Review of Casino Royale (1954) by Matt M — 16 Jan 2013

The rebirth of James Bond as an anti-hero, this film is a happy new beginning for 007, portrayed by a new actor, the cold Daniel Craig, as a new man with a dark past. This story actually dares to dig in on the dramatic events that led to his cold heartedness, and mixes it with the usual mix of cool action sequences, strange futuristic gadgets and glamorous beautiful women.

Apart from the slow spots, this is an ideal reinvention of the James Bond on the 21st century.
