I love how animalistic Greene is during his one-on-one with Bond. Where as Bond is a strong and calculated killer, Greene is unpredictable and wild with his offense. He had Bond counterattacking the entire time, which was Greene's downfall with that final swing.
I agree. While the editing may convey the chaos, I don't think it was on purpose. It's just messy and all over the place and a waste of otherwise spectacular sets.
always love seeing Olga Kurylenko in the action roles, she knows how to kick ass and look good doing it, alotta ppl hate Quantum of Solace but i think it's a damn good movie
All the bond films serve their purpose I don’t know why Quantum gets hate as I actually really like it yeah it isn’t as good as Casino but Quantum serves as bonds rage and anger after vesper died as through the film he simply doesn’t care who he kills as it’s only way to cope with her death doing what he does best but obviously at the end he simply just has to get over it which in the long term he does but vesper will always be on bonds mind it isn’t until no time to die that he finally lets go off vesper I seriously don’t understand why people hate the whole vesper love storyline as I think it gives bond some depth and shows that he’s clearly a person with feelings even that of love and not some emotionless killing machine although he is when he has to but still
I also think that Olga Kurylenko is a very beautiful classy elegant gorgeous graceful pretty super sweet and underrated Woman.She often looks very good when she kicks Asses.So down to Earth and stunning.A true natural Beauty and Summer Sunshine Sweetheart with a warm Summer Sunshine Smile.She combines Beauty Class Elegance and Grace.
1:05 Even though the movie is not that good, that is one of the best scenes in it. That explosion take is completely stunning, one of my favorites in the whole franchise.
I think there were some "minor" Bond-girls, who never ended up in bed with him in older films. Also, it's possible to assume that Bond and Tracy never had sex.
Yeah I was surprised that he put up a relatively long fight against Bond. I mean Greene was short and physically not very imposing, but he really got Bond on trouble for a short time. Bond took out a lot bigger guys much quicker...
In a film that I positively dislike, that has to be one of the best moments. That’s what I find frustrating, these incredible moments buried in bad editing, poor storytelling and a generally dull film. Craig is absolutely phenomenal in this one, but he couldn’t save it for me personally. This moment is particularly reminiscent of Bond’s thoughts in the Live and Let Die novel, where he decides before the boat starts towing them through the water that if he can’t get both him and Solitaire free from the rope as they’re dragged along the reef, he’ll intentionally drown her to spare her the worse fate of being eaten alive by sharks. He’s given up nearly all hope, so he puts all his thought into sparing his companion from a horrifying death.
I don't remember feeling this way when I first saw this movie but parts of this actually made me feel dizzy with the frequent cutting. Aside from that, mixed feelings on the fight between Bond and Greene itself. I don't know if he really feels like the type to go head-to-head with Bond or is better suited to a mastermind role (like, say, Elliot Carver) but his crazy screaming and laughing as he just swings that axe like a madman are pretty great.
That's the point - he isn't a better fighter. He isn't a fighter. But Bond keeps having random explosions to deal with, while a person who is swinging can be dangerous even to a professional fighter. There are couple of seconds where they fight on more equal playing field and Bond demolishes him.
Hell yes but nothing to do with EA, Activision or any other gaming scum. Hopefully by someone like the Free Radical guys'n'gals responsible for the TimeSplitters games... that'd be so cool.
Not the fault of Anatole Taubman [he was far better in a small part in "Taken"] Elvis has got to be one of the most silliest and useless henchmen in a 007 movie. No time at all does he pose any sort of threat, besides being a witness and pointing a gun, he managed to get himself injured by an MI6 secretary - blame the chaos of the writer's strike at the time.
Never understood the hatred towards this film, I thought it continued the story nicely, though it did fall into the problem that so many of its kind did at the time that stupid shaky camera quick cut effect that the Born films infected Hollywood with which made a real stain on the viewer experience
Ngl. Out of all of the 007 actors, Daniel Craig is the most badass bond I've ever watched. Not taking anything away from the past actors who have played the titular character but Craig's portrayal is phenomenal in my opinion. And this guy can fight. Got hands for days. Lol
i actually don't mind the frenetic editing and pace of these scenes. It is a jarring with so many cuts, but also different from other bond movies. all in all, i wouldn't want all bond movies to be like this, but i really didn't mind Quantum, i thought it was a great movie. It's no Casino Royale, but overall a very entertaining movie.
This is Bond at his most brutal - no chivalry, the spy wants revenge, and so does his partner. Vicious editing, notably in this final scene that contrasts 007's encounter with the villain and Olga's fight with the man who dishonored her family.
Gotta say, this film's a bit of a missed opportunity with some dodgy editing and directing decisions, but I do love the idea of Bond considering killing himself and Camille in the fire. Reminds me a bit of the Moonraker novel when Bond and Gala believe that a rocket is going to destroy London so he just says "Yeah, I'm gonna light up a cigarette under the Moonraker. Join me if you want". Or when Bond tries to hold his breath and somehow 'black out' or kill himself in order to spare the pain of being torn up by a chainsaw in Goldfinger.
@@leecroft1983 Yes, it's a chainsaw instead of the laser seen in the film. Also, the equivalent of the 'Do you expect me to talk' exchange genuinely goes like this: Bond: "Well, in that case Goldfinger, you can go and f---- yourself." Goldfinger: "Even I'm not capable of that, Mr. Bond!"
Bond hits greene *explosion* girl stabs general *explosion* green yells 'aheuelaoeauee' swingly wildly*another explosion*girl and general struggle......................................................Perfect Bond sequence.
I liked that Bond's fight is with the less physically imposing villain while Olga Kurylenko fights a massive guy, purely because of the plot, whereas in Sean Connery's day you could expect Bond to fight them both and the woman to just sit there. I also didn't mind the editing so much as that the hotel walls are randomly full of napalm
This action sequence is unintentionally funny while simultaneously making me dizzy watching it. The best part is when Greene succeeds in defeating himself by cutting his foot with his own axe. That shit is just too funny!
No, but the amount of editing and the way this particular scene ends could never and should never do it justice. Remember too, this is the ending. Not the end-end but the end of the major plot.
I actually prefer this kind of villain because they’re really out there, trying to control resources, trying to exploit people. I wish this movie hadn’t failed.
I remember catching this scene while flipping through the channels one day, when I was a kid. never knew the name of the movie until a few years later, but it always stuck with me.
@Maria Kelly of the Daniel Craig Era... And yes it's supposed to... But Bond had 0 personality here. Or you count a bull as character. He looks dead inside. The movie is tasteless, the camera work is bad. And it starts by a car chase, how? At the end of Casino Royale, he shot the guy peacefully in a lake house, suddenly he's chased by dudes in FWD Alfa Romeo that somehow can keep up no problem with a DBS... On dirt ok, but on road? And trying to relate to his love for Vesper at the end just ruins the love he had, and made him cold yet fun and sarcastic. Casino Royale was supposed to be James Bond before THE James Bond everyone knows. So ok, but this one, he should have started to be more James Bond. Yet he felt like a Machine.
@@RomainSandt "He looks dead inside" thats basicaly was planned to be like that, he still hasn't recovered from Vesper's death, only at the very end will he recover completely, and you blame the movie for that too? seriously?
@@splintergectornathan9045 playing dead inside, and acting like a cow isn't the same thing. A tough guy falling in love worked in the Casino Royale. And yes this movie was badly written, badly directed. Action scenes made no sense. The story of the making of this mess of a movie is more interesting than the movie itself. It's the only recent Bond movie that has a story most people can't recall enough to explain. As for being broken by Vesper's death... They pulled that string to the last movie. BTW, in the last movies, as much I don't like Madeleine Swann character's, or Lea Seydoux in that role (I think she's a bad actress in English) Craig managed to be violent but with emotions, yet delivering fun Bond/British humor. So... It could have been done.
0:48 Greene lifting Elvis's arm up for him to point the gun. Is that cuz Elvis is wearing a neck brace (after Fields tripped him down stairs earlier in the film) or has Elvis never actually used a gun before?
I guess it was meant to show how Greene is bossing his henchman around and lets him do the fighting, while he flees. Basically, Elvis could have been a funny henchman, but the movie did not delve into this.
I never realized how many jump cuts were used in the action sequences. It does feel a little artificial. Buuuuuuuuut, I still like the movie as a whole.
Yes. There’s a lot of cuts. That is the entire point. Quantum is chaotic after Casino Royale. He is on a murderous rampage of revenge after Vesper. This chaos helps him build to be the incredible finished polished bond we see in Skyfall at the end, he’s turned into a killer, then a lover, then back to a killer this time with finesse and power.
This action scene was heavily shot and edited with shaky-cam/fast-quick cut editing in order to earn a PG-13 rating in the United States and a 12 Rating in the United Kingdom so either the most violent/brutal shots or bloodier grisly graphic parts don’t last extremely long
Poor visual compositions, far too many cuts, underwritten characters, Bond is little more than an animated action mannequin, there's plenty to loathe here.
I agree, when I saw this at the Cinema I felt robbed. Casino Royale was different than the previous Bond movies, it was obviously a post Bourne Movies. But the characters were good. Then we got this, that was supposed to strat minutes after Casino Royale, yet had non of the first qualities. I was pissed, took my girl friend, a Bond afficionados she hated too. I remember saying at the time he's like a Bull, strong and stupid always charging.
Halle Berry, Rosamund Pike and Olga Kurylenko ironically all starred in Bond spoofs because their actual Bond film was too bad! Halle Berry was in Kingsman 2 and Rosamund Pike and Olga Kurylenko were in Johnny English 2 and 3😅
Am I the only one thinking he over acted the hell of that fight with those over the top screams ? 1:28 1:35 1:37 2:16 2:24 2:33 was the only one that made sense, considering he just chopped his foot in half.
@@samuelmajka4804 Silva didn't fought bond hand to hand like this the closet they got was at the island but they didn't actually fought and in the hearing with m but again didn't actually fought the only villian who fought bond hand to hand was Greene
@Qasim Hussain Silva was a former Mi6 agent and would’ve had the same training as bond so I think it would’ve been cool if they fought. As for Le Chiffre , he wasn’t an agent or anything but he’s still a big imposing guy so despite him not being a match for bond he could’ve still put up a fight like Greene.
Even when there is not a very consistent plot, this movie likes because the photography, the wardrobe( just see that Harrington jacket) and the locations (Parana observatory looks gorgeus)

I like to think Camille Montes is one of the more underrated Bond girls, mainly because she's more than just "Bond girl".
Her biggest problem is that she starred in the worst film of the Daniel Craig era 😬 makes her excellent acting being forgotten
@Matthew Barrick She's very hot and she is memorable. The film is terrible though due to boring plot and terrible direction of action scenes.
@@FormulaManuel
I think "Spectre" is much worse. Yes, "Quantum of Solace" is a mess, but "Spectre" is gut-wrenchingly awful.
Bond also didn't bed her so she actually survives.
She was a target victim of a terrorist.
And that's Medrano.
There are 22 cuts in the first 12 seconds...

Yes, this scene, the car chase at the beginning and the Tosca/kitchen scene are some of my all time favourites.
Well for me this movie is perfect
all Craig movies are great!
I love Pierce Bond movies.
This movie is the second best in the Craig verse.
Can’t decide what’s worst, the editing or the 90lb Frenchman that sounds like a goat on molly
I think it's actually cool because it shows how much he's not a fighter but a coward who tries to scare bond by screaming or some shit

@@OutCast907 if having big boobs and a great figure makes a woman a bimbo, then what about Angelina Jolie?

Loosely a tribute to the Bond-Zoren fight. Greene, like Zoren, is, how you say, axe mad.
You probably didn't feel dizzy. Because of the compression, this scene is unwatchable on youtube.
Underrated Climax to a Bond film if you ask me. Arnold's score here is amazing too (as usual).

I agree, when I saw this at the Cinema I felt robbed. Casino Royale was different than the previous Bond movies, it was obviously a post Bourne Movies. But the characters were good. Then we got this, that was supposed to strat minutes after Casino Royale, yet had non of the first qualities. I was pissed, took my girl friend, a Bond afficionados she hated too. I remember saying at the time he's like a Bull, strong and stupid always charging.
Somebody evidently skimmed on fire safety here. By a LOT.
Needed more quick cuts, could tell what was happening occasionally.
Halle Berry, Rosamund Pike and Olga Kurylenko ironically all starred in Bond spoofs because their actual Bond film was too bad! Halle Berry was in Kingsman 2 and Rosamund Pike and Olga Kurylenko were in Johnny English 2 and 3😅
I forgot how good the action was.
And hopefully you'll forget it again..
If only you could see it though
Am I the only one thinking he over acted the hell of that fight with those over the top screams ?

2:33 was the only one that made sense, considering he just chopped his foot in half.
When Bond leaves Greene in the desert, Greene get first-hand experience why water is "the world's most precious resource". Karma.
I just realized that Greene is the only main villain of the Craig era who fights Bond directly.
What about Silva?
@@samuelmajka4804 Silva didn't fought bond hand to hand like this the closet they got was at the island but they didn't actually fought and in the hearing with m but again didn't actually fought the only villian who fought bond hand to hand was Greene
It’s funny because Greene is the least physically imposing villain in the Craig era. Bond should’ve fought Silva or Le Chiffre in my opinion.
@Qasim Hussain Silva was a former Mi6 agent and would’ve had the same training as bond so I think it would’ve been cool if they fought. As for Le Chiffre , he wasn’t an agent or anything but he’s still a big imposing guy so despite him not being a match for bond he could’ve still put up a fight like Greene.
@Qasim Hussain Bond should have fought with General Medrano from quantum of solace
Esse é o mercenário que eu adoro.
Bond, James Bond.😎🤵🏼🍸♥️🇧🇷
Action scenes that use shakey motions is to hide bad choreography and editing . PERIOD
Esse filme é bom
Mercenario? 😳😳😳
@@TiagoSilva-de3yx É por que nesse filme ele sai se vingando de geral por causa da Vesper.
Could that possibly be more disorientating and quickly cut
ตอนนี้ ระบบเสียงดีมาก คมชัดทุกช่องทาง ❤❤❤
Even when there is not a very consistent plot, this movie likes because the photography, the wardrobe( just see that Harrington jacket) and the locations (Parana observatory looks gorgeus)
Man this movie was cut like a fever dream
Craig's bond girls always know how to put up a fight. Vesper, camille, madiline, moneypenny are awesome!!
Vesper? You sure about that?
I don't think so. He lost one or two in every one of his movies save for maybe Spectre.
2:33 My toes get jolted everytime I watch this
Good God,the camera movements in this movie are worst than those in a Paul W S anderson movie
I think the action scenes need more cuts. I can still almost see what's going on and we can't have that, no?
i'm gonna go out on a limb here, but I think there are a few problems with constructing a building out of hydrogen cells?
Not when moronic Hollywood directors get involved!
Spectacular!!😁💪🏼🎉
That caused a chain reaction on the whole block.
0:13
As which you can see here.

Yikes this sequence was busy. Too many damn camera cuts; it gave me seizures. Now I need to watch Tony Jaa's "The Protector" to cleanse the palette.
apart from the editing I actually liked this film. Help opened the world and hinted at spectre
Camilles a badass
I’m sure they have the footage for all these scenes somewhere who wants then to remaster this movie with less choppy edits
Dominic's shriek is as amusing as Jimmy. LOL
