I've just watched Quantum of Solace for the first time properly (I tried once, and sort of lost interest) While it is admittedly pretty uninvolving and shorn of, well anything particularly defining in anyway, I'm staggered there are people who'd put it below Die Another Day in the pantheon. feck, even Moonraker is well above Die Another Die. Everything about that is rubbish. A quantum of rubbish.
What Quantum loses in pretentious Opera shootouts and bafflingly rubbish name it just about claws back in Craig's performance, pant wettingly hot Bond Girl and visible cars.
It was a bit dull by comparison but at least it didn't have Halle Berry, Mr Kill, MADONNA!!! a camp plastic disco ice palace and this....THIS feckING MONSTROSITY IN IT!.
Anything Moonraker might have going against it is more than made up for by "I think he's attempting re-entry sir".....Die Another Day had THIS feckING MONSTROSITY IN IT!!
It's the Batman & Robin of Bond. Anyone who doesn't hold it in the deepest contempt should be hung at dawn for treason.
Anyway....In lighter news.
