Quantum of Solace
As a huge Casino Royale fan, I really had my hopes up for this film. In terms of action, this sequel delivers. Unfortunately the storyline falls short. Casino Royale introduced a new Bond, allowing the ultimate womanizer to fall in love, and now we get to see the betrayed and pissed off Bond who's looking for revenge. Overall the story had some major holes, and I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the Russian actress playing a Bolivian woman undercover as a Russian (she's a chick playing a chick disguised as another chick!). I would still recommend seeing Quantum of Solace, if just for the hotness of Daniel Craig and his Aston Martin, as well as the ridiculous action sequences. I just hope that the next Bond installment features more of the car, less clothes for Craig, and gets back to spying (as opposed to just killing) and womanizing.
Role Models
If you enjoy raunchy comedy or just seeing kids cursing, this is the movie to see. Personally I don't mind sitting through an hour and a half of bad movie just to watch Seann William Scott, but laughing for the entire movie is even better. And with Paul Rudd you pretty much can't go wrong. Combine these two with McLovin, a violent disrespectful 10 year old, and some serious LARPing, and you've got comic genius. So for those who are not easily offended, I'm rating this as a Must See.
