Review of Casino Royale (2006) by Thesodomizer — 12 Jan 2018
The purpose of Casino Royale is to re-boot the franchise. This is Bond's first origin story and the only bit of continuity is Judi Dench's returning as M.
Daniel Craig is "THE" James Bond. Admittedly Connery was much cooler and smootherThe purpose of Casino Royale is to re-boot the franchise. This is Bond's first origin story and the only bit of continuity is Judi Dench's returning as M.
Daniel Craig is "THE" James Bond. Admittedly Connery was much cooler and smoother than Craig but Craig bring to his character what no Bond actor has ever done. Humanity. We see Bond before and after an action scene. Craig show Bond's sentimentality,passion and grief.Bond isn't invincible and he knows that.
Speaking of action scenes. Every single on is suspenseful, something you expect to see in the end of an action movie.
Every Bond plot twist I expected was here but turned upside-down.
Locations used (Bahamas,Miami,Montenegro,Prague) are not there just for scenery, the all have their particular uses.
Casino Royale (No matter if you watched the previous 20 entries) is a completely new experience.
