James Bond's first 007 mission takes him to Madagascar, where he is to spy on a terrorist Mollaka. Not everything goes as planned and Bond decides to investigate, independently of the MI6 agency, in o...( read more  read more... )rder to track down the rest of the terrorist cell. Following a lead to the Bahamas, he encounters Dimitrios and his girlfriend, Solange. He learns that Dimitrios is involved with Le Chiffre, banker to the world's terrorist organizations. Secret Service intelligence reveals that Le Chiffre is planning to raise money in a high-stakes poker game in Montenegro at Le Casino Royale. MI6 assigns 007 to play against him, knowing that if Le Chiffre loses, it will destroy his organization. 'M' places Bond under the watchful eye of the beguiling Vesper Lynd. At first skeptical of what value Vesper can provide, Bond's interest in her deepens as they brave danger together--and even torture at the hands of Le Chiffre. In Montenegro, Bond allies himself with Matthis, MI6's local field agent, and Felix Leiter, who is representing the interests of the CIA. The marathon game proceeds with dirty tricks and violence, raising the stakes beyond blood money and reaching a terrifying climax.

    The best Bond film ever. A truly fantastic film. It's brilliant, dazzling and unforgettable. A classic. Director, Martian Campbell first introduced us to Pierce Brosnan as Bond back in 1995 and now again succeeds in 2006 with Daniel Craig. Daniel Craig is terrific, he's the tough...( read more)est, coolest and best Bond yet. A spectacular, adrenaline-fulled action-packed extravaganza. An unstoppable, unmissable and amazingly explosive thrill-machine. Great stunts, clever tricks and non-stop excitement. One incredible action sequence after another. Great chases, great fights and great effects. Smart, crackling, eye popping and exhilarating. It's awesomely entertaining action movie fun. Pure high-octane, stylish, thrilling, unforgettable and pulse-pounding cant beat entertainment. This movie will take your breath away. A wickedly fun adventure ride. This just keeps on getting better. James Bond is back and better than ever. It adds new depth to the character as we have not seen him before.

    Shallow but exciting and engaging from frame one. Daniel Craig makes the 007 character more visceral and layered than ever before and elevates the film to a higher level than it would have achieved with a lesser actor. Veteran Bond director Martin Campbell skillfully reboots the ...( read more)franchise with its greatest installment yet.

    Casino Royale bored me. Unimpressed to say the least! It just might be the only time you'll hear me say that Quentin Tarrintino should have directed it (seeing as it was his idea in the first place)

    Movie was awesome. I live my life modeled after this man.

    This is one of the best Bond films ever done to date. This has to be the best somewhat reboot to a series made. Daniel Craig is just awesome and he really brought Bond to a new level! He was willing to get down and dirty and that is what Bond needed for this film. I am glad Danie...( read more)l Craig was willing to get fit for this because it turned out amazingly! I found the script very well written and we get to see how Bond became who we have known him to be. The casting for all the characters was very well done. I hope QoS is just as good or even better.

    I cannot believe how sexy and beautiful this man is!
  • February 4, 2010
    The best thing that ever happened to James Bond. It's without a doubt the best entry in the series and took it to places I never thought it would go. It's got all the things you love: charisma, adventure, suspense, diabolical villains. However, it also is written and acted so wel...( read more)l that you don't feel you're watching a spy genre film, there's nothing typical about it.

    Why I do not like these new Bonds, is specially because of this:
    - In Finnish "Showailua"
    - Not right in time, wasn't it supposed to show Bond as he new in the carreer? As he became 00-agent? And wasn't it supposed reflect the 1950s? Those times there were NO mobilephones and flat computers!!!! Come on...are you serious....walkman mobiles? This movie is just for advertising!!!
    - And Felix Leiter is not black.
