Casino Royale


Having never been fan enough to rush to the cinema on Bond release date, I was surprised that the hype for the latest instalment was sufficient to reverse the trend. And the verdict? It was worth the effort.

Craig is mesmerising as the first blond incarnation of 007 and he really seems to have found his niche, slipping into the role like a comfortable pair of well-worn slippers. It helps that we're given a taste of the human side of the lethal killing machine, as Bond falls in love with the flirtatiously sardonic Vesper Lynd and thrill-a-minute adventure ensues.
