Video Flagged Dead

Pre-Gun Barrel Sequence in Casino Royale

James Bond earns his 00 status by killing two men, Fisher and Dryden. If you watch closely, when he shoots Dryden you briefly see a photo of Dryden with his wife and children.

I don't know, I felt a bit let down by that. I know Bond got way too tired but I liked the opening sequences in the 70s when Moore was flying planes through hangers. This just reminded me of the bathroom scene in True Lies, a film that was in part a parody of Bond and had a bigger budget. Nowadays Bond can only get made with considerable and painfully obvious product placement.

Casino Royale was a solid start but it's still compromised by the need to be a Bond film - you can throw some serious acting talent at it, but people still want that crash, bang, wallop.
