Bond is only half-back.  Truly, the movie was tintillating and intriguing.  But it was far too demanding on the viewer and the actors in the film.  Action, action and more action was the main

premise of this newest Bond thriller.  But it was an overkill thriller in so many ways.  One action packed scene led to the next with no time to savor or understand what was really going on. 

If you love action, action and more action with no real thought or feeling you will like this film.

However, if you want some substance like evil overcome by good, romance, seduction, humor and that famous quote, " Bond, James Bond," then the film is seriously lacking. 

Daniel Craig is a phenomenal choice for the new James Bond as was evidenced in "Casino Royale."  The exploration of his character and demeanor as a smooth, seductive, highly intriguing individual was lost in the "Quantum of not so much Solace."  I hope that next year Craig does again reappear as "Bond, James Bond" in the next saga of our most enticing and exciting spy.
