Quantum of Solace is the newest Daniel Craig Bond movie. It picks up directly where Casino Royale left off, so by my count it's the first Bond movie that's actually a direct sequel.
Quantum of Solace is a story of revenge. Bond is out to find the people at the route of Vespa's death, and this leads him on a whirlwind trail across the world. It's every bit as brutal and action packed as the first, in fact, more so even. It's a non-stop race to the finish, and you're hardly able to catch your breath. That's not a lot of depth to the story, but right now I'm more then happy with an all-out action Bond.
Blu-ray wise, it's a pretty decent transfer. Image and sound quality if superb, but it's severely lacking on special features. They will most definitely release a special edition down the line, like they did with Casino Royale.
Overall, a great movie. If you enjoyed the first Daniel Craig Bond, you'll definitely enjoy this one.
Score:
