Just watching on telly now.. it really is a cracking film.. the bland days of Brosnam are far behind, tough, gritty and spontaneous.. well done Daniel Craig :guns:

Craig has the Sean Connery look about him which takes Bond back to the best era.

Dont think it was ever a great film, although I do like craig as James Bond. Casino Royale kind of went a bit to far on the old love story front (more than usual), There wasnt raelly enough action. Thought the plot line was a bit boring to.

I feel that someone must go and wake Uncle Spielberg from under his Transformers duvet set to pass judgement

One of the worse films I have ever seen. A Total bore fest

Next you'll be saying you loved Quantum of Solace because of how action packed it was.
Casino Royale is easily one of the best Bond films, ever.

Has to be said that, in my opinion, Danel Craig has bought a whole new aspect to the Bond character. I really liked Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.

I am reading the Ian Fleming 'Quantum of Solace' - a book of short stories - it is really good.

To be fair. I am not a Bond fan. I stumbled upon Casino Royal doing a spot of babysitting. So won't be watching Quantum of Solace

Romance and a certain lack of action was how Fleming first inteded it. Casino Royale was closer to any bond book than any of the previous films. I thought it was great.

Just finished reading 'The Devil May Care' by Sebastien Faulks, writing as Ian Fleming. Very good, very good indeed.

I would say the closest to the book was From Russia with Love.

However Casino Royale was a decent up date from the book, until the last 20 minutes which they put in there so they could make a sequel.
