BEST bond film ever...well almost!

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2006)

Okay, well many thought that Daniel Craig was gonna be a terrible Bond, that Casino Royale was going to kill the Bond franchise! Well they're all terribly wrong, this is by far the best Bond film out of the lot! It's lost the camp qualities that I found were present in the previous films and it's become a more gritty, realistic representation of Bond - it's finally the Bond that Ian Fleming created! Maybe audiences are too used to the other films to accept a different approach but it breathes life into a franchise I thought, personally, was dead since they stopped being Ian Fleming's stories! The characters are more padded, more real. No cat stroking megalomaniacs that are all too ready to explain their world domination plans. Overall this film has brought Bond to a new level...you have to see it, it's Bond!
