Wow, you're right! I haven't seen the International yet, but it sounds like they've taken on the same overall them as Quantum -- corrupt bankers making inside dirty deals to keep the poor poorer and the rich richer. And then the two spies (a male and female) criss-cross the globe uncovering the truth and trying to take the banker bad guys down.

I actually liked Quantum, unlike a lot of people. I did think it was pretty hard to follow and when a plot point got too convoluted they would just distract us with a crazy car chase or something. But overall it was enjoyable, and I've heard that the International was a little TOO plot-heavy and didn't have enough thrills.

So maybe the filmmakers should collaborate for their next spy thriller so we get the best of both worlds?
