What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    "Another Way to Die" talks about not trusting anyone because they could be your "way to die." The movie is about a professional killer.

  • Violence:

    Lyrics in "Another Way to Die" include "I know the player with the slick trigger finger" and "Another tricky little gun/giving solace to the one." Instrumental tracks include titles like "Somebody Wants to Kill You" and "Have You Ever Killed Someone?" The movie itself sure to be full of violence.

  • Sex:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Promotes the release of the James Bond movie.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Quantum of Solace Soundtrack

Parents need to know that this album is the soundtrack for a movie that centers on a double agent's life of professional killing. That said, other than the theme song "Another Way to Die," the album is strictly instrumental. "Another Way to Die" does include references to killing, but nothing graphic or obscene. It's more about not trusting anyone because they could be your "way to die."
