Quantum of Solace prompts the question: Is revenge the only possible motive for large-scale movie heroism these days?
A.O. Scott, New York Times
Rotten
Quantum of Solace is a model of mediocrity, even though Daniel Craig gives his all to a production that doesn't deserve him.
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Rotten
The Quantum of Solace filmmakers have produced a super-serious, often visually incoherent travelogue of revenge and trumped-up angst.
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
Rotten
Forster, a director of upscale tearjerkers, has no feel for action sequences. The big chases, of which there are several, could all be replaced with a title card reading, 'Insert action here'.
Dana Stevens, Slate
