Daniel Craig stars as "007" James Bond, the smoothest, sexiest, most lethal agent on Her Majesty's Secret Service in "Casino Royale." Based on the first Bond book written by Ian Fleming, the story, which has never been told on film until now, recounts the making of the world's greatest secret agent.
James Bond's first "007" mission leads him to Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), banker to the world's terrorists. In order to stop him, and bring down the terrorist network, Bond must beat Le Chiffre in a high-stakes poker game at Casino Royale. Bond is initially annoyed when a beautiful British Treasury official, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), is assigned to deliver his stake for the game and watch over the government's money. But, as Bond and Vesper survive a series of lethal attacks by Le Chiffre and his henchmen, a mutual attraction develops leading them both into further danger and events that will shape Bond's life forever.

daniel craig's first outing as OO7 is quite ok and infact it is a relief. however, as usual, daniel too does not measure up to the definitive bond Sean Connery. the first lacuna is his height and then the charm. though a fictional character, still connery's vision lingers. the love scenes in this movie are not so good for a spy outfit. daniel somehow lacks style. in many scenes he does not look as bond but reminds other actors like bruce willis, jackie chan, steve mcqueen or russel crowe likes. on the hard edge he is better than brosnan or moore. i my opinion, next to connery, Timothy dalton's portrayal was believable.In India, only connery movies (including never say...) have a re-run value while other's bond movies do not enjoy a re-run.we wait and see, for how many movies craig can withstand!
