Casino royale is the most realistic Bond Film yet. Actors are incredible and the story line is great.
Daniel Craig is definitely perfect for this role. He has the looks, the charisma and the talent to pull it off. He's physically fit to do incredible fight sequences and stunts. He also gave Bond a softer side, which I rarely see from the other ones. My favorite James Bond so far.
Evaluation of other James Bond:
Sean Connery - a gentleman, sexy, and smooth (the gestures, not the chest). I like his films especially Dr. No. I think nothing can top Ursula's bikini scene.
Roger Moore - probably the most charismatic and humorous bond yet. My only problem with his potrayal of bond is that most of the time He looked like a chauvinist pig. His leading ladies are useless, needs to be saved a lot, he slaps them, and force them to have sex with him.
Timothy Dalton - he has the chauvinist attitude similar to Roger Moore. What makes it worst is that he doesn't have the humor or charisma to balance it. My least favorite Bond.
Pierce Brosnan - painfully good looking. He has the charm and the talent to pull of a James Bond character. His leading ladies and Villainess kick ass, Halle Berry, Famke Janseen, Sophie Marceau, and Michelle Yeoh anyone?
