Casino Royale

Wow. Not only is it the best film I've seen this year, it's one of the best I've seen ever! Everything works in this movie - Daniel Craig is perfect, Eva Green is wonderful, even the title song and opening credits are amazing. And no silly special effects or ridiculously unbelievable stunts - finally we've exorcised the trauma of Die Another Day

I just saw this tonight - what a great ride! Daniel Craig makes an awesome Bond and definitely one of the sexiest I've seen. Rawr!

He's fantastic - apart from the looks of course (those eyes!), I thought he had a kind of stillness or calmness about him that really made the whole scenario make sense to me...I can't explain very well, hope you know what I'm getting at!

I kid you not about the tissue. Seriously! I'll say no more...:D

Yeah we saw that Film 2006 yesterday, and we've seen a couple of other programmes as well which gave us very high hopes for this movie - and we weren't disappointed! We honestly couldn't think of anything about it that we didn't like - and bear in mind that hubby is a HUGE Bond fan and VERY critical. Go! Now!

Hi Violet...
I reckon this movie will be on our own hit list of films-to-see-next...judging from your and other people's reactions, it sounds like a FAB movie !!

I did have a little look at the Premiere shenanigins over on my Fashion Journal, in case you missed it...Daniel Craig looked very butch, and the other guests did the event proud...all in all, quite a night from all accounts...
I did have a chuckle over the fact that Kate Moss was desperate VERY keen to go to the Premiere, had her evening gown all picked out, ready, but she wasn't on the guest list, apparently becuase she and Pete Doherty aren't considered suitable guests to meet Her Maj, at a Royal Premiere...

Perhaps she'll think twice, next time, about being caught with half a straw of cocaine up her nose, by the Press....

LOL! I hadn't heard that!

Glad to hear it's great! Daniel Craig looks good in the trailer. I like that he has a kind of brutal quality, which IMO was the secret of Sean Connery's appeal. Iron fist in velvet glove and all that. :)

That is it exactly. I've never taken much notice of him before when I've seen him in stuff, but he really was perfect in this - honestly, I can't imagine anyone else in that role now. Pierce who? :D
