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.

Summary: Casino Royale a Winner
Comment: This 007 movie is a winner. The new James Bond (Daniel Craig) is spectacular and compliments the prior 007 movies. A must see and must have movie
Customer Rating:
Summary: Pretty Good
Comment: Although I used to be a big fan of the James Bond franchise, I had not watched any in several years prior to this one. They had just seemed to have lost some of the pizzaz for me.
This one features a new Bond (Daniel Craig) who does quite well. He is a bit more physical than we have seen previously. That is not necessarily a bad thing. This is actually a film version of the first Ian Fleming novel. Bond is not as sophisticated or seasoned as in others in this series as he is supposed to be newly promoted to 00 status.
It has many features that are common to the Bond flicks - action, suspense, and interesting technology.
This is a fun show and worth watching.

Summary: Very Good Movie
Comment: Casino Royale is an excellent movie, especially on Blu-ray, and Sony has done an amazing job at making a near perfect disc. In my personal opinion the movie plays a little long towards the end, so that's what I gave it a 4 out of 5, and not a perfect score.
Danial Craig is amazing as a younger Bond who is just starting off his career and hasn't had the time or experience to mold him into the suave/sophisticated James Bond as of yet. This lends to much more action in the new movies, with far less gadgets and Judo chops :)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Mind-boggling
Comment: The most action-packed Bond film to date. Daniel Craig is superb. And as for the blue-ray edition of "Casino Royale", well, this is the definitive blue-ray film. If you need a reason to go blue-ray, just watch "Casino Royale" in blue-ray. It speaks for itself.

Summary: Casino Royale
Comment: Pretty good but I don't understand why James Bond fell so in love with Vesper. Wasn't really believable. But it's James Bond and I do love these movies!!!
