Casino Royale (2-Disc Widescreen Edition) description
The most successful invigoration of a cinematic franchise since Batman Begins, Casino Royale offers a new Bond identity. Based on the Ian Fleming novel that introduced Agent 007 into a Cold War world, Casino Royale is the most brutal and viscerally exciting James Bond film since Sean Connery left Her Majesty's Secret Service. Meet the new Bond; not the same as the old Bond. Daniel Craig gives a galvanizing performance as the freshly minted double-0 agent. Suave, yes, but also a "blunt instrument," reckless, and possessed with an ego that compromises his judgment during his first mission to root out the mastermind behind an operation that funds international terrorists. In classic Bond film tradition, his global itinerary takes him to far-flung locales, including Uganda, Madagascar, the Bahamas (that's more like it), and Montenegro, where he is pitted against his nemesis in a poker game, with hundreds of millions in the pot. The stakes get even higher when Bond lets down his "armor" and falls in love with Vesper (Eva Green), the ravishing banker's representative fronting him the money.

For longtime fans of the franchise, Casino Royale offers some retro kicks. Bond wins his iconic Astin-Martin at the gaming table, and when a bartender asks if he wants his martini "shaken or stirred," he disdainfully replies, "Do I look like I give a damn?" There's no Moneypenny or "Q," but Dame Judi Dench is back as the exasperated M, who one senses, admires Bond's "bloody cheek." A Bond film is only as good as its villain, and Mads Mikkelsen as Le Chiffre, who weeps blood, is a sinister dandy. From its punishing violence and virtuoso action sequences to its romance, Casino Royale is a Bond film that, in the words of one character, makes you feel it, particularly during an excruciating torture sequence. Double-0s, Bond observes early on, "have a short life expectancy." But with Craig, there is new life in the old franchise yet, as well as genuine anticipation for the next one when, at last, the signature James Bond theme kicks in following the best last line ever in any Bond film. To quote Goldie Hawn in Private Benjamin, now I know what I've been faking all these years. --Donald Liebenson

Bond gets the royal treatment

As a Xbox 360 HD DVD drive fanboy owner, Casino Royale was one of the few HD films I was envious for that was Blu Ray exclusive. After hearing that Sony pretty much bought off the majority of the movie studios and thus the HD format war was over, I gave in and bought the best BD player worth the money, a PS3. Casino Royale was my first BD film I played on my PS3 and boy was I happy with my purchase. I had seen Casino Royale on standard DVD and loved the movie, the only Bond film I really, really loved. It reminded me of what they did with Batman Begins, in other words start fresh with a more realistic and gritty feel. But don't get me wrong, all the good things that make a Bond film great are still there, beautiful, exotic locations with equally beautiful and exotic women. The image quality in BD looked stunning, especially during the tropical beach and jungle enviroments. I thought I would hate Daniel Craig as 007 but quite the contrary, he's the best Bond ever. I read somewhere that Craig might be this generation's Steve McQueen, I can totally see that. I am looking forward to the next Bond film.
