Ooohhhh...James.....

I managed to catch the latest James Bond movie, Casino Royale (pronounced roi-al), last Friday right after work at Jurong Point. Quite a full house since it was just the second day the movie had been released for screening. The show was 2hrs plus so as i had advised earlier in one of my post, to refrain from going to the loo during the show, avoid sweet stuffs.

Some of u may have read the synopsis of the show. It basically tells us how James Bond becomes.... James Bond. You can see that in his early days the famous agent was still rough around the edges, very rash in his actions and still sloppy in clearing his tracks.

Frankly, when i watched Casino Royale, i dun feel like im watching a James Bond movie. One of the elements that made James Bond enjoyable was missing. Gadgets! Not even 1! Even his car cannot do anything. It's like watching a normal action movie! Wah piang eh! The only thing enjoyable to watch was the fighting. Very rough. Unlike other James Bond movie.

My opinion of Daniel Craig as the new 007 agent? He's OK lah. To me, the person that plays James Bond doesn't need to be handsome. He does however needs to be charming. Like me. Hahah!

As a Bond movie, it's terribly disappointing. As an action movie, it's enjoyable. I just hope my 4th movie to watch at the cinema this year which is 'A Night At The Museum' would not be so disappointing.
