Picking up an hour after the events of 2006's Casino Royale, this James Bond adventure finds 007 (Daniel Craig) tracking a traitor who's infiltrated Britain's MI6. The trail leads to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), the charismatic head of a world environmental agency. But behind this seemingly legitimate facade, Greene runs Quantum, a powerful terrorist organization whose plot to overthrow a Bolivian dictator masks an even more sinister scheme. (Per Netflix.com)
Grade: B
Trying to describe what an action movie is to someone who's never seen one? Well, this definitely falls into the category of high-impact action, and would be a great example of it! I mean, from the first moments of the movie and on it was a series of fast-paced, ass-kicking moments, a total guys movie, which may explain why I gave it a B. This movie was somewhat lacking in a solid story line, I mean, I watched it for about 30 minutes, if not MORE, before the plot of the movie was explained by Bond, in a tidy little bundle too. It seemed like the plot was nearly an after thought to the myriad of different ways they could show people getting beat up and things getting blown up. But, if you can look past that little flaw, and enjoy the action, it's worth the watch!
