Whew, that's a hot take, brev.

Not only do I think Casino Royale is easily the best Craig Bond, I think it's one of the best Bond films of all-time.

I tried re-watching it recently and still don't care for it.

Now that that's out of the way.. This is one you can't think too much about, but on the surface it's a quintessential Bond flick. If you didn't enjoy this one, I think you just don't like the James Bond franchise.

It was a great send off for Daniel Craig, though I'd probably rank this one riiiight in the middle of the Craig Bonds.

Casino Royale
Skyfall
No Time to Die
Quantum of Solace
Spectre

Now that I think about it, NTtD and QoS are pretty interchangeable in my eyes. Spectre was really the only dud of Craig's, IMO.
Bond dying is quintessential of the franchise?

I can actually see that. I originally watched it when it was first released (I was a teen) and hated it. I just remember thinking it was so ****ing boring. Dude spent half the movie playing cards!

Few years later I had learned how to play poker and randomly came across that initial chase scene from the beginning on YouTube and I'm like "What the ****? This is awesome and I don't remember any of it".

So I re-watched it and for whatever reason it just really hit for me then.

Now, I will admit that I really enjoyed Quantom of Solace, which is pretty much universally panned so maybe I'm not the best judge of Bond film quality lol I also re-watched most of the Brosnan Bonds recently and enjoyed the hell out of those too.

Yeah, I mean most of the stuff up to that. That happened in the last couple minutes of the movie.

It had Bond being suave, hot Bond girls, Bond plot armor, one-liner humor, cool cars, awesome gadgets from Q, a comical villain, said villain on an island lair, showdown on said villainous island lair.

Major differences in this one were Bond dying, obv, and the relationship dynamic. Going the family man direction wasn't really conducive to him bagging a lot of young broads. So in that regard, yeah, I could see how you'd say it wasn't; but it had everything else you'd typically see in a Bond flick.

Great ending but my worry is his replacement as 007. Want an AWESOME Bond that has several different stories than an elongated story across several movies like Craig was. Get a great NEW Bond and have several stories ala Rodger Moore and Sean Connery.

Finally watched this. I thought it was very good. I understand the ending, pretty sad. Part of me is sad about the ending because of my fear that they'll keep that robotic black chick as 007. That would be a nightmare. But I'm sure they'll go with a minority of some kind since Bond has become such a woke franchise.

With Mennonite's reviews I really don't understand why he is even watching these movies. He seems to hate them all.

Sometimes the ones who hate a franchise the most are its biggest fans.

For many years in the late 2000s, there wasn't a single person who hated the Kansas City Chiefs more than me lol

Can't believe a timeline exists where I agree with Maher on a topic.

Are the dude bros mad that bond isn't banging chicks left in right in his last few movies? These movies were all entertaining...now I'm curious who will be the next bond.
