There are some things to like about Quantum of Solace. The movie’s editing, too, hampers how its story plays out and makes for a disjointed entry in the series. It’s overstuffed with product placement, the film’s villain – Mathieu Amalric’s Dominic Greene – and theme song ('Another Way to Die by Jack White and Alicia Keys) are largely forgettable, and its plot is messy. Quantum of Solace’s development was hit hard by the 2008 Writers Guild of America strike, which led to some of the film’s major scenes being written and shot on the day they were filmed.Įven taking those mitigating circumstances into consideration, however, Quantum of Solace isn’t a top tier Bond movie.
