Casino Royale (2006)
Directed by Martin
Campbell this is the 21st film in the Bond franchise and
stars Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Mads Mikkelsen and Judi Dench.
Recently assigned double-0 status Bond hunts down a terrorist
financier.
With the first outing
for Craig as Bond the film series took a turn to the more series and
darker side of the character that has not really been seen since
Dalton and early Connery films. The script adds some character depth
to the proceedings but does not really hit the heights of Skyfall
(2012) or the Lazenby film. As with all Bond films there are some
great locations and the early action sequence on a building site is
the highlight in that respect, some of the poker scenes however live
up to the tradition of Hollywood not really getting the game.
4/5
