| Editorial Reviews: Product Description Casino Royale introduces James Bond before he holds his license to kill. But Bond is no less dangerous and with two professional assassinations in quick succession he is elevated to "00" status. "M" (Judi Dench) head of the British Secret Service sends the newly-promoted 007 on his first mission that takes him to Madagascar the Bahamas and eventually leads him to Montenegro to face Le Chiffre a ruthless financier under threat from his terrorist clientele who is attempting to restore his funds in a high-stakes poker game at the Casino Royale. "M" places Bond under the watchful eye of the Treasury official Vesper Lynd. At first skeptical of what value Vesper can provide Bond's interest in her deepens as they brave danger together. Le Chiffre's cunning and cruelty come to bear on them both in a way Bond could never imagine and he learns his most important lesson: Trust no one.System Requirements:Runtime: 144 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: PG - 13 UPC: 043396148598 Manufacturer No: 14859 Amazon.com The most successful invigoration of a cinematic franchise since Batman Begins, Casino Royale offers a new Bond identity. Based on the Ian Fleming novel that introduced Agent 007 into a Cold War world, Casino Royale is the most brutal and viscerally exciting James Bond film since Sean Connery left Her Majesty's Secret Service. Meet the new Bond; not the same as the old Bond. Daniel Craig gives a galvanizing performance as the freshly minted double-0 agent. Suave, yes, but also a "blunt instrument," reckless, and possessed with an ego that compromises his judgment during his first mission to root out the mastermind behind an operation that funds international terrorists. In classic Bond film tradition, his global itinerary takes him to far-flung locales, including Uganda, Madagascar, the Bahamas (that's more like it), and Montenegro, where he is pitted against his nemesis in a poker game, with hundreds of millions in the pot. The stakes get even higher when Bond lets down his "armor" and falls in love with Vesper (Eva Green), the ravishing banker's representative fronting him the money.

Non stop action, vivid color and great sound.  BRING BACK PIERCE BROSNAN, PRONTO!!! August 9, 2008SouthernGirl Karen (Dallas, TX USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful I'm boycotting any more Bond movies unil the powers-that-be behind this franchise come to their senses & bring back the sexiest Bond ever, & the only one I'll ever be interested in, PIERCE BROSNAN! Daniel Craig is a boring dolt, a dud, & he'll never match up to Pierce Brosnan. I WAS SO HAPPY THAT THIS MOVIE WAS BEAT OUT of the #1 SPOT AT THE BOX OFFICE BY AN ANIMATED PENGUIN ON OPENING WEEKEND, HAPPY FEET--I THINK THAT SAYS IT ALL!! I hope the right people are reading this review: WHAT YOU DID TO PIERCE BROSNAN WAS TERRIBLY WRONG, & YOU'VE GOT IT WRONG: HE'S DEFINITELY NOT TOO OLD TO STILL BE BOND, HOW RIDICULOUS!! BRING BACK PIERCE, PRONTO! Sean who? August 8, 2008Dana Dyer Pierson 1 out of 2 found this review helpful I'll admit it: I used to think that Sean Connery was the only actor worthy of the role, so I was dubious going in. Approximately nine frames into Daniel Craig's performance, I suddenly forgot that any other human had ever attempted the role. Here is a James Bond that we can be AFRAID of. His bond is feral; a predator on the hunt. He's human, yet more than that. He's the first person to inhabit the role who really telegraphs the requisite amorality of the professional killer, but not at the complete expense of his humanity. He's intelligent, driven, and ruthless when the situation calls for it. He's a Bond who made me CARE. The others played Bond as a sort of superhuman killer lovebot; Craig's bond is new and fresh and flawed and very much, a dangerous work in progress. I can't WAIT to see where they take this character. And, folks, on top of all that skill and presence, Craig makes you weak in the knees, too. Most will fawn over the bathing suit scene, but for this viewer, the tailor who crafted Bond's tuxedo should be awarded sainthood. Yummy. Naughty bit of crumpet, that. It's a wonderful blend of Bond-style fantasy, action, brutality (you'll never look at Grandma's cane-seat chair in quite the same way, I guarantee), international intrigue, and of course, romance. I LOVED this movie for it's brains (and beauty).  Didn't anyone question the timeline? July 21, 2008S. Otey (Keansburg, USA) 0 out of 6 found this review helpful I think most people was caught up with the whole "Bond" thing, new actor, etc. and didn't notice some real big "faux pas". Although there has never been real dates set, and you can't just deal with the making of the first Bond movie (Dr. No), there were events that gave you an opportunity to know approximately what decade if nothing else you were in. This Bond, which is supposed to depict the "beginning" for James, has several references to things that happened more recently than the older Bond movies indicated but mostly, has M making the biggest mistake in her speech when she speaks of "9/11". Please, didn't anyone hear that? I don't usually notice mistakes on the part of the writers, wardrobe people, set designers or actors when I see a movie for the first time (unless it is sooooo bad)because I am intent on the movie and sometimes I never pick up anything unless it is pointed out to me, but this was so blatant that when I heard it my mouth dropped open. C'mon folks, don't tell me that you can actually put that reference in the beginning of the James Bond '007 saga? S from NY A more contemporary Bond character... July 15, 2008TTQC Driver (Sausalito, CA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful I am still partial to the Sean Connery version of James Bond, although maybe some of the dialogue remarks were a bit too glib. This bond is tougher. More amoral and detached. It is much more updated to modern action film stereotype, but still pretty well put together and there is some semblance of character development. I am not sorry I bought this video, but I have to admit it won't get as much play time as say "The Third Man" or "Michael Clayton" or "Day of the Jackal" or "Mancurian Candidate" or "Gorky Park" or some other suspense type films. | ||||||||||||||||
