A lot worse than batman begins imo. Batman had just the right amount of comics feel without being over the top - they went back to realism without loosing the batman feel.

Casino Royale was like some action-drama thriller flick that didn't seem like a bond movie at all. The guy is far from smooth and suave... he's just not bond. Far cry from Sean Connery imo.

That's how it's supposed to be though. He's supposed to grow into his character. He's not smooth yet. He makes more mistakes. He doesn't even know what he favorite drink is.

What are you talking about it has Sony cramed?

I'm saying the Sony product placement was very obnoxious

There is a full frontal nude scene! Go see it!

Yeah, I was a little surprised that Daniel Craig would allow himself to be in a full frontal nude scene. I'm not used to seeing that.

Yeah, that was my biggest gripe too.

First 2 acts are great. 3rd act was WTF 😕

QFT. It slows down and you're like "is this the end?" but then the action rises again but not that much so it feels a little weird. The OP should definitely go see it though.

as long as he grows into the bond that chases women and not woman. this one was way too much of a love story.
