My favorite Bond film is "Casino Royale" with Daniel Craig. It is not clownish like the Roger Moore films. It is not massively sexist like the Sean Connery films (although I like him second after Craig as Bond). It is realistic in Craig's understanding that he is a VERY disposable asset. Mads Mikkelson is a very believable bad guy. The female lead was not a 2-dimensional prop. Fights were brutal and nearer to reality than usual Bond fare. Craig got beat up and kept his cuts and bruises for realistic periods. The cherry on top is that gorgeous Aston Martin DBS
