‘Casino Royale’ (2006): Daniel Craig introduces a serious, gritty Bond. Is this what we wanted?

When I was writing about the best James Bond movie, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, did I mention that the first thing Pierce Brosnan does every morning is kneel down in front of a shrine to Daniel Craig and mumble a silent prayer and “thank you” for Craig saving him from the moniker of “worst… Read More ‘Casino Royale’ (2006): Daniel Craig introduces a serious, gritty Bond.

“The murder syndicate, the vice ring, the fixed race, the shakedown, the paid gun—all made America’s winter playground the world’s capital of crime…till Miami blasted back and shoved the underworld into the sea—lock, stock, and B-Girl! The screen now dares to bring you the brutality, the excitement, the truth about the terrifying struggle between the… Read More ‘The Miami Story’ (1954): Sleazy potboiler isn’t great, but it’s very entertaining
