Movie Focus- Flaws, Good Points and Plot
I watched the movie a second time, and liked it a little better than the first time I watched it. Still, the biggest thing for me was I wasn't satisfied with how they explained, as they barely touched on, the development of Bond's feelings with Vesper, and Vesper's own.
Also, while I didn't have much of a problem with the opening scene itself, I thought the song that followed was the least, or among the least Bond movie-like songs for the opening scene. I grew up with Pierce Brosnan, but have caught up with all the others, and I enjoy them all, and Tomorrow Never Dies and For Your Eyes Only were good opening songs, and for the reboot I was okay with Casino Royale, but the rap song Another Way To Die hardly fit this movie, let alone a bond movie-- except the message you can't trust your co-worker in this movie.
But, while the action scenes were done well, in the sense they put a lot of work in to them, but I really didn't care about the action scenes except I liked Bond's flipping rope move to shoot his gun at the agent from Mr. White's Interrogation, but otherwise the only action scene I appreciated was the boat scene, and the firefights at the end, BUT---the movie was 95% action about, leaving very little to appreciate the plot, as mostly the movie is running, fighting, driving... and the entire plot summed up and literally put together by occasional semi-vague one liners in between every other action sequence. They just made it hard to get sucked in to the plot and appreciate it. I was not satisfied with how they failed to elaborate on finer story details.
Also, I hardly think of these girls as Bond girls, but good for Vesper, if they made that story stronger in QoS.
Poor story explanation, poor villain creation, no tech, poor opening song, poor bond girls... and I really thought they should have said something more about both Vesper and Mathis, from their previous film appearance.

The gun fights
Now I love the gun fights. Favorite gun fight list: The Beginning where he captured Mr White. 2: where he shot those body guards. 3: The gun fight at the hotel. Quantum of Solace had a lot of action in it.

All Bonds Mode
Why did they take the all Bond mode and get rid of it where you could play as all 4 007's except George? That would've been great to play as all James Bonds. What was the all Bond Mode all about?

Skyfall Review
WELCOME BACK MR. BOND.
ENTERTAINING. BUT SLOW IN CERTAIN AREAS. BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE FROM JUDI DENCH AS M. BUT JAVIER BARDEM'S CHARACTER RAUL SILVA HAS SOME MINOR FLAWS AS I WAS EXPECTING HIM TO ACT LIKE HEATH LEDGER OR IN SOME KIND OF ANOTHER DIMENSION OF HEATH LEDGER. AS YOU KNOW IF SOMEONE SAYS YOU HAVE TAKEN INSPIRATION FROM THE DARK KNIGHT THAN I WILL HAVE TO SAY IT DOES FALLS SHORT OF SOME CHARACTERIZATION OF RAUL SILVA. AND ALSO I WAS EXPECTING MORE BEAUTIFUL AND EXOTIC BOND GIRLS like - TATIANIA ROMANOVA, HONEY RYDER, NATALYA SIMONOVA, SYLVIA TRENCH, VESPER LYND, ***** GALORE, JILL MATTERSON, DOMINO, FIONA VOLPE, FATIMA BLUSH, ELEKTRA, TRACY, SOLITAIRE, ANYA AMASOVA, HOLLY GOODHEAD, MELINA HAVELOCK, BIBI DAHL, OCTOPUSSY, PAM BOUVIER, VALENKA, LUPE LAMORA, DR. MOLLY WARMFLASH, SOLANGE DIMITRIOS, STRAWBERRY FIELDS AND XENIA ONATOPP.

Best Bond
Who is the best James Bond? Dalton... Timothy Dalton. He made Bond believable. He had the balls to make his Bond
a little unlikeable. He plays a very human Bond. What sucks though is that he only played him twice. He played a serious Bond like Craig. No one bashed Craig for being a serious Bond but it's Bash Dalton Day every day, and the same reason- that he's a very serious Bond- is used. Give Tim more respect.

Quantum of Solace is good; surprised?
The Biggest question I have is HOW THE **** IS THIS A TERRIBLE BOND MOVIE!?! I love Bond all Bond movies, even the stinkers (Diamonds are forever, Moonraker, The world is not enough, Die another day), and I thought this was a pretty good one. Casino Royale did a good job at re-introducing Bond, but I thought QOS did a good job by bringing Bond back as 007. In Casino Royale we saw Bond get poisoned, lose at poker, get a gruesome torture, and quit MI6; The classic 60's Bond would never have that happen. I mean, I swear I'm on the verge of calling CR OVERRATED, and I'm already calling QOS underraated. I bet you if this came after DAD yall appreciate it. So go ahead and give me as many thumbs down as you possibly want, end the end its just an opinion.

great bond. great movie??
Dont get me wrong. its a good movie, as any bond movie is but i just found it one long action sequence. AND I LOVE ACTION! its just so strangely different. its more action then dialoge. sometimes, and this will sound sad, i will watch a bond scene and later i will go between the lines and go all emotions about it. all i got from this movie was, as M said, blind inconsoulable rage. i quite like near the end where bond spares domanics life to save camille. it gave me the feel that it wasnt all about his personal revenge streak. it is the only humanity you see in bond for about 96% of the movie. its a good bond movie, just a different one. i still recomend those who havnt seen it but here is two points:
1) watch casino royale first or it will mean nil to you 2) be ready for violance

Worst Bond Movie?
It's not that it breaks all the rules, the problem is that it breaks rules that are good rules, rules that should not be broken. Even worse than that though, is you don't get any creative benefits as a result of the rule-breaking. Gunbarrel sequence at the end instead of the beginning, for example. Adds nothing.
We were watching it again last night and, okay, now I understand how he managed to find Yusef. Dominic Greene told him all about it in the car ride out to the middle of the desert. The Yusef scene still has a tacked-on-to-the-end feel to it. And the money. Second half of Casino Royale was all about the money...where is it, who gets it, how's Bond going to get it back. QoS doesn't even mention the money.
The action scenes are a fail. I fear they might be filed away as something else, since it's clear they were photographed that way to make trailers. Good for trailers. Bad for movie. The villains are a fail. They're just not menacing. The evil plot is a fail. Water monopoly -- pfeh.
Worst of all, though, this isn't really a Bond movie. I have the other 21, plus Never Say Never. I waited a full two years before adding this to the collection. It just doesn't fit in.

NEW BOOK: James Bond is Real
"Who knew that the man who planned the escape of Nazi Deputy Fuehrer Martin Bormann, and perhaps even Adolf Hitler himself, was Ian Fleming, the creator of the James Bond book series? Learn of this incredible 1945 plan, ironically code-named 'James Bond' and much more hidden history, in Mike Sparks' new book which documents how Fleming, far from a mere desk-bound bureaucrat, was the real James Bond."
--Jim Marrs, New York Times Best-Selling author of Rule by Secrecy, The Rise of the Fourth Reich and The Trillion-Dollar Conspiracy "Mike Sparks' work is the missing link in the how-to of Military Intelligence land. The emerging reality we are living in now, was very definitely begun by Ian Fleming in his time. Fleming was the 'make-it-happen' genius of his time with more contacts than an H-bomb. When there are missing gaps in my own history, Sparks has it covered" – Greg Hallett, Lord Chancellor to Exiled King of England, Author, Hitler Was a British Agent "Mike Sparks has proven to be one of the most brilliant and insightful students of covert activities I have ever known. When he tells us, 'James Bond is real!', you can take it to the bank." -- James H. Fetzer, Ph.D., Founder, Scholars for 9/11 Truth; assassinationscience.com; Author, Murder in Dealey Plaza James Bond is Real: Author's Edition By Mike Sparks Paperback, 667 pages, ISBN: 978-1-257-84490-6
