Daniel Craig Good: Movie: Bad

Rating: 5/10 (30 December 2006)

I am a huge James Bond fan and couldn't wait to see Casino Royale. The movie starts off well, has plenty of action, but the action scenes are too far between lulls. I know the name of the movie is Casino Royale, but the poker game scene I think drags on for way to long and tends to bore you as you wait for some more action. Yes this movie is certainly a new style of the them. Not many gadgets and certainly no cheesy lines which is an improvement. But for me the movie could have been much shorter and kept moving instead of giving 5 minutes of action followed by 30 minutes of nothing. The Villains are also fairly ordinary unlike previous movies. Daniel Craig I like as Bond. He is more of a rough edged Bond and I bet he worked out for this role as you will be able too see in a certain scene in the movie. Overall Daniel Craig welcome to Bond, but I hope the next movie is much better.
