    ( 6.0 ) -- Not sure what the high praise is about. Having just read the book I decided to give it a go. Tbh the book was the weakest of the three I've read so far. (The other two being Goldfinger & Diamonds are Forever) I didn't feel like the plot of why Bond was going after Le Chiffre in the first place was well illustrated in the film. I did like the new versions of old side characters. I don't think the love for Vesper is very believable in the time frame given (although that was a shortcoming of the book as well). I don't know, it just doesn't sit that well with me. There's much better action films out there.

    Casino Royale is the perfect representation of a series reboot - it literally adapts every element and character from the series to the new generation, in a brilliant way!

    The story is actually believeable, as far as Bond stories can be, with some rich character development and understandable motivations. Bond himself is really well made, i've heard this is the closest Bond ever was to mirroring Ian Fleming's original character, and I really love it. He actually has a backstory in this! For once we actually get to see inside the character, how he really is and understand what he goes through. He's tough, cold hearted, but also a funny and charming man with some extreme talents up his sleeve.

    This is, no doubt, the best directed Bond movie ever made. Truly a "punch in the face" after the dreadful Die Another Day, everything was really well shot and the screenplay was very tight. This is the movie the series needed: a fresh, beautiful reboot that doesn't suck for once...

    Finally, a James Bond who bleeds when bad guys cut him, scars when the love of his life hurts him and wins the day with brute force and smarts rather than gadgets. It sounds blasphemous, but Daniel Craig might be the best Bond ever. That's right, Lazenby fans.
