Reviewed and Researched by Lisa Shea The Casino Royale movie introduces us to a new James Bond - Daniel Craig. Intriguingly, this was the very first "story" about James Bond in the chronology. I.e. it tells the story of how he very first became 007, and how he developed his flippant attitude about relationships. Interestingly, where most Bonds focus on the beauty of the female body, like the "Venus emerging from the sea" of the very first Bond movie (Dr. No), this one reverses the theme with *James* emerging from the sea, looking quite handsome! The entire beginning of the film is just one long action rush, with some amazing stunts. In a nod to modern sensibilities, the gambling action of the movie is poker, rather than the old style baccarat of the book.
