Casino Royale (2006)

Cast: Daniel Craig (James Bond), Eva Green (Vesper Lynd), Mads Mikkelsen (Le Chiffre), Judi Dench (M)
For complete info, see IMDb's Casino Royale page.

I haven't been a huge fan of James Bond films, so I can't comment on the movie as a Bond enthusiast. I'd only seen the Pierce Brosnan James Bond movies so far and I saw those for him, not Bond. Having seen Pierce Brosnan as James Bond and clips of the other actors playing him, Daniel Craig is my favorite. It was hard to tell if Daniel Craig was a good choice before seeing Casino Royale. My opinion is that Daniel Craig is the sexiest Bond ever and that probably helped make Casino Royale my favorite Bond movie.

Part of the reason I liked Casino Royale better than the other Bond movies I've seen is that it concentrated a bit more on stunts and not as much on gadgets. That was cool in the other Bond movies, but I thought this one was more interesting. Daniel Craig didn't hurt, either. David missed the gadgets, but I didn't really think about that till after the movie was over and I was thinking about how I liked this one more than the other 007 movies I've seen.

I definitely recommend catching Casino Royale while it's in theatres, since the stunt work and special effects are always better on a bigger screen. I'm already looking forward to the next Daniel Craig 007 movie (in 2008).

Grade: A
