BOND IS BACK IN STYLE! A tremendous first step as Bond for Daniel Craig, and and incredible film in summary.

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2006)

Incredible, incredible, incredible...it's the only way to describe it. I had high expectations of this film before I had even seen it, and now that I've seen it (and I'm writing this review only 45 minutes since I saw it at the cinema) it more than exceeded my expectations-IT EXPLODED THEM! The film is NEVER boring. It is non- stop action that keeps you engrossed for the entirety of this three hour film. The acting is splendid and magnificent and very originally portrayed. Daniel Craig has the perfect look and feel in the movie. I think he is actually the BEST BOND ever (but I need to see him in few more Bond movies to finally comparing him to Sean Connery -his rival. Although Connery himself even suggested Craig for the role and supported Craig for the entirety of it's production. Daniel Craig shows Bond as more human. He gets injured emotionally and physically yet he is still the hard man we all know Bond to be, yet we see how the events of/and/before Casino Royale sculpt his coldness of character (yet Daniel Craig still allows room for humour). Of course there is still the "baddie", and non other than Le Chiffre-Private Banker to the world's terrorists and played fabulously and convincingly by Mads Mikkelston. It's a fabulous character relationship that Mads and Daniel create. You really feel that they are always trying to "shrink" the other and guess the other's thoughts. Very intriguing and gripping. In fact the whole film is, and the locations are to die for (and in in some character's cases), and Aston Martin is simply and work of art in itself (for a car) A tremendous first step as Bond for Daniel Craig, and and incredible film in summary.
