Agent 007 is an extremely angry man in his latest action adventure Quantum of Solace. You really don't want to mess with this guy; he won't think twice to shoot you down and walk briskly away.
Quantum of Solace (QOS) is the second James Bond film with Daniel Craig and the first Bond movie sequel. Casino Royale ended with the betrayal and murder of Bond's first ever true lady love; in QOS, he is all out to extract his revenge, while also bringing down the bunch of baddies who plan to wreck the environment.
Bond finds himself in a rather precarious situation in this movie. He has identified the enemy, none other than the wily Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric) who is assembling a cartel of international business magnates to control the world's water supply. But the British and American governments want Greene on their side, and the Foreign Secretary tells Bond's boss M (Judi Dench) that if she doesn't pull Bond out of the field, 'the Americans will put him down'. And so Bond is pretty much on his own this time, more than on any previous occasion, where M was merely reprimanding his reckless conduct and not his choice of mission. But as we all know, Good prevails over Evil and Bond saves the day while also avenging the death of his lover.
When Daniel Craig took on the garb of James Bond, he gave the character a whole new personality, right from his muscular build to his 'no time for making love' attitude. The new Bond girls are not around to merely shed their clothes and bed Agent 007. They have their own scores to settle and come across as powerful personalities in their own right. There may not be those hot scenes, but the adrenaline rush is all there in some rather breathtaking action scenes that bring you to the edge of your seats.
Quantum of Solace is one heck of an action-packed celluloid trip that Bond addicts and all movie buffs will greatly enjoy.
