Quantum of Solace. Not as good as Casino Royale but lightyears ahead of anything before CR.

Major downfall--too much action and not enough plot. There needed to be more exposition between the action scenes, which also went on a bit long. There also wasn't a very memorable score, I didn't think.

But it had good points. Craig is a great bond, and the globe-hopping was fun. The use of a couple of female spies was a nice touch. And I really enjoy how the friction between M and Bond has become a strong subplot as Bond matures as a spy and tests the bounds of what his boss will let him get away with, etc.

Overall, a 4 out of 5 stars, for me.
