed WernerB- René Mathis is without a doubt the best written,  most fleshed out Bond ally since Kerim Bey in From Russia with Love, and provides one of the most heart-shredding scenes in a Bond film since On Her Majesty's Secret Service.    READ MORE
Tom ZielinskiB-Quantum of Solace will be hugely successful commercially, which is bittersweet for me.  Good for the producers, but Tosca is not for everyone.    READ MORE
Derek JohnsonB-...Quantum of Solace is frustrating. In looking backwards and forwards it cuts Bond, both physically and psychologically, in ways we’re not used to.   READ MORE
Will HaunA- While a real respect for Fleming clearly permeates the screenwriters’ product, true credit has to be again handed to Daniel Craig for his master work as James Bond.    READ MORE
