Quantum of Solace (2008)

Another Bond movie with great action sequences and melodrama. The franchise has enlisted Paul Haggis to help with the writing of the 22nd installment, but adding more dimension to Bond is like adding milk to a saucer; it can really only be so deep.


A villain tries to take over the world's supply of not nukes, not gold, not diamonds, not oil, not energy, but water. Bond, who is still seeking revenge for the murder of his last woman, goes rogue and uncovers the plot to take over countries by owning their entire water supplies. He travels to the exotic locales of Haiti, Switzerland, and Bolivia.

The best part of the film is the opening chase scene, similar to the one in Casino Royale.
