Explosions, gun fire, beautiful women in small dresses, more explosions and a witty line from Bond. Naturally, James Bond is bulletproof. Silly villains should know this.

"Quantum of Solace," the 22nd James Bond film, stars Daniel Craig, the same Bond who completely rebuilt the genre in "Casino Royale" in 2006. Still haunted by the death of Vesper, Bond puts his anger at the forefront and becomes an unstoppable force of vengeance. Still keeping the same cold and almost angry persona, Craig nails the role and absolutely makes the movie.

Surprisingly, there isn't the usual Bond love scene with the main actress, but rest assured, Bond is still in top form.

With some plot loops and a strange story, "Quantum" can be a bit hard to follow, but pay attention, remember that the last film is connected, and enjoy watching Bond do what Bond does best.
