So here I am in theater 9, AMC Cupertino Square. This is where I saw Transformers…I can only hope Quantum of Solace is better. Worst case scenario: it’s Die Another Day II, I eat some Uno pizza and drink a big Zero, and that’s two hours donked off. At least I had credit on last year’s AMC gift card, so the flick itself is paid for. Makes me feel slightly better about $12 for a mini pizza and a small vat of soda…
Leann and I liked it. I think it definitely helped that we watched Casino Royale again the night before. It’s perhaps not as smart, but a) solid and with great action sequences, b) much in the same vein, and c) does not contain CR’s 45 minutes of false endings, so it’s at least got that to recommend it.
