General Comments
Being a great Bond fan from a early age, I have seen every single Bond movie, and yes I do remember the original Casino Royale with David Niven and Woody Allen (a fun movie, but never a true Bond movie). As we all know, everyone always says there has never been a better Bond than Sean, because of his rough no nonsense playing of the part. However, although early days, I think we may have found the true essence of a true spy in Daniel Craig. He plays the part with real man appeal, and a ruthlessness missing in the last two decades of Bond's. Oh, also, he gets hurt and is seen to get hurt. This Bond is nearer the spy of Callan, played by Edward Woodward in the seventies; a bit seedy, but a man you can depend on to get the job done any way possible.



If you are a true Bond/spy lover, then this new Bond is for you. If not, try Harrison Ford. I think they are bringing him out with his Zimmer frame for another outing of Indiana Jones. Well done to the makers of Bond. See it now while it's at the cinema, as DVD's are never really the same.
