Casino Royale
Diretto da Martin Campbell
Dopo essersi guadagnato due zeri e la licenza di uccidere James Bond, alle origini della sua carriera, è sulle tracce di Le Chiffre, uno spregiudicato banchiere che finanzia organizzazioni terroristiche. L'intervento di Bond manda all'aria i suoi piani, sventando un attentato ai danni di una compagnia aerea. Le Chiffre si ritrova così in debito e in imbarazzo con un misterioso signore della guerra africano, per saldare il conto organizza un'esclusiva partita a poker al Casino Royale nel Montenegro. Finanziato dal governo e controllato dall'affascinante contabile Vesper Lynd, Bond è tra i dieci ricchi partecipanti che gareggiano per il piatto milionario. Sopravvissuto a una lunga notte di bluff, strategie, inseguimenti, avvelenamenti e torture, sarà l'amore a piegare l'agente britannico e a condizionarne il destino sentimentale.

Casino Royale Ratings e Recensioni
- Octothorn17 aprile 2026Ok for a Bond movie I guess. I enjoyed this 20 years ago, but now on rewatch it's kind of cringey. Observations of spycraft have changed, and the characters kind of behave like infants. Bond is reckless, but the film pretends it is charisma, Vesper is framed as smart, but her vocal fry and inability to respond properly to obvious reducible risk make her appear incecure, ineffectual, and too wrapped up in herself, M is sceptical and framed as competent, but the film fails to have her engaged with mission operation in any way. "Lets just send this reckless psychopath dude into a high-stakes situation with no backup or contingency plan, shall we?" She just comes across like the head of a cleanup crew creating work for herself. Accounting for these things would have been easy, and made for a much better film, but would have resulted in Vesper asking M to take Bond off the job almost immediately.
- EnochLight24 dicembre 2024Writing this at the cusp of 2025, it's hard to believe that this film is almost 20 years old, as I cite this single film for rejuvenating my love for the James Bond film franchise. But unlike Martin Campbell's 1995 "Goldeneye" (which was also the debut of Pierce Brosnan's take on 007), what "Casino Royale" achieved was a far grittier, far more realistic take on our favorite spy - and I applaud him for that. At the time, Daniel Craig was fairly unknown and an odd choice that received a lot of fan pushback when he was announced, but after seeing his debut in "Casino Royale", he was the absolute perfect choice. This was a man who was a trained killer, and Craig's gruff appearance and brutalism were perfect for the role. I knew from the very start that this James Bond film would be like no other - it begins in grainy black and white - and Bond's struggle with his first kill is animalistic and brutal. There is no grace in murder, and that's on full display here. I was hooked. Add in the sublime Eva Green and her Vesper Lynd is a perfect "Bond Girl" - she's incredibly intelligent, witty, stunningly gorgeous, and an easy match for Bond's charms. Mads Mikkelsen is easily one of the best Bond villains to ever appear - gone is the campiness. He is ominous and calculating. There are so many good things about this film that it's hard to choose - it still feels sexy and quintessentially James Bond, but it also feels grounded in reality. At almost 20 years old, it remains one of my top favorite James Bond films and unlike many of the older films from the 60's, 70's, and 80's - it still holds up great today. That's not to say I still don't love Sean Connery's magnificent trilogy of 1962's "Dr. No", 1963's "From Russia with Love", and 1964's "Goldfinger", but 2006's "Casino Royale" proves that not every Bond film needs to be littered with tongue-in-cheek humor and campy villains. It's perfect.
- LivewireAdmin3 febbraio 2026When a franchise hits rock bottom, there are only two choices: double down on the old formula or burn it down and start over. After Die Another Day, Bond had nowhere left to hide behind invisible cars and CGI waves. The series had become a parody of itself. So EON faced the same crossroads that Warner Bros. had stared down a few years earlier with Batman & Robin. Repeating the past wasn’t going to cut it. Reinvention was the only way forward. Casino Royale arrived in the wake of Batman Begins, and you can feel that influence in every creative decision. Nolan’s approach proved that even the most battered franchise could be reborn by grounding its mythology, stripping away self-parody, and returning the character to something rawer. Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson seemed to take that lesson to heart. Out went the gadgets, the winking tone, the over-designed sets. Out went Q and Moneypenny. In their place: a Bond at the beginning of his journey—untested, impulsive, and dangerous in a way we hadn’t seen since Fleming’s pages. And then they cast Daniel Craig. People forget how hostile the reaction was in 2005. Too blonde, too rough, not handsome enough, unable to drive stick. The internet was already very good at complaining, and Craig took the brunt of it. But once the film landed, the conversation flipped almost instantly. He felt sleek and lethal like Dalton at his best, carried the emotional depth and severity of Brosnan, and brought a cold confidence that recalled Connery while standing entirely on its own. In a single film, Craig walked into a 40-year legacy and somehow didn’t get lost in its shadow. That transformation only works because the script is so sharply constructed. There’s nothing extraneous here—no filler scenes, no empty spectacle, just story. Bond’s arc is clean, painful, and inevitable. He begins the film as a blunt instrument and ends it hardened into the operative we recognize, but not without scars. What really pushes Casino Royale over the edge is how confident and muscular the action feels. Director Martin Campbell, who had already revitalized the franchise once with GoldenEye, somehow tops himself here. Every set piece is sharp, intense, and filmed with a clarity that modern action cinema rarely attempts. The Madagascar foot chase is practically a mission statement—Bond reckless and improvisational, chasing a disciplined parkour expert across cranes and construction yards. The stairwell fight in Montenegro is brutal in a way the series had never shown before; you feel every punch, every gasp for breath. Campbell stated that they were barely allowed to show blood in GoldenEye, seeing Bond bleed was something we had never really witnessed. And the Venice sequence, with a building literally sinking around them, is both chaotic and emotionally devastating. Campbell stages all of it with precision and weight, letting the physicality and stakes speak for themselves. Eva Green is the heartbeat of the film. Vesper Lynd isn’t just another Bond girl; she’s someone Bond actually falls for. Their chemistry builds gradually and honestly, which makes the final act land with that rough twist of inevitability. The emotional fallout shapes Craig’s entire run, but even if it didn’t, the heartbreak here would still be unforgettable. And Mads Mikkelsen? Inspired casting. His Le Chiffre is not a world-ending villain, but a menacing, wounded predator who radiates tension even when he’s silent. He’s a perfect foil for this younger Bond—cerebral, calculating, and uncomfortably intimate in his violence. I saw Casino Royale at a midnight screening with my cousin, and we walked out knowing instantly that Bond had been reborn. This wasn’t nostalgia. This wasn’t a relic trying to survive in a post–Cold War world. This was a statement: 007 still mattered. A flawless reinvention. A franchise reborn. You know his name.
- Kevin Shales7 aprile 2026Brilliant Bond Film. Dan Craig is a bloody good Bond
- bogometer10 settembre 2025After Roger Moore and Perce Brosnan I was kind of tired of Bond, but Daniel Craig kicked off a new era that made me want to watch again. And finally it’s done right instead of the inane comedy of the first version. Ian Fleming can stop rolling over, because this film does justice to the first Bond book I ever read as a young man.
- PapaHamzeh11 marzo 2025The beginning of the best era. Sad that it never lived up to its promises, except once.

- Josh T12 gennaio 2026One of my least favourite Daniel Craig Bond movies. But that’s still good as I seriously love his Bond movies. It’s still a fun time and seriously good watch
- Zokkiie11 gennaio 2026This one just hits. It feels fresh, grounded, and way more intense than the older, campier Bonds. The action is brutal in a good way, the parkour chase is still amazing, and the villain is actually interesting instead of just goofy evil. Craig feels raw and dangerous here — not quite the smooth super-spy yet, which makes it fun to watch him grow into the role. Skyfall made me fully buy into him as Bond, but going back to this after that really shows how strong the foundation was. Honestly, it’s stylish, tense, emotional in places, and borderline a masterpiece. One of the easiest Bond movies to rewatch.
- Jakeys26 dicembre 2025It loses out on being my favourite Bond movie to GoldenEye, but I'd concede this is technically the best Bond movie. I remember how much doubt there was about Craig, including from me. But this movie absolutely shuts down anyone who doubted him and puts him in the conversation for the best Bond of all time. I still think it's Brosnan, but I know I'm in the minority because Brosnan was let down by several bad movies through no fault of his own. Anyway, Casino Royale is the benchmark for how to make a great spy movie.
- mickerdoo28 giugno 2025Bond's first and last love. Really enjoy Craig as Bond and this is a very fitting film to start him off. Green is a treasure.
- Nathan Magreta30 ottobre 2025Before this, I had never seen a bond movie. But Casino royale is just such a dark, grounded action film that can go on as among the best ever.
- darsan19 ottobre 2025an awesome first entry 007 film for daniel craig and the villian, the action and the score is just PEAKK.
- Mr. D10 settembre 2025Rewatched this almost 20 years later. I have a new respect for Daniel Craig Bond. The DTS soundtrack sounds awesome. Watching part 2 (Quantum of Solace) immediately following, now.
