Evolution of the James Bond Films
Casino Royale was a welcome return to a harder edged Bond that had been absent for years, and although the casting of Daniel Craig in the starring role initially brought with it a huge amount of venomous criticism, his portrayal of 007 was almost universally lauded and the film received an unexpectedly positive response from film critics worldwide. Part of the problem with James Bond movies for years is that they have been unrealistic and using comedy elements that detract from the tension created by the action and dramatic aspects of the screenplay. view source
