What I got from Quantum of Solace is that I'll never stay in an hotel that runs on fuel cells.

I enjoyed this movie but felt a bit let down but that's probably because like you said Casino Royale was a tough act to follow.

Congratulations on the great work you've done in reviewing every single Bond movie (even the more obscure ones like the first two Casino Royale and Never Say Never Again).

Out of curiosity, do you enjoy the Austin Powers movies? I really like the first two myself.

I actually liked ALL of the Austin Powers movies.

If you are a big fan of the Austin Powers movies, I suggest that you check out the Derek Flint and Matt Helm movies.

 

Derek Flint was played by James Coburn and the movies were:

Our Man Flint

In Like Flint

 

Matt Helm was played by Dean Martin (yes that Dean Martin) and the movies were:

The Silencers

Murderers Row

The Ambushers

The Wrecking Crew

 

These movies influenced Austin Powers every bit as much as the Bond series.

 

Also, Michael Caine played a spy called Harry Palmer in another spy series, which was serious and not a Bond parody.  He looks exactly just like Nigel Powers though...
