Casino Royale

Recommended Posts

Some of you know I'm always a few months behind the rest of you when it comes to movies. I rented this and watched it last night.

The acting? okay. The action? pretty good. The editing and how the story flows? A major headache to follow! B|

This is not one of the better Bond films, IMO... [:/]

i liked the opening chase sequence. better than the usual car chase.



Fuck yeah... that was unbelievable. I know there's a term for that kind of activity but damned if I can remember what it's called. But in real life, chases involve leaps of one story, maybe two at the most.

Le Parkour, or free running for the non-frenchies;)

But seriously though, you thought Casino Royale wasn't one of the best Bond movies? What the hell is wrong with you!:D

It wasn't in the sense that it was hard to follow the plot. The rest of the movie was good.

And yes, Parkour, that's the term I remember... Crazy shit!

I got a laugh out of the scene where the black dude jumps through an opening in the wall 6 feet off the floor and Bond just smashes through the drywall. :D

Strangely, while I am actually not a Bond fan I quite enjoyed this one. I guess I just liked the fact that they changed things up so much.
My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Wasn't as bad as the previous ones, blooming satellites that use the suns energy to blow up the world, invisible cars!!!!

Blimey they do get ridiculous.!!!



Good point. However, the holding his breath long enough to dive down and save his girl from the elevator car after she'd already drowned was ridiculous. Looked like he'd exhaled most of his air already.

And the Parkour chase at the construction area with the cranes was off the wall too, but you gotta have some craziness! :D

Agreed. They did a couple things that pizzed me off for a Bond movie.

1st James Bond should not look beat up and have all those cuts and bruises even after taking a serious azz kicking and most importantly - YOU DON"T BUST 007's BALLS. I was actually pizzed off at that part and they could have had more gadgets and gizmos.

I want Pierce Bronson back!
