Casino Royale
Rules!
The first two acts are quite easily the best I've ever seen from the Bond franchise and have two of the best action set-pieces perhaps ever! There's a noticable drop off in act three as the direction and story begin to wander a bit off course, but not nearly enough to ruin the film (I was still riding the high of the first two hours). A tad on the long side and I believe that has everything to do with some of the dawdling in the last 30 minutes, but still undoubtedly one of the top three Bonds (along with Goldfinger and Goldeneye), if not the best.
Daniel Craig: Nails. Never has Bond been so icy cold and BADASS -- a quality no other actor had brought to the role previously.
Eva Green: I love her. I'm just going to put this out there and you can agree with me if you like (but no disagreeing, because you'd just be wrong): Hottest Bond Girl ever.
