Casino Royale (2006) – 3.5/5
I felt the mood/feel of this movie was great: dark and tense. However, I felt the story was a bit thin and the action a bit small-scale.
I really wanted to like this one a lot and thought it had a lot going for it, but also some faults too.
The characters were pretty good, but…

Action – I felt it was too localized. The first action sequence of him chasing that guy. Who was he? Why did he want him? What was the point? I wasn’t that tied into the action b/c I didn’t know what the goal was and why. I felt most of the action was this way.
Characters – They were pretty good, but it always bothers me when they play cat-and-mouse w/ the villian. He’s the bad guy, no she is, no this other guy new to the whole story is, wait…
