One of the best movies ever

Rating: 10/10 (18 April 2007)

This is the best bond movie ever. I bought a DVD and i watch it when ever i can and that is a lot..
Daniel Craig has done a wonderful job. For once the action scenes are believable in a bond movie. They are so realistic. Craig can kill at his will. He looks like a cold blooded assassin in one instant and in the next he is the most charming guy.
The movie begins with bond in his early days at MI6. He gets the required number of kills to be promoted to 00 status and is off on a mission to find out how a network of terrorists is financed. This leads him to a ruthless banker "Le Chiffre" who has invested his clients money in a company whose stock was supposed hit rock bottom. But bond saves the company's stocks from going down and Le Chiffre ends up losing more than 100 million dollars. To get back the money, he sets up a high stakes poker game at Casino Royale and Bond has to win the game to stop Le Chiffre. Eva Green plays bond's love interest and is perfect. The supporting cast is good.
Martin Campbell has done a great job. It takes a lot of courage to change the "conventional" bond movie and Campbell and Craig, both have done an excellent job at it.
If you haven't watched this movie yet, you are missing out one of the best films ever made.
