Every James Bond Finale Ranked

10. Quantum Of Solace - Desert Hotel

James Bond Quantum of Solace

Quantum of Solace's ending is... awesome.

Yes, the build-up to this ending could've been better but that doesn't take away from just how good these final scenes are.

The final battle in the burning hotel is a visually stunning and relentlessly thrilling experience that, thanks to the fearsome fire effects, soulful emotional undertones and sheer intensity of the whole thing, remains one of the most hard-hitting Bond finales to date.

As well as this, both main villain Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric) and secondary villain General Medrano (Joaquin Coslin) get enormously satisfying, savage death scenes and Bond and lead Bond Girl Camile's (Olga Kurylenko) final conversation about their demons is low-key one of the most moving and best-written Bond dialogue scenes ever.

All in all, a fantastic and emotional conclusion that ends this uneven Bond film in stunning style.
