Review of Casino Royale (1954) by Dustin D — 29 Mar 2015

When Bond becomes Bond. Daniel Craig starts and finishes this movie as being the best Bond thus far. Even better than Connery, big shoes filled well. Director Martin Campbell is back for his second outing in the Bond franchise and introduces two vastly different actors both gifted with the ability to play the worlds greatest spy.

This movie set a new gold standard for Bond, he isn't just about sleeping around and cheesy (but fun) jokes anymore. I personally love all the Bond films and I like all the actors but Craig comes in daringly. From the opening bathroom fight sequence to the ending torture scene he keeps things fresh and bold. And by the time he says Bond, James Bond. He means it and you'll know.
