We can only blame *Casino Royale.* The 2006 reboot of James Bond was so brilliant, so satisfying, so organically of the moment that it could only prove hard to top, and even hard to equal.
New films stayed out of the way of Quantum of Solace at British multiplexes this past weekend, which looks to have been a wise move: 1. Quantum of Solace: £9.2 million (2nd week; drops 40%) 2. High School Musical 3: Senior Year: £1.5 million (3rd week; drops 45%) 3. Ghost Town: £.71 million (3rd week; … more…
All this week! 5 movies I’m psyched for in November — well, 3 movies I’m psyched for and 2 I’m not yet totally sure about but would like to be psyched for — and 5 reasons why. No. 3: Quantum of Solace [opens wide November 14]. 1. Two years ago, Casino Royale blew me away … more…

Here, alas, he lands somewhere squarely in the uninspired middle with a character who is by turns bumbling and sophisticated, idiotic and brainy, dorky and irresistible to women, contradictions … more…
License to Shill Explosions. Babes. Gadgets. Exotic locales. Nasty bad guys with German accents. A lovely, tuxedo-clad good guy with an English accent. Tomorrow Never Dies (starring Pierce Brosnan, Jonathan Pryce, Michelle Yeoh, and Teri Hatcher) is a Bond movie. Nuff said. What it does, it does well. But it’s cinematic junk food that you … more…
