just like most bond movies there is a lot of violence, but that is to be excpected in soy movies, slightly boring but cool anyway. brilliant

What Parents Need to Know
About Quantum of Solace
Parents need to know that the second James Bond adventure starring Daniel Craig is, like 2006's Casino Royale, full of non-stop action sequences and has a darker, grittier tone than earlier Bond films. Unlike his predecessors, who barely broke a sweat while sipping their precious martinis, Craig's 007 bleeds real blood and gets into dirty, bare-knuckle, hand-to-hand fights. The violence includes knife fights, gun fights, fist fights, and fire fights. A liked character dies, a woman is tortured (off camera) in a particularly cruel manner, and dozens of characters die in explosions or shootouts. There are a couple of passionate kisses and one scene that obviously takes place after Bond and a woman have had sex (her bare shoulders and back are shown, and he's shirtless). Product placements are mostly cars, like Bond's signature Aston Martin, and language is relatively minimal ("s--t." and "bastard").

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what makes James Bond "cool." Is it his remoteness? His amazing physical prowess? Does the movie use alcohol and cigarettes to support or take away from Bond's appeal? How are different women portrayed? What makes James Bond so appealing (and enduring) in general?

just as bad as the others, nothing knew, mild violence, mild ---ual content, not as bad as the bond books them selves. but WARNING this movie is PPPFFFFTTTT compared to the other bonds(goldeneye, thunderball, goldfinger, live and let die, casino rayale, etc.)

This isn't as good as Casino Royale, but it's still worth the ticket price. The violence is about the same intensity as CR, and there's a brief scene were Bond implies that he's about to have sex with a Bond girl. He still has his vodka martini, but He dosen't call it "shaken not stirred". My concern with this film is that it might represent the message of revenge being good, which might be questinable to some parents. This isn't for kids under 13. 13 is iffy. 14 and up should be OK.

Quantum of Solace falls short a few times.
After seeing the great Casino Royale I thought this 2nd outing would be better but i actually thought it falled flat a lot of times. if you liked the Casino Royale movie than you'll probably be disapointed.

Dark, violent movie is exciting and emotional
Quantum kicks a--. It's not as good as Casino Royale but is by no means a let down. Peppered with frantic action and impressive stuntwork it nonetheless manages to fit in an interesting plot into its sleek 1hr 40min running time. Whilst it may not match Casino Royale for emotional depth it certainly beats it for pacing - I wasn't bored for a second. Camille is a weaker Bond girl compared with Vesper but she is servicable and Dominic Greene is a fittingly despicable villain. It's a brooding movie filled with dark touches and Craig's ruthless, physical performance which cements him as possibly the finest actor to play the role. But Bondians put your fears aside; this isn't Bond as we once knew, but he still packs in more than a few one liners, dry martinis and even manages to bag his signature gunbarrel sequence (you'll have to wait for it though!). Having to live up to such high expectations after the brilliant Casino Royale was unfair but QOS confounds expectations; it's better than it has any right to be.

This wasn't as good as Casino Royale, but Daniel Craig is the best bond by far!

Rip Off, Go See Casino Royale
This was a horrible james bond movie. Casino Royale was way better, this was just hard to follow. I defenitley do not recommend this movie.
- I rate this title on for age 2 and give itMy concerns are:
- Inappropriate sexual content
rubbish!
this film is the s*****t bond ever. somone being raped is not suitable for young kids! if i could i would put a no star rating!

Don't be so self-righteous, you nay-sayers!
This movie was very, very good - a throwback to the tone of the early Sean Connery bond movies. Those people that post things about inappropriateness for their kids need to take a different approach in how they talk/relate to their kids. It's essentially a cartoon without the animation, and always has been in this series.

One horrible, horrible movie
let's start off by saying that i am a huge james bond fan, i've seen mostly all of them and i enjoyed most of them (dalton's bond and some brosnan movies sucked), and i loved casino royale, but this movie was a huge disappointment. the acting was decent, but it was crappily done, the editing was absolutly horrible,(i dont mind quick cuts, but this was just unwatchable),and the cinematography sucked even more. i had high hopes for this movie (from the director of stranger than fiction), but when i saw the movie, all of my hope was gone, maybe he should go back to directing romantic comedies.

Better than expected
I have never been a big Bond fan, but this movie was well done and enjoyable. The length was perfect and the action and story was engaging nearly the entire time. Surprisingly little sexuality for a Bond film, not that there wasn't any, just less than normal. Most teens will enjoy this film, just know your teen.

A Big Disappointment!
Although it doesn't derserve the bashing by critics it is getting at the moment, it was a huge let down compairing it to other Bond films especially Casino Royale.

I guess a bare vagina isn't nudity any more.
I don't know how they missed, but this movie has vulgar nudity. The girl who is being raped bares a naked vagina. If you didn't see it, you missed it. Trust me, it's there, it just has no hair. Those weren't thighs! Not for my kids- or my husband.

Bond is Back, and Some!
After Casino Royale, I had to agree the Daniel Craig is one of the best 007s ever, but after QoS, I now think that he is the BEST 007ever! He is everythign a 007 should be, Fit, Charming, British and most Important of all, he is what Ian Flemming was in his spy days, a stone cold Killer! The Badies, The Cars, The Ladies, The Guns, The Chasing, The Location, EVERYTHING was here. I do have1, and it is only 1 criticism about this movie. Its the fact that the film goes up its own ass with it Hydrogen Powered cars and environmental Gobs**t. This is a spy film! What kind of spy film has hydrogen powered SUVs, comon! Bu other than that, Good job and good film

Very good and intense.
This was an overall very good and intense movie. its very violent at some parts, so i wouldnt recommend it for children under 13 or 14. this movie was really good for those who can handle it, but one of the problems i thought there was was that they showed no respect for women.
