Trivia:
Filmed (but cut in the final release) is the infamous coda-ending (revealing the final fate of Mr. White), where Bond tracks down and discovers that Mr. White (who was missing earlier and assumed of eliminating Greene) was in league with Guy Haines. Haines was earlier spotted by Bond in Bregenz. He notifies M, went in and had a scuffle with White before he introduces himself to Haines. The gun-barrel sequence seen was originally intended to come in place just as Bond eliminates White for good. Part of the ending can also be seen in the video game tie-in. more
Goofs:
Errors in geography: James Bond is clearly not in Port-Au-Prince. The harbor is all wrong, there are no luxury hotels or home on the bay and the general conditions of the building are much better than in Haiti's capital. This was actually Colon, Panama, on the Atlantic coast. more

Something is not quite right with this latest Bond offering, 6 November 2008
6/10
Author: Gordon-11 from Hong Kong

This film is about James Bond cracking down a multi-national corporation that works with dictators to get a share of precious natural resources.

"Quantum Of Solace" has an impressive opening sequence. It has high speed car chases with lots of collision and gunshots. The ultra short scenes (all under one second each) and the shaky camera gives urgency and thrill, but it is so hard to actually work out what is happening.

There is a lot of action and adrenaline in the film, but the plot seems not to have a focus. Nor does it make sense either, as it feels like an all-action-no-information film. All Bond does is to run around the globe after his target, and viewers are left to wonder how he made it. I don't find myself caring for the plot or the characters. I don't know why this happens, but something is not right with the film and I don't know what.
