Review of Casino Royale (2006) by Josh S — 11 Nov 2015
Bond at his very best. Casino Royale is the best Bond movie ever made, despite my preference to Skyfall. This movie is intense, filled with amazing action, and has a fantastic emotional core. This movie never stops moving until the end, and they got everything right.
The Bond song is fantastic, Daniel Craig as James Bond is phenomenal, Mads Mikkelsen as Le Chiffre is an amazing Bond villain, and Eva Green's Vesper Lynd is the best Bond girl ever put on screen.
The score is fantastic, and the practical action scenes shoot this movie to new levels of great. It slows at the end for a second, but it never loses my attention in the many times I have watched this movie.
I prefer Skyfall because I love every scene in that movie, and it never slows down for me. At times, Casino Royale can slow for me, but it never loses my attention. The first act is action packed, the second act is brutally tense, and the third act is heartbreaking.
The movie ties together as the best Bond movie ever made, and it has only Skyfall to compete with. 9.5/10.
