Casino Royale


Best Bond flick yet! Great stunts, superb story line. I still find it amazing how guys with machine guns can hit everything in sight yet still miss their primary target. Lucky break for 007 though........

I hear is great and Craig is definatly the best actor to take the role to date. However im a bit daunted by the publicised romance theme in it which is not what i want in a film of this genre

The romance isn't as big a deal as the reviews probably made it out to be (haven't read any so I'm not sure what they are saying). There is romantic involvement in this movie and I don't think that has ever been seen in a Bond flick before, but its not like you'll be asking for kleenex to mop up your weeping eyes! lol

That's great Ironman, i'm going to watch it definitely. I saw the preview before seeing Borat, and i thought to myself "hey.. this doesn't actually look that bad" just I thought the actor didn't look like Pierce Brosnan, but if you say it's great i'm sure it is then! Must go out and see it. :

The actor does a great job, and definately makes a good bond. and the opening chase seen is unbelievable...the stunts are awesome...whoever that stunt man was that did all that is the craziest, most talented, most agile man Ive ever seen.

Understatement of the century! I think you'd be hard-pressed finder a cooler, more iconic movie character in the history of film than James Bond. But on the other hand, I'm a junkie, I love all he Bond movies. I've seen "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" for God's sake. Plus, any movie series that has lasted 44 years through 21 films and 6 main character casting changes is PROBABLY a worth the cose of a ticket.

Again, I'm a junkie!

That free-running stuff he was doing is called Parkour. Sebastien Foucan is the parkour guy. Here's a little video on Sebastien:

Here's some other stuff about him:

If you search for parkour on youtube, you get some amazing videos, too. Cool stuff.
