Casino Royale

[Albereth]

Seriously good - best Bond movie I've seen (and I've seen them all). Very little gadgetery - lots of action. And it is long - the movie that is - I cannot comment on the media speculation regarding Daniel Craig's bits.

[Onyx]

i agree with Albereth 100% that this was a very good movie (i too have seen them all). i went with an open mind not knowing what to expect of Daniel Craig and i must say that i am not totally dissappointed, in fact, as the movie progressed, he kinda grew on me.

there are a lot of very good action scenes (and a heartstopping torture scene).

i think i will remain a bond fan till the day i die. :D

[Bass]

Hmmm .. a bit of pleasurably anticipation rises for this movie .. was expecting another ho-hum Bond film I must say ... :)

[FeralBanana]

So is it worth going to see? Good show for what kinda crowd (buncha frenz, 1 or 2, someone special etc?)

EDIT: Bleak! I loved the cool gadgets! :p

Sounds good. Will hopefully be able to make it to the theatre in time.

You'll need to take your parents - there is an age restriction. No under 13s, 13-15 must be accompanied by an adult

[Sminty]

Awww :( I bet my parents won't let me go...maybe I can sneak out.

[FeralBanana]

:rofl: Good luck with that Sminty.. You sure they'll let you in though? I mean you've got the people at the ticket office AND at the entrance to get through! :eek:

[Sminty]

Good point...will have to get me one of those fake id thingies and prolly a fake beard just to make sure....no anybody who will let me stand on their shoulders....oh! and someone with a really long overcoat?

[Drusky]

Ag damn, I feel my expectations rising already... gonna be disappointed now I know it... never shoulda come in here!

[scarralot]

Just watched it. Who wants to hear how it ends ?:D
Aaaahhhhh a macho male lead for a change *sighs dreamily*
Does the guy who runs away from bond in the beginning belong in an x-men movie rather ... or Jackie Chan? The man has some very intricate moves :hmmm:

[Stool]

that movement was insane yeah, spiderman wannabe
amazing ending

[WondaWoman]

blah! I thought it was hilarious! laughed almost through the entire movie...was like a james bond spoof :rofl:

[scarralot]

Spoof? SPOOF?! Daniel Graig's tightly tuned but tawks!
IMO all the other James Bond movies are spoofs of this one.:p

This one... this one... is prreciousss to me.....
:D

[Stool]

WondaWoman just sour cos I'm ignoring her !again! so now she ripping my posts

No worries Scar, the precious is safe from her

[Onyx]

I totally agree with you Scarralot!
I think Daniel Craig makes for a very worthy successor... he definately has all the right bits ;)
.... and the stunts were excellent too ...

[Drusky]

Enjoyed the movie. Best part was the chase scene at the beginning.

[WondaWoman]

:gno: you girls just like seeing him in that itsy bitsy blue thing he was wearing...pffftt!!

:rollani: i didn't notice you were ignoring me stoolie woolie :ras:

Finally a Jimmy Bond who is tough-like-Sean-Connery's-toe-nails! Remember Roger "Hairless Chest and Androgenous Lisp" Moore? Or George "Wheeeee! Look I'm a Fire-Engine" Lazenby? Timothy "Mumble, mumble, BANG! BANG! Mumble, mumble" Dalton? Pierce "Ooooh, Arrgh!" Brosnan wasn't too bad, but Jimmy B is finally tough-like-Neddy's-armpits again!

[Onyx]

:gyes:

You took the words right out of my mouth, Neddy! :rollani:

P.S. how tough are your armpits, btw?

[N3ddy]

They are tough like Punky's in-grown toe-nails! :boxing:

[Buka001]

A refreshing change to the usual Bond movie formula. I enjoyed it!!

[FeralBanana]

Must still see it :(

[Drusky]

Just close your eyes for the nutcracker scene. You shouldn't be exposed to such horrorsm at such a tender age.

Caught one of the last screenings on Saturday. I really enjoyed it. Daniel Craig makes for good Bond, and I enjoyed the lack of some old Bond clichees (Martini, gadgets, although for the next one I want to see some cool gadgets again ;) ). Bond solves problems with his brains and not just with firepower, and the supporting cast does a great job. The only thing that made me shudder slightly were the corny lines Bond delivers to Vesper (where he tells her that he loves her). That was just a bit outside the scope. Other than that, great movie and a worthy addition to the series.

[FeralBanana]

I saw it and although I'm not going to post the whole big review I must say I DID enjoy the parkour/freerunning at the beginning :p
