Editorial Review: Product Description: Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Claudio Santamaria, Jesper Christensen, Judi Dench, Jeffrey WrightDirector: Martin Campbell Amazon.co.uk: When you get to a modern James Bond film, your expectations are surely that you’ll get expensive action sequences, expensive locations and a production that doesn’t skimp on anything. That holds particularly true for the Blu-ray versions of such films, where the hope is for a best-in-class transfer and sound mix. With Casino Royale, not only do you get that, but you also happen to get one of the finest 007 movies of recent times, too. A reboot for the franchise that ushers in Daniel Craig as a rawer, younger Bond, Casino Royale works a lot better than its follow-up, Quantum Of Solace by simple virtue of having a much better story at its core, going back directly to an Ian Fleming novel for it. Furthermore, in the casino sequence itself, it has a tense event to glue everything around, and it’s only in the final sequence or two where Casino Royale starts to feel like a conventional Bond film. That aside, it’s a superb piece of modern action cinema. The film also looks stunning in high definition. From the overhead shots of a glistening beach, to the darker, faster car chases and action sequences, Casino Royale is a fabulous workout for a home cinema rig. The audio mix punches hard, mixing in subtlety when needed with the bombastic subwoofer-workout you might well be hoping for. And the end result is pretty much demo material. Given the strength of the film too, this is surely one of the best Blu-rays of a modern-day film you can buy. And what a way to keep watching the film… --Jon Foster Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I hate that coward host of Bond girls extra!The movie itself is pure 5! BUT: That woman, Maryam d'Abo, she's so sorry that she ever got into the Bond movie! She regrets she ever appeared in it!!! She keeps asking her "counterparts": how threatened they felt in "men's world" of James Bond movies! I just can't believe it! Thankfully, in supporting of what I'm saying, all of them were answering that it was a real pleasure to be in such a quality and fun movies, in company of such a men as is Sean Connery... Rating:  - A new BondDaniel Craig delivers a different type of James Bond, yet perfectly fitting into the Bond universe. Perfect BluRay, many extras,9 significantly better than the DVD, nice price; in short a must buy. Rating: - great filmthis is a great film, well worth the money for the blu-ray edition and its cheaper than the other special editions of casino royale you can buy. Rating: - The original reference discOne of the oldest Blu-Ray discs is still one of the absolute best. "Casino Royale" has a dazzling PCM 5.1 soundtrack with some of the best Bond music in ages "You know my name" from Chris Cornell of The Black Crowes. Throughout the film the listener is spoiled with top-quality effects, superb use of surround speakers and a gargantuan subwoofer display: when the building crumbles late on, you'll think your own house is going down. And, last but not least, everything is perfectly balanced. There is ... Read More Rating: - HD BondThe film is great, as long as you like the new bond. The extra detail over the DVD makes it worth buying again; I didn't know a lot of the suits had a details on them. Browse for similar items by category: Click to Display
