Casino Royale

Other than the first black-and-white scene and the opening credits, I thought the new bond was superb. Daniel Craig did a great job of stepping into the role. In my humble opinion, he was a far better Bond than Peirce Brosnan (although I have to give Golden Eye the props it deserves). And when I say better, I mean he is a better actor. Brosnan was just too clean and to pop to fit the rough and suave Bond role.

I do have a couple of negative comments about Craig. He walks funny. He walks like a male model on a Project Runway. He also makes funny expressions with his lips. It reminds me a lot of Ben Stiller in Zoolander. Other than that though, he plays out the dialogue and action sequences very well.

Great directing and great script. Better title than "Casino Royale with Cheese".

Rating: 9 out of 10.
