The name's Bond... James Bond.

Bond is re-invented for the 21st century; stepping into the shoes of the suave quintessential secret agent, Daniel Craig surpasses all expectations and reinvigorates a tried and trusted franchise.
Grittier, more vulnerable and evidently colder than an icebox in Alaska, Bond is given a major overhaul and the evidence is there for all to see.
Opening with one of the finest action scenes ever seen on film, Casino Royale is an intriguing, gripping and hard-hitting film, which has three dimensional characters, glamorous locations and sublime direction.
One of the best Bond films ever, it's only a shame they went and blew it with Quantum of Solace.
