Just seen it for a second time, this time on a really big screen.
I think it benefitted from the bigger screen, those chase sequences seemed a little tight on a smaller screen what with all the close up steadicam shots.
I liked it first time round, and like it just as much now: even the titles and song were less offensive to me!
Saw it for the 3rd time tonight and now have a downloaded copy (sorry..but if it's available?) so will watch again tomorrow - in typical Bond style this gets better the more you watch it.
The balcony fight scene - although brutal really shows DC to be a great actor - look at his face as he disposes of slate - brilliant acting although very HARD for a Bond film.
"Well i missed" as he flips the motorcycle and kicks the guy in the face.
The Tosca scene is fantastic - probably my favourite part of the film - so retro and modern at the same time. Yet it is totally BOND.
Me too. I really have no inclination to go see it again. In fact, I don't think at this stage I'd ever really miss it from my DVD collection.

I saw it twice. Opening night on my own, and two days later with friends.
I'm glad I saw it the second time, I could focus on the character subtleties. Won't see it again though. - On the other hand, I saw CR five times! Its definately my favorite Bond film.
This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

To answer the question - Once. Won't watch again until it comes out on dvd.
Loved the film just not one for multiple cinema viewing, only ever seen one film in the cinema twice and that was The Two Towers.

Took the day off yesterday to watch the first show with the wife, now I'm on my way to watch it again with the son, while the wife and daughter watches Madagascar 2. Normally when we do that, they have to wait since kid movies are shorter, but maybe this time the wait won't be as long!

I will see it again in the cinema another two times, making four in total. I just love it. I think if CR got 10/10 then QoS gets 9/10 in my book.
I love DC, love the underlying themes and the twist at the end, I really didn't see it coming!{[]
I was at a loose end tonight...so decided to watch QoS to compensate...
There are several awesome parts of this film:
The opening chase is great
The balcony fight scene - although brutal really shows DC to be a great actor - look at his face as he disposes of slate - brilliant acting although very HARD for a Bond film.
"Well i missed" as he flips the motorcycle and kicks the guy in the face.
The Tosca scene is fantastic - probably my favourite part of the film - so retro and modern at the same time. Yet it is totally BOND.

3 or 4 ? You not sure then ?
