When I first saw this film, I was curious why they didn't start right away with the gun barrel shot like in the other films.
And, then, this came out of nowhere. It nearly took my breath away. Probably one of my favorite Bond openings.
And, it makes sense why they didn't have the gun barrel sequence at the start, like in the other films; he wasn't a 00 yet. By him killing those two, it's like it helped him earn that sequence. I love it.
Things like this are why I enjoy going to the movies.
As an operator Bond was always a killer (the movies got away from this for a very long time) sand-baggers as they were called had a very short life span involvement in any form usually spelled a even shorter one
Bond was a suave killer. The early Bonds concentrated more on the suave and less on the killer. As we moved forward he became more killer than suave. Connery the first Bond was the epitome of suave, Craig the latest is the epitome of killer.
I've been around to see them all, but I prefer the modern Bond. More realistic. Who would you rather have save the world?
@Dragosani44 I like both the old and new ones the old ones because they were like watching the comedies mainly rodger moore and connery movies were like that and you knew they were finding it funny doing the acting Timothy Dalton is more serious and I don't know how to describe Pierce or that George guy
Don't you hate it when you watching a Bond movie with your girlfriend and the gun barrel sequence starts and she says "Its over all ready? that was gay!" sometimes...
Best Bond film I ever watched. The plotline was the biggest star. Sticking fairly closely to the original novel was the key. Not many Bond films do that. There was for instance a big car crash in the novel too. Although Bond's steed of choice was a "Blower Bentley" 1930's race car. Not an Aston Martin. The novel itself being set not long after WWII.
Best bit for me apart from nearly all the action scenes was Vesper's first meeting with Bond on the train. Exquisite scripting and acting.
I was visiting America for the first time when this movie came out.
After an outrageously large meal - I suggested we go and cross the car park to watch James Bond in the cinema. (Haha - they drove their car across the car park to get there - lol)
The US audience was lapping it up - one guy was too excited and kept blathering through the movie. During the violent stairwell scene, another guy threatened to kill him if he didn't shut up!
Quantum of Solace was so-so, IMO. They did the Bourne-style cinematography, which doesn't go well with a Bond film. With MGM coming out of bankruptcy soon, and assuming Daniel Craig comes back (I sure hope so!), they will get the series back on track.
quantum of solace did suck. I agree. Casino Royale was awesome, though. Best Bond flick since Goldeneye. This was my favorite opening Bond song too, followed by the Goldeneye opening :P
@944911928 Because it doesn't need it. The over-use of sexualization in previous openings was, in my opinion, completely unnecessary.
This video has everything worthy of Bond: James being a bad-ass, and music which fits seamlessly with the character and themes...all stylized with a game-like feel, matching the associations created with the title and certain key plot-points. Casino Royale isn't about dancing women, and the inclusion of such in the opening would have soiled the presentation.
@ahmedjo11 The irony is that the next Bond was a disaster. Too many special effects and unreal situations. I was so disappointed after CR. But it still made moolah. The Bond franchise is in jeopardy at the moment I hear.
@Tabish29 Not so unreal situations, DaD was worse. But the Bourne-like filming was annoying and the villain was quite weak compared to LeChiffre. There weren't so much special effects, I mean CGI ones, it never went overdone like DaD.
The script was never as brilliant as CR nonetheless, the CR bar is currently too high to be equaled. Daniel Craig still kicks ass.
@ahmedjo11 A real human would have had his knees broken by a jump from a crane to a concrete roof 15 or 20 meters below (the free-running chase at the beginning). How could a real human be alive and conscious after a heart attack, the world record for a rollover car crash, and one of the worst kinds of torture for a man in the same night?
@rsbow1 Roger Moore ruined Bond. He played the bond that was a pussy and cracked bad jokes all the time. At least Daniel Craig could be a badass like Bond is supposed to be. Sean Connery: the Ladies man bond. George Lazenby: The unknown bond. Roger Moore: The one-liner Bond. Timothy Dalton: The Vengeful Bond Pierce Brosnan: The gadget/ ladies-man-action medium. Daniel Craig: The badass.
@UltimteLifeForm Highly agree with yur comments. Although I rate Lazenby and Craig both as 2nd in my list after Sean. Dalton is 3rd because I thought he was no nonsense serious and badass too. Just like Fleming's Bond.
its cool but not as cool as the others- this one entertains you , but the others made you think really hard in a way that made you go like ' wtf does this mean!!!, please give me the answer!!'
classic bond goes to connery obviously....most badass bond easily goes to craig...but for some reason when someone says james bond pierce brosnan pops into my head....probably cause i played so much goldeneye on the n64 haha
@silverhawkroman i don't know, timothy dalton looked the way ian flemming described him in the books. but i like daniel craig though. his bond was more physical, like connery's were. less toys.
@TranceSFX It is stupid when people complain about Craig's version being less the gentleman spy. He is suave, but the character is a new agent who's been a loner his whole life, and whose sole interest lies in self-perfection. Vesper is the first person he opens himself to since the early death of his parents. Upon losing her his only interest is revenge. It is not until later that he understands the need to become 007 as portrayed by Sean Connery. Craig is the perfect beginning to the series.
@ArThorAlfathir Absolutely could not agree more. Craig epitomizes the early Bond, and like a rough diamond later gets polished into the Connery era. I hold Craig in high regard though on the all time list.
@TranceSFX i completely agree that's why i could never really like Pierce Brosnan. too much of a pretty boy. And when he would get tough, he always had some quip or catch phrase to put in after killing someone or doing something cool. I just couldn't take him seriously.
@ClevelandRock I agree but I think they could have incorperated a little bit more of that classic "bond humor" into Craig. But still, My favorite Bond Movie.
Before Craig's Bond, the franchise was slowly dieing..Sure it was making more money, but the response was usually mixed at best. They needed a guy like Craig. Craig's Bond isen't a superhero like most of the others. He fucks up, he makes big mistakes..i.e. He's human. You actully connect with him and give a shit about what happens to him which is something I for one never had with the character. Badass yet very human....I hope Craig plays Bond for years to come....
Yah I agree. And thats a bit of a paradox as well cuz...Doing that got Bond out of the staleness it has been in for quite away before that breathing new life into the franchise, so it did alot of good. At the same time, I do hope the makers rememeber that it is still a BOND film and not the british version of Jason Bourne. But ya, I like Bond more as a lethal agent rather then a pretty boy action hero.
Also. Name any other Bond film where Bond is tied to a chair naked and gets his balls bashed in!
This guy undergoes SERIOUS hurt in the movie, and still manages to crack a joke at his torturer's expense. "now .. the whole world's ... going to know .. you died ... scratching my balls"
Haha - what a performance! Craig wins as best Bond (and I've seen them all).
@ryano2099 No kidding. He's the best Bond since Connery, and I hope he'll stay around for as least as many films as Connery did. He's already supposed to be up for a third as I understand it. This movie was honestly amazing...
Sean Connery Number 1!! But daniel craig is da shit. this genre needed a hero like him. a fucking badass. who hits our time. He is doing a great job. people who want to see a sean connery remake bon should build a time machine and go back to the 80's. Daniel Craig is the best bond for our century so get used to it
Daniel Craig sure shut the critics up...Daniel Craig come second of all the Bonds that came before him, Mr. Connery is and always will be Number One. This film is more close to how Bond was written by Flemming than any others, awesome addition to the Bond franchise.
It is quite a boring James Bond opening, although some graphics are good. And the music is kind of lame in comparison with the Goldeneye theme sung by Mrs. Turner
personally I think bond became popular by being a "wisecracking ladies man" and not by being a bit of a bastard which is just how I see daniel craigs bond.
Daniel Craig's James Bond reminds me of Sean Connery's James Bond. Both were fairly accurate portrayals of Ian Fleming's James Bond and both versions were incredibly bad ass.
Moore and Brosnan's depictions were silly and cartoony. Dalton's Bond was good but he only left after two movies (too bad).
i know, i think casino royale is the closest to the novel, the others were to....idk how to say it but pop...although it's not like i didn't like them
@MisterSnig I wish there were some chicks but for once, who the fuck cares? The media is so saturated with half naked chicks it's getting cliche. This movie's goal is all about showing brutal intensity and badassery.
I like the way the films with Daniel Craig in feel more like reality than the other bond films, as he doesn't use all the flashy futuristic gadgets, everything doesn't always go his way and he doesn't always get the girl.
Oh and did i mention that he is badass as f**k ? ;)
It's 100% better. And coherent to say the least. Seriously, I couldn't tell what was going on half the time during the action sequences, even though the chase on the rooftops in Italy was badass.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hmm i liked the film and it has one of the better openings.
But Daniel Craig is a Bond of few words and not very suave like Sean Connery was. And a Bond film isn't supposed to be a soul-searching drama. It's supposed to be... you know... a James Bond film.
Really if they left the Bond girl out of this one it would have been excelent.
In my opinion Casino Royale goes back to the Dalton era.

He was brilliant in the first one.
He single-handedly saved the second one, with just a few lines.
He's a superb actor who gives everything.

@ryano2099 I...never thought about it like that...I suppose that makes sense :]
Themastercode1235 11 months ago
@ryano2099 One reason for that is that he is playing an early on Bond too, when he first became 007. Of course he is going to make mistakes.
But I have to say he plays a good bond though, however it is not the best IMO.

Sean Connery Number 1!! But daniel craig is da shit. this genre needed a hero like him. a fucking badass. who hits our time. He is doing a great job. people who want to see a sean connery remake bon should build a time machine and go back to the 80's. Daniel Craig is the best bond for our century so get used to it

I do love how the movie made Bond seemed very...mortal. The Pierce ones made him to 'Action Man' like.

Daniel Craig sure shut the critics up...Daniel Craig come second of all the Bonds that came before him, Mr. Connery is and always will be Number One. This film is more close to how Bond was written by Flemming than any others, awesome addition to the Bond franchise.

It is quite a boring James Bond opening, although some graphics are good. And the music is kind of lame in comparison with the Goldeneye theme sung by Mrs. Turner

personally I think bond became popular by being a "wisecracking ladies man" and not by being a bit of a bastard which is just how I see daniel craigs bond.

The series is moving away from the series itself. Less action more boring storylines.
We need a Cold War.

Daniel Craig's James Bond reminds me of Sean Connery's James Bond. Both were fairly accurate portrayals of Ian Fleming's James Bond and both versions were incredibly bad ass.
Moore and Brosnan's depictions were silly and cartoony. Dalton's Bond was good but he only left after two movies (too bad).

Bond with no gadgets? what?
Bond was not meant to be realistic.
It's James Bond for pete's sake,
Of course he is supposed to get the girl.
The watch bomb, the cool cars.
if you want realism to read a Tom Clancy novel. but don't kill James Bond.

Well, we kind of ran out of gadgets.
People kind of expect everything nowadays, we became too advanced for the concept.

The real Bond is a Bond without the silly gadgets. Ian Flemings books are very dark in comparison to all but the two most recent movies.

Don't forget Licence To Kill. That's probably the only other entry where he's not a wisecracking ladies man.

@MisterSnig I wish there were some chicks but for once, who the fuck cares? The media is so saturated with half naked chicks it's getting cliche. This movie's goal is all about showing brutal intensity and badassery.

I like the way the films with Daniel Craig in feel more like reality than the other bond films, as he doesn't use all the flashy futuristic gadgets, everything doesn't always go his way and he doesn't always get the girl.
Oh and did i mention that he is badass as f**k ? ;)

It's 100% better. And coherent to say the least. Seriously, I couldn't tell what was going on half the time during the action sequences, even though the chase on the rooftops in Italy was badass.

hmm i liked the film and it has one of the better openings.
But Daniel Craig is a Bond of few words and not very suave like Sean Connery was. And a Bond film isn't supposed to be a soul-searching drama. It's supposed to be... you know... a James Bond film.
Really if they left the Bond girl out of this one it would have been excelent.

I know what you mean, but I think it follows the novel better in terms of Craig's characteristics in role.
