That's odd indeed I highly enjoyed the song, and thought it was a very good collaberation between Jack White and Alicia Keyes. Mind you I liked Casino Royale's song a little better but that's just due to me being a Chris Cornell fan.
I liked the movie a lot. I liked that it was a direct sequel. The only thing that kind of bothered me was some of the inconsistencies from casino to this dealing with bond. I mean at the beginning of Casino bond has a great free running type scene through the town and looks somewhat graceful or at least knowleagable at doing it, but in the scene where hes chasing the guy on the roofs and things in Quantum he seems to have trouble and fumble around a lot. Also for his love dying and him wanting revenge he didn't seem that angry and blood thirsty for revenge to me. But eh thats just nitpicking over all I enjoyed watching it and I was glad this movie didn't have three ending points sort of like the first one did.

it's possible he wasn't so much thirsty for revenge, as he was thirsty for death. once again, I think the title of the song ties in perfectly

well, I didn't read the long review and all your answers, but How can someone like that movie?!?!!
Sorry, it is so bad! Casino Royal has not been a real "Bond" but a half good action movie. The new Bond is neither a Bond nor a good action movie. One of the worst movies I've seen in the last months... really... The story, the cuts, the erotic... nothing.
And I dislike Daniel Craig ^^
hard words

Casino Royal was a much better flick than Quantum. Craig isn't Bond, he's a bod for the ladies to look at. Sean Connery is Bond.
Quantum of Solace - Jamo - 11-27-2008
Yes, and Roger Moore

Craig's Bond is the only one I'd be scared of. The rest, not at all.
Quantum of Solace - Jamo - 11-27-2008
Only because he is just behaving like a pubescent teenager. You never know what stupid step will be the next ^^
You should not be scared about Bond. Bond is charming, smart, Q, a touch of erotic and Vodka Madtini, shaken not stirred!
Craig has nothing of that IMHO

Bond is supposed to be a killer. I love Connery and would watch him brew tea in a movie, but he's not a killer. Craig? Oh yeah. Him I would respect.
Quantum of Solace - Jamo - 11-27-2008
Yeah, he is a killer. but he is not the killer YOU should be afraid of, he is the killer his enemies should be afraid of because he knows exactly what he does. Not this incalculable Craig

I think Craig has been a great bond. This is suppose to be him as a young 007. Not the suave know it all as the other bonds. Royale was to some degree a prequel to the rest it was suppose to look at bond becoming a 007 and being more emotionally involved and more of a killer and I think craig pulls this off perfectly.
