Review of Casino Royale (2006) by Benj. — 01 Dec 2006

Hats off to Daniel Craig for brining the right amount of (much needed) grit to the role. However his achievements, coupled with some great set pieces, are runied by a ridiculous running time, and a terribly hammy final quarter.

Drop the drawn out ending, shave 40 minutes off the films length and you'd have a great film. Sadly, this is only average.
