It’s an exhilarating ride from the ubiquitous chase scenes in cars, boats, airplanes and on foot till you hear the quintessential James Bond music, see the archetypical gunbarrel before the credits roll and it's over.
Take a deep breath and keep watching. All the pieces eventually fit. At times I found myself watched the scenes with detachment. Since I know, after all the gunfire, burning buildings and chase scenes are over Bond will walk away intact.
Daniel Craig is stunningly perfect as the “anonymous, blunt instrument wielded by a government department”. The best line is an exchange between Camille and Bond.
Camille: "Friend of yours?"
Bond: "I don't have any friends"
It’s never more true than in this movie. Bond better not admit feeling close to anyone since in the next scene they will end up dead.
Like Derek I too thought the film lacked emotional substance. Nonetheless watching Quantum Of Solace, was an enjoyable way to spend yesterday evening with friends.

I liked the movie too..Daniel Craig is hot! :)
His Bond is not a seasoned Bond, and still has a lot to learn, ie not act on revenge. But he is def a Bond!
very hot.
