Casino Royale

Last night we finally went to see the latest James Bond film, Casino Royale. I enjoyed it. The action was slick, the excitement was well-maintained and the movie keps interest going for the full 150 minutes. Daniel Craig was an excellent Bond, taking the character back to the original intention in the books. He had the right blend of machismo and sensitivity and his acting was fine, although I am not sure there was enough in the part to justify his nomination at the BAFTAs.

I still have difficulty with West End cinema. The pervasive smell of popcorn, the incessant noise of munching detract from the enjoyment of the experience. But the occasional visit is okay.
