new bond may be best bond

Rating: 9/10 (18 January 2007)

This is the first Bond movie I have been compelled to see at the theater since "The Man With a Golden Gun" which killed my desire to see a Bond film at the theater till now.Craig is nearly as good as Sean Connery and dare I say possibly better. He's tough,unrelenting and brutal as the books portray him.After the schmaltz of Moore and the prissiness of Brosnan,this is refreshing to see the real Bond finally emerge on screen.The wisecracks have a tone of mean undercurrent less of humor.the movie is devoid of childish devices and relies on Craig's ability to put the character's personality in prospective.I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed the original James Bond movies with Sean Connery and was disappointed with the actors who followed.
