Casino Royale

Rating: 9/10 (20 November 2006)

Daniel Craig gives a great overhaul for Bond after the Brosnan era and to great effect. The casino scenes and the rugged violence that Daniel uses makes the young Bond a good character to watch. The Texas Hold 'em, the opening scene over the cranes and the pure talent from Daniel Craig gives it a good edge for a film.
Bond isn't as perfect and unharmable as in the previous films which really humanises him well and makes him look vulnerable in places puts a new perspective on Bond, it uses it to good effect in this film.
The women in this film are stunning yet "Vesper" although stunningly beautiful is somebody who looks like she wants to mould and shape Bond. The action and drama as well as Romance Bond has really sets this film aside from most other Bond films we've seen in a long time. the reviews and responses from critics and fans have been overwhelmingly positive and right fully so. One to watch in the cinema and then watch again when it comes out on DVD.
A great Bond film.
