007 gets a fresh start

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2006)

Casino Royale is the beginning of 007's life as a secret agent under the majesty's secret service with a license to kill.This movie is all about bond's transition into the suave and sexy spy who kills without remorse.With his newly appointed double O status Bond must learn to control his ego.He endures heartbreak and learns to cope with betrayal.
Daniel Craig does a hell of a job in recreating a character made iconic by Sean Connery.Craig brings James Bond back to being a mortal with a vulnerability to love and an impetuous streak.Craig goes through the transition along with bond and by the end the two become one.Craig creates his own image of 007 and it is convincing.
This is not the best bond movie but it is surely a fresh start.Daniel Craig gives 007 a new identity . Casino Royale moves at a fast pace and more than compensates for the lack of cool gadgets(which might resurface in the next one).
