QUANTUM OF SOLACE | Chase across the rooftops of Siena 

Editor: How do you want the cuts? Bond: Shaken, not stirred.

The end of the last gunshot is where the traditional gunbarrel sequence and title credits should've begun. That would've been an applause worthy moment in the theatres.

4:29 As others have pointed out, this could've been a new trademark that started with Casino Royale - opening action sequence ends with Bond shooting at the camera, song starts, roll opening credits.👍

I counted 255 cuts in a bloody four and a half minute clip. I'm not sure we can rag on Taken 3 after that any more.

whomever designed the scaffolding stunt choreography is a complete mad genius... my hats off !

if they didn't have so many cuts it could've been one of the best bond scenes

3:19 okay, that is an awesome shot.

Glad I am not the only one who has a problem with the absurd amount of cuts in this scene.

Quantum of Solace was an under rated Bond film. If you watch it more than a couple of times you appreciate it more!! They say there were script problems - but if there really was -they did really well overcoming it. This is Director criticism - but he managed to put together the over all production pretty damn well!!!

4:29 Missed oportunity for gunbarrel shot. It would be perfect reference for Casino Royale style opening.

But you gotta agree at the very least, the music in this scene is great!

The ever-so-shaky editing in this left me more shaken (dizzy and disoriented) than one of Bond's dry Martini's.

A brilliant action set piece, wonderfully acted completely undermined by all the silly cuts. This film had a lot of potential but squandered it.

How many damn cuts does this scene need, holy shit dude

That shot where they fall through the glass is epic.

4:29 *bond shoots* *cameraman dead* *screen cuts to black* *roll credits*

Physically, mentally, hard work Bond is Daniel Crag. excellent movie.

I'm happy to see lots of other people mention the editing. I had to rewatch the last 5 seconds several times, because I didn't know what happened.

The shaky cam and quick cuts leave me confused than actually feeling immersed and takes away from the tension and clarity of the moment. You compare this to the sky fall train chase scene and it’s night and day. I’m glad they realized this was a mistake.

4:07 A magnificent shot. One of my favorites in the whole saga.

I feel like the more you watch quantum the more u like it.

For once it's the bad guy who is kidnapped, gloated to and with a little help from a single aid manages to escape without a trace. It's normally Bond who does that. Interesting reversal.

I have no idea why, but Daniel Craig's sounds of exertion in any action role he does is just crazy on my ears. He makes his characters, thus making Bond sound like he's giving the chase and the fight 110%

i think this one of the best action sequences in cinema

The thumbnail would've been perfect for a gunbarrel sequence in this film I.M.O.P

I will NEVER forget Craig as Bond !

Oh the editing ... I thought only the writers went on strike that year.

This chase is extraordinary

2:07 let's be honest we've all tried that in a video game at least once

I love this sequence!!😍

The ending is so cool.

3:18 This sequence reminds me of a Jackie Chan movie - improvising with the girders and scaffolding - but done seriously. It's amazing, one of my fave Bond scenes.

My eyes can’t even follow this scene at all, the whole movie in fact

say what you want about this movie but this scene is in top 5 Bond scenes ever! Such a classic chase! Thank you Daniel for portraying James Bond. My favorite Bond ever

this is like designing a full course meal and shoving it in a blender

1:59 I was OBSESSED as a kid when the guy jumped from roof🤣 It was like the coolest thing I had ever seen back then. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

What a superb idea to do a scene..really iconic.

The directing and editing in this film was questionable, at best.

The first three action sequences were all superb and the film is underrated. A shame the ending was a little lacklustre but there's a lot to like.

One of the most seat edge seans are here 👍.danial awesome

Quantum doesn't get the respect it deserves.

flippin' awesome!

Terrific

Despite the negativity, Daniel Craig brings a close performance, similar to Timothy Dalton.

Don't listen to all the critics about the cuts, it's an excellent piece of filmaking, like the car chase scene at the beginning. I can't imagine the amount of work that was put in to creating them.

full opening car chase theme song and that rooftop sequence is better that rest of film.

Wow the shaky came and constant cuts literally hurts my head

The most criminally underrated Bond movie.

Marc Foster probably thought showing the same motion and event with multiple angles and pans would add so much debt, obviously a very Jason Bourne inspired way of shooting but Bourne movies used this editing technique to make people see what Bourne was using, it didn't randomly switch every 0.7 seconds Why having 4 cuts of the moment where Bond and Mitchell fly to the glass roof? Another detriment of having complicated camera sets I think, he had so many shots just wanted to use it all And the result is this. This would be one of the most iconic Bond action sequences but it just causes headache to watch

If this is often considered Craig’s ‘worst Bond film’ - that’s only sign of such a high quality set of films he did. His worst is most people’s best

my favorite scene on QUANTUM OF SOLACE

You can tell it's like this all the time for 007 lol

Great scene made incomprehensible in the sewer sequence due to the edit.

Love this scene and my favorite Craig " Bond " movie..

the editing is honorific

Best Bond movie. Fight me.

This choppy editing style is terrific. I only hurled lunch, but at least breakfast stayed down.

Scena pazzesca!!😍😍💣

Most underrated Bond movie

Don’t know how people can say this movie tanked, it was honestly incredible

Editing excellence.

After this scene I never wondered again what the best action scene EVER was

Epic chase!!

Hard to believe this scene is only 4 minutes long, it felt like 10

Falls & jets 1 in the chamber: legend

O Mercenário que eu gosto. Bond, James Bond 😎🤵🏼🍸♥️😍🇧🇷

Oooohhh yeaaahh...Daniel is the best actor in the world!!

Bellissima Siena😍

ending part was great

One of the four classic elements is in this part of the film: Earth I don't know either the opening car chase or this one.

Fantastic sequence sort of ruined by camera work that is too shaky. It was difficult to figure out what was happening. Great ending with the final shot.

This camera was clearly shaken. Not stirred.

i dont usually like this shaky-short cut, but idk i find it cool and underrated tho

Yes, let's constantly cut to a horse chase because the stuff with bond is definately not as important as making pretentious art. The chase itself tho is great

Excellent student : teacher , you forgot to ask us homework! Whole class : 3:16

4:29 Awesomeness

M : What’s the last time you sleep Bond : No time to sleep

Only Craig's Bond who be able to parkour like this damn

They were must be very hype while choreographed this scene...

That horse race was a real race 👌

What looks like an old church. Bet it was restored a few times! Lookin' good! BTW, the old thing, torn down already?!!!

Brilliant choreography..

M: What happened to Mitchell, Bond? Bond: He was too high on life.

This is much much better than the Day of the Dead intro to Spectre

We had 500 camera set ups for this scene, and by God we’re gonna use ‘em all! -This movie’s editor, allegedly.

2:47 best fight on the Church in Siena

Daniel himself performed all the stunts in this sequence.

Lo amo,lo amo!!

I love that scene with this scaffolding stunt

I am going to start a Got Cuts add. I am going to use this for the add.

nice...when that one jockey falls off.... crazy stunt planning...

Grande inseguimento!!

Out of the 7 actors who portrayed Bond, I have to say that Craig is up there for me. Do I dare say #1. Let's see how No Time to Die is.

Mr White in QOS: We have people everywhere Mr White in Spectre: He’s Everywhere

The fact that we're supposed to get that the bullet didn't hit M but hit the medical stand with the shots and edits that we're given is maddening. It's nice to see this film getting some love 12 years later but for me, the editing ruins any real potential of real enjoyment. Outside of a few great scenes (opera is fantastic), it's still a very disappointing film for me

I love this underrated movie actually. In my perspective, entire movie messy editing only shows Bond bluntly hurrying for a revenge irrespective of the consequences. His thirst for revenge made himself a blunt instrument as some characters gets killed by him quickly everytime. Action sequences involving him(obviously) were too crisp for viewers to grasp as it is like a rollercoaster ride. Also, he was reckless when he throws fellow agent off the roof after the opera stint, who was later killed by Green's men. He only realises his mistake when Quantum kills agent Fields by drowning her in crude oil. Ofcourse, this doesn't slow him down going for revenge. Editing was messy again when he drops Camille at the station as revenge was still left. And finally, the so called messy editing becomes normal only after he gets to Kabira.

I'm genuinely annoyed at the fact that Mr White had so little development as a villain. He had a bit more potential than escaping MI6 off-screen, showing up at the opera, and then committing suicide two films later out of nowhere :/

Esse cara é o melhor 007 de todod

2:14 that must be hurt

The amount of cuts in this scene alone never mind the film is actiually crazy lmao
