Film 288/365, Day 319/365 – Casino Royale

Bond is back with a blast.  This is absolutely my favourite Bond film, it works well as a film on its own and as part of the franchise.  It is gritty, tough and beautifully filmed.  Daniel Craig was fantastic as Bond, giving him depth whilst maintaining a steely exterior.  Fantastic action which gets better as the film goes on.  Puts the shame of Die Another Day firmly in the past, it’s almost like it didn’t happen... almost!

Synopsis:  James Bond has just been given double 0 status and a license to kill and he’s already going after the banker for all of the world’s terrorists and dictators.  To succeed Bond will have to better Le Chiffre in a high stakes poker match whilst making sure he stays alive.
