Casino Royale was first released in 2006 and stars Daniel Craig as the new James Bond, this time he’s a newly picked 00 with a Licence to Kill and has to face down Le Chiffre played by Mads Mikkelsen in a card game after Bond foils one of his plots, but if he’s not careful, this will be his first and last assignment.
You know, I actually enjoyed this movie, its very rare these days where you see a film that engages you enough in which you actually care about what’s going on rather than marveling at the visuals or cringing at the cheesiness of it all, Daniel Craig in on top form as Bond and presents a very straightforward and modern take on a classic character, one that works instead of fails.
Despite the fact that I really enjoyed the film, I do have one minor nitpick with the length of the film, in both the card game and the finale in
Out of 5, I’m giving it a 4 and a half for despite the length in places, its definitely a great Bond film.
