Michael Medved thought that QUANTUM was too politically correct...He thought that US govt was not portrayed as a “good guy”. I do have to agree with him somewhat...
CIA section chief tells Felix Leiter, a friend of 007, that sometimes U.S. has to work with “unsavory” characters like Dominic Greene, the adversary of 007.
I do agree...Sometimes US has to deal with some people of dubious character...US cannot insist on dealing only with people who are 100% perfect...
Dominic Greene, the main villain, is interested in making a lot of money...He uses enviromentalism as a cover...I think that some enviromental wackos may not like QUANTUM...
I think CASINO ROYALE was better...However, QUANTUM was a fine movie. I could think of Bond films worse than QUANTUM: A VIEW TO A KILL, A MAN WITH A GOLD GUN.
I do wish that next Bond film would stick with some traditions. The gun-barrel sequence should always be at the beginning. Bond should say, “Bond...James Bond”. Bring back Miss Moneypenny...
Music was not too bad...
I think I will probably watch QUANTUM again when it comes out on DVD.
The only Americans in this film (except for the black guy of course) were evil and corrupt.
