Maybe I'm just a sucker for BOND flicks, but the this post's title line will be the MOST MEMORABLE phrased uttered this year in the movies since Captain Jack Sparrow said "'Ello Beastie" or "Look...*BANG* An undead Monkey, Top That!"
With that said, Casino Royale does to the Bond Franchise what "Batman Begins" did to Batman...and it's just so friggin' Awesome!
Daniel Craig mixes Sean Connery Gruffness with Roger Moore slapstick and punchline, to reinvent Bond, James Bond. We see everything, how he got started, how inexperienced he was (Hey, no one's born perfect!) and we finally see how he becomes the pimp we've known him for the last 40 some-odd years.
Lots of action with little gimmicks (A FEW damn gizmos couldn't of hurt, thou!) and GREAT bits of comedy...
The newer commercials are starting to leak some of best scenes...
BOND:(Orders)Vodka Martini...
BARTENDER:Shaken? or Stirred..?
BOND:(Sharply) Does it look like I GIVE A DAMN?
You totally ask yourself "What the fuck was THAT?!?!"
The clincher is the torture scene...you just can't make this shit up, everybody in the theater was in stitches. This movie HAD to be funnier than "BORAT".
See it, enjoy it, see it again...and guys...bring an Athletic Cup...
Word.
M:Are you going to need Time?
BOND:I don't need time...The Job is Done and the Bitch is Dead.
