Just as Daniel Craig's run as James Bond comes to a close, we celebrate his beginning. Still one of Craig's best Bond movies, and would be ranked in the upper half of ranking the James Bond movies for a lot of people. Craig was a controversial choice when the movie first came out, but he proved his worth with this film and his subsequent Bond films. Director Martin Campbell creates another entertaining James Bond film like he did with "Goldeneye". Leonard Maltin Movie Guide Review: Casino Royale (2006) - 3 out of 4 stars"The James Bond franchise goes back to its roots with this installment, which shows how the secret agent got his license to kill and pits him against a banker funding worldwide terrorist groups. A bit overextended, but also refreshingly tough-minded, with some terrific set pieces (including an adrenaline-pumping opening sequence) and a worthy love interest in Green. Best of all, Craig (in his debut as 007) makes for a lean, mean, surprisingly human Bond, so good as to rival even our memories of Sean Connery. Filmed before (as a spoof) in 1967. Followed by QUANTUM OF SOLACE. Super 35."   |

Your first Bond? How old are you? 33. I saw it in the theater when I was 18. 18 is young but still a bit old to have watched your first Bond movie ever. |

In my top three OO7 movies. For two very good reasons I'm guessing.

I have no hesitation calling it the best Bond movie. Happy Birthday, Casino Royale. Yeah, it’s that good. From Russia with Love was my favorite until this was released. |

In my top three OO7 movies. You think that malnourished anorexic actress Eva Green is better than Honor Blackman, Berenice Marlohe, Izabella Scoropcu, Denise Richards, Tanya Roberts, Ursula Andress, Rosamund Pike, Carey Lowell, Halle Berry and Olga Kurylenko? Seriously? You're mad. |

In my top three OO7 movies. Izabella Scoropco alone is better than her. That's a very deceptive photo her breasts weren't like that in the actual film. She's got a flat chest. |

9/10. Second favorite Bond film after Skyfall. Really? Bond films are defined by their villains so you think Javier Bardem's cringeworthy potrayal of Bond's sex pest was the best the Bond films could offer? If Skyfall is your favourite? And what about the Connery films. |

Best. Bond. Girl. Ever. (And the movie was pretty damn good too). You think that malnourished anorexic actress Eva Green is better than Honor Blackman, Berenice Marlohe, Izabella Scoropcu, Denise Richards, Tanya Roberts, Ursula Andress, Rosamund Pike, Carey Lowell, Halle Berry and Olga Kurylenko? Seriously? You're mad.

Yes but you stated that Skyfall is your favourite I'm trying to understand why because the villain wasn't very threatening. I take it those Connery films you like take a back seat to the Craig ones? |

Well, I hope you're sitting because I actually thought Bardem did a great job and yes, as I said before, I rank SF and CR higher.
