Well I've just returned from the viewing of the new Bond flick-Quantum of Solace and I shall give my opinion of it, whether it is wanted or not. First off I did thoroughly enjoy it, it was very good, a lot of action a lot of interesting locations the cars and of course as always the bond girls (and in this outing of his he doesn't sleep with the leading lady, which in this case I believed fitted the movie.)
Of course though not all was....classic bond, which is not a bad thing but being a fan of the bond movies to date there are certain things that were lacking, the classic lines "Bond, James Bond" and "Martini, shaken not stirred" were not even muttered in the movie even though there was a scene where it should of blatantly been put in, in the case of the latter. The classic gunshot down the gun barrel wasn't done until the credits and bond was lacking his "humour" if you will and the bond theme was never played.
But for this movie to be what it was these had to be as they were (except for maybe the gunshot and the theme music). The movie itself was very very good, I liked it and I guess for Bond to continue it must adapt to the new audience though I do wish for it to adapt it didn't have to lose what makes in my eyes classic Bond, Bond
