007 or MI. Review on Casino Royale Movie

007

or MI (Mission Impossible)!!!

Really, this was the first thought after watching the movie. At times, I

felt that I just saw some part of the MI series without Tom cruise

but of course Daniel Craig.

Well

007 have always been and it certainly is associated with intelligence, class

and gadgets. But here, we hardly saw any of those prominently.

Moving

deeper in, it was more of a stunt film. Probably even on the lines of Charlie’s

Angels. Normally the personality of 007 does not allow him to fight and

perform stunt, as specifically as much as in this part. The film though started

with a SUPERB stunt sequence, but it was quit exaggerated for a character

like bond.

We

have seen, James Bond as a Spy or detective or a secret agent. But here

it just became a rescue agent, as clichéd the "THE EARTH SAVER".

007 is always personified as a sleek, full of smartness and intelligence and

smooth. Probably this is how IAN FLEMMING has created it. These qualities

should be in physical and mental front.

The

next point is there were no gadgets in the film. It was really shocking; I

was languishing for it in the whole movie. How is it possible that we have

007 without those fantastic, may be abstract, gadgets? Even the Beast Machine,

our very own, ASTON Martin’s utilization was not up to mark. Instead of showing

its multi gizmotic presence, it was used again only for a rollover stunt.

I was pretty much disappointed. Even the Omega was not spared. The life saver

of Bond, his watch, had no presence. Being high tech, these gadgets are also

his Style Statement. 007 is incomplete without their use.

But

I should appreciate the stunts. They were fantabulous. The first chasing

sequence was awesome. Moving to the Daniel, he has an excellent voice. His

dialogue delivery is superb. His personality i.e. MACHO ness over Pierce's

Sleekness was apprized. The Cinematography was first class. The dialogues were

nice too.

Seeing

as a complete package, I would rate two and a half. Also the movie

proceeds a bit slower towards the end. But it is surely a ONE TIME WATCH. Thats

it guys.
