The First Bond Film...

Rating: 9/10 (23 December 2006)

This film is about James Bond's first mission to stop Le Chiffre, a corrupt banker, from winning a high-stakes poker tournament and using the prize money to pay back threatening terrorists who lost money because of Le Chiffre.
I believe this is the first film in the Bond series and it's the second Bond film I've seen so I wouldn't know what to say if it's the best or not. I'm not typically a Bond fan but my dad is, which is why I saw this in theaters.
I wasn't that excited as seeing this movie as other movies but this film is very good. I wasn't very surprised because almost everyone said it was good.
And as everyone knows, there's a new Bond, Daniel Craig. His acting plus others, including Eva Green, Mads Mikkelsen, and Judi Dench, are very good. And Daniel Craig does much better stunts than Pierce Brosnan which makes the movie more exciting.
This being the first film, the famous line wouldn't appear until the end of the film, as so as the theme song. The credit sequence in the beginning of the film is very interesting, tied to Die Another Day. This film is a tad too long, running in about 2 hours and 30 minutes.
In my opinion, Daniel Craig is a much better Bond actor than Brosnan. This film makes your heart beat fast and it's one of the best films of this year. If you're a Bond fan, then you'll certainly love this film.
