Casino Royal was good, but the wheels came off of Quantum of Solace.
The whole industrially designed incendiary hotel in the desert was just silly and there were far too many precious coincidences. In fairness, there were a few good scenes, but they were all thrown together without much thought of where they were going with the plot; the story was just far too illogical, without the suspension of disbelief crucial for and action/adventure story.
The ecological theme of greed and acquiring global resources was worthwhile if the story had made more sense, but after the first half of the movie it seemed like the writers were struggling to make the theme work in an action setting. Furthermore, the villains were rather mundane. No, Casino Royale was much better executed.
