This move can fight for the Best Bond Film.
This is unlike any Bond you have ever seen before other than the Dr. No by Connery.
Craig displays the most intriguing Bond ever. This Bond/character has alot of contradictions about himself and Craig can play fight sceens believeably unlike many of the previous Bonds. He's built fot it. He's brutal, cold yet he shows depth with the witty banter, sly remarks, and love, betrayal, remorse but he still keeps within the characters in control of his emotions, calm cool and a steely hand of cold retribution. He's freaking a badass and cocky as hell. He bleeds, gets tortured and is tough as hell. He's focused on his objective at all times. He's freaking brillant.
Right up there with FRWL Goldfinger and much better than Dr. No., however it captures Connery's first 2/3 of Dr. No in general.
Opening sequence is brutal, and very real. A realistic fist fight and heads being slammed into to toilets in black and white. interlayed with his next kill in a more efficient manner.
The chase scene is truly amazing. Bond using his mind over the faster, super agile enemy. The casino play was great, the hands all completely improbable but great nonetheless. Some great one liners, but here they are justily earned, and you'll know what I mean when you see it.
Airport chase is excellent.
They do the tux thing and his final suit looks great; unlike alot of other bonds, he is also seen in more practical wear.
I never wanted to see a Brosnan Bond twice as they always dragged and became over the top and boring other than maybe goldeneye. Also, PB would never be believeable doing the hand to hand and athletic fight sequenced.
But this movie is riveting. Craig reinvents a cultural icon from a joke to one bad mf who is developing a taste for the best in life and women as short term engagements but never to be developed. M's line is nicely done by saying "Bond you don't trust anyone, do you?" "You're learning"
He even comments after being betrayed by the women he confesess to love right from the book as coldly stating, "The ***** is dead"
The torture scene is unbelieveable and Craig unexpectedly delivers some of the funniest lines during this scene, and if you are a guy, you will freaking cringe when you see this, as they don't hold anything back. It's brutal.
The last scene is the only time you hear the theme, and the classic introduction as the unknown criminal crawls towards his feet after Bond just put a high powered bullett thru his leg.
Great entertainment.
