Quantum of Solace

I know some people are going to disagree with me on this, but the best film of the year has yet to come out. Being released in US theaters on November 14th, the 22nd Bond film [EON Productions] to date, Quantum of Solace looks to be an explosive ride. Featuring the current face of James Bond, Daniel Craig, and directed by Marc Forster, QoS is the follow-up to 2006's Casino Royale and finds 007 doing battle with Dominic Greene [Mathieu Amalric], a member of the Quantum organization posing as an environmentalist, who intends to stage a coup d'état in Bolivia to take control of its water supply. In his efforts, Bond is assisted by the beautiful Camille [Olga Kurylenko] who takes the place of Vesper Lynd for whom James seeks revenge.

Based solely on his performance in Casino Royale, I would rank Daniel Craig as one of my all-time favorite Bonds, and I was very excited when I read that Craig has been signed on for Bond 23, 24, and 25. Bond 23 has been tentatively scheduled for release in 2010.
