007 - Casino Royale

I saw the new Bond film last night and it was fantastic! It couldn't have been further from the last film. Daniel Craig made me believe that Bond could be a heartless cold blooded killer and was not someone you wanted to mess with in a fight.

No gadgets here. Just a good back-to-basics approach that works well for a franchise that came dangerously close to self-pardoy in its last installment (and that's being generous, part of me feels it actually crossed that line a few times in Die Another Day).

It probably won't be for everyone, it's far more violent than previous Bond films but it works much better for it.

The film is well worth seeing if you're a Bond fan, and if you're not then this might be the film to change your mind.
