Casino Royale



James Bond: Vodka-martini.
Bartender: Shaken or stirred?
James Bond: Do I look like I give a damn?



This sums up the refreshing new look at Bond found in Casino Royale. Most of the old cliches are gone, the Bond girl is intelligent and plays a significant role through the whole movie. If you enjoyed The Bourne Identity/Supremacy then this is for you. I would go as far as to say that this film is such a departure from the Bond model that if you see it, you shouldn't think of it as a Bond movie- just a damn good action thriller.
