"007: Quantum of Solace" Review

His second time as the role, Daniel Craig (James Bond) brings us back into the world of secret agents and devious plots in the most recent 007 film, "Quantum of Solace". The film picks up after the last film released, "Casino Royale", with Bond determined to find out about the strange organization behind the blackmailing of the love of his life. Unlike many previous Bond films, Bond does not have several thousand dollars worth of gadgets at his disposal. Most of the time, Bond is on his own, with only his gun to stop his foes. However, this is more than made up for by the intense action scenes, such as a pursuit across rooftops, and high speed car chases. The film also explores the darker, more human side of Bond, showing that even he is victim to the tempation of revenge, causing even his own organization to doubt him. "Quantum of Solace" is an intense addition to the growing collection of Bond movies, and it is definitely worth seeing.
