M: Bond glad to have you back.
Bond: I never left.

Quantum of Solace brings back Daniel Craig as the British MI6 agent, James Bond, in the 22nd movie in the series fighting the evil organization Quantum. In addition to Craig, we have the regular cast with Judi Dench (M), Giancarlo Giannini (René Mathis) and Jeffrey Wright (Felix Leiter). Quantum of Solace basically leaves off where we left Casino Royal (directed by Marc Forster ), Bond love interest is killed and he's out for revenge.

If you are a James Bond fan, you know Bond movies consist of action-adventure, beautiful woman, exotic scents, spies and villains. With this Bond movie we visit the Europe, the Caribbean, South America, and Russia. One other interesting plot that is going on within the movie is personal ethics with Felix Leiter and his superior over right and wrong. But as in all Bond movies the good guys always win, James gets the woman and the villain dies.

The bonus DVD with the movie has behind the scenes with the actors, the director and other people on the set. One of the other interesting features that will happen with the release of the DVD is that production people, cast and even Alicia Keys will answer questions and other behind the scenes secrets through a blog that is scheduled to run for a brief period of the DVD release on March 24. So head to www.007.com.
