Casino Royale

8/10

Casino Royale is the newest James Bond movie but takes place before all the others. Daniel Craig is the new James Bond and a good one at that. I personally have never been a huge Bond fan but from what of the other movies I have seen Craig is only topped by Sean Connery. In Casino Royale Bond is a somewhat inexperienced agent that uses more violence than the usual suave skillful way. The plot is Bond has to take on a terrorist organziation. Over the course of the movie he fights a lot of bad guys, competes in a high stakes poker game, and of course gets the ladies. Typical to Bond films there’s dirty tricks and double crosses. Although the story is somewhat cliche and predictable the scenery, action, and acting more than makes up for it. This site reviews Casino Royale as well with many people’s inputs.  http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/casino_royale/ I agree with how they say Craig is a great new Bond. The action, is fast and brutal which fits him. Craig in my book can be the new Bond.

MPAA Rating:

PG-13 for intense sequences of violent action, a scene of torture, sexual content and nudity.
