“Casino Royal” takes us back to see how Bond became Bond. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised that there was little actual blood but then most of the older 007 movies were fairly tame in this sense. The action was ever lasting accept for a longer than needed poker game and the language is only slightly above our acceptability level.

What makes this movie different than the previous ones is that this Bond is not just a “Secret Agent” but frequently exercises his “License to Kill,” and I do mean frequently. One similarity however, is that his caviler attitude toward casual sex with women is about the same as it always was. Due to the content discussed above, this film cannot be approved for the family.
