I know I’m a little late on this one, but I didn’t see it in theatres. Last night, I watched it with some of my friends from my dorm. I must say it’s a pretty kickass movie.<\/p>\n

Casino Royale<\/a> is the 21st James Bond Film, and it was the first one to star Daniel Craig<\/a>. I must say that Craig is definitely an extremely good 007. The movie starts out with Bond killing a rouge MI6 section chief. He then gets tangled up in a bomb plot, and is soon thrust into a poker tournament for the “high rollers.” The buy-in is $10 million, and many of the players there are terrorists hoping to use the prize money ($150 million) to fund their activities. Bond enters to win the money away from these unsavory characters.<\/p>\n

The acting of this movie was very good. Bond was excellent, the “Bond girl(s)” w(as\/ere) hot, as it should be. The music was superb. In fact, it may be the first James Bond soundtrack to grace my music collection, if I can find it. The action sequences were tight, well-filmed, and exciting (especially the opening one… the henchman was freaking pimp, and he was clearly a free runner<\/a>).<\/p>\n

I must say, that Casino Royale was one of the best James Bond films I’ve seen in recent years. The plot was a bit shakey at points, but overall, it was an extremely good movie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
