Quantum of Solace
« on: November 03, 2008, 20:47:37 »
Saw it last night;  a bit disappointing really.

If you had just spent the best part of a hundred grand on an Aston Martin, and you were unable to outrun two guys in Alfa Romeos, wouldn't you just take it back to the dealer and ask for your money back?

And for goodness sake somebody get Marc  Forster a Steadicam...  couldn't see what the hell was going on for most of it!  It was like watching The Word whilst green laning.  Arty farty or just pointless?

Bet he doesnt die - gets to race - and crash an Aston, then kisses/snogs some bird that at the start of the film wasnt the least bit interested in him!
Oh and can kill hundreds with a pistol - but all the baddies with SMG's couldnt hit a brick wall at 50 paces - unles you happen to be an 'innocent bystander/love interest'


cynical ? moi?

Nope I would go for driving lessons  :dance: :dance:

If Mr Bond had floored it and left the Alphas standing, surely that would have been a very short car chase scene  :lol: :lol:

To be honest, I though it watched like a very long, over budgeted ford motor group advert.....
