Genre:	Action & Adventure

Casino Royale 007 or should I call it James Bond Reboot? 'Coz the game table scenes are not any longer than the end credits.

New Bond (Daniel Craig), New Look (Blonde), New Style (Shoot 1st ask Qns later). I'm not a big Bond fan but I do love action flicks. My impressions for the few Bonds I know are not very deep.
Sean seemed like the Smart one, always thinking of ways outta sticky situations.
George is the Sad one.
Roger is the Calm one, so calm, it somehow slow him down...in every aspect
Timothy is the Unlucky one, got killed by his own Licence.
Pierce is the perfect Gentleman, so gentle, he will only negotiate with villians & not hurt'em.
Daniel is Cunning & Deadly, he looks like he can really kill someone.

This is about Bond's early years in MI6 as a "00". So the writers are free to retool him. Made him more agile, cunnin', deadly, humanly. Lots of chase scenes! *nope~ not car chase~ I'm so glad they got rid of it~!* A foot chase will get you all excited! Lots of neutralizin'! Lots of witty sarcasm! Lots of love...!? & lastly, lots of plots, felt like a 3-in-1 movie.

Like I wrote earlier, this is all new, so some of the old Bond thingies are gone...namely, all them cool gadgets from Q. Which made this film very much like any other action movies such as True Lies, Mr & Mrs Smith or Bourne Identity. But this may make it more appealing to non-Bond fans.
