Daniel Craig

His rivalry with Bond perfectly complements the Vesper romance. Mads Mikkelsen has the Christopher Walken 'that guy just looks bad'. Starkly, almost cruelly handsome, a milky blind eye and a gaze colder than midnight frost - he plays Le Chiffre as a human shark. His snivelling before the angry African dictator is refreshing for a villain, although I admit I prefer my baddies to have a bit more bottle. Little actually happens; Bond surprises a double agent in his office, a few words are exchanged, and then the traitor is abruptly executed. The interspersed toilet fight pads out the scene and introduces the brute force of the new Bond. Like its star, the pre-credits is all sparse confidence and sinew. The welcome reappearance of Felix Leiter, now a pleasingly hangdog Jeffrey White (I really hope White isn’t gone for good). Gradually the legend builds itself around you. It’s a giddy experience.I’m not sure if we need the African dictator fight. Felix accomplishes this trick. No sign of him in the Spectre trailers but I live in hope.I should stress, none of the above is a critique. Bond. "Shame. We barely got to know each other." He pulls the trigger, but James has removed the ammunition from the weapon. I suppose that's something." Dryden continues to taunt Bond, asking him if he felt any remorse or guilt over killing Fisher. Bond remains passive, his face expressionless. The frame instantly shifts to the series' iconic "gun barrel" sequence. Vesper is kidnapped by Le Chiffre. Bond races after them in his Aston Martin, but has to swerve violently when he sees Vesper lying bound in the road. The car rolls several times, destroying it and injuring Bond, rendering him unconscious. Le Chiffre and his cronies take him, remove his homing implant and take him and Vesper to a nearby tramp steamer. Bond is stripped and bound to a chair with the seat removed, leaving his testicles exposed. Bond's scrotum, demanding the password for the account the winnings have been secured in. Bond refuses, despite Le Chiffre's threats to kill him and Vesper. Le Chiffre finally draws a knife and is about to castrate Bond when gunshots are heard outside. He talks to Mathis, whom he believes was responsible for his and Vesper's capture by Le Chiffre. MI6 agents appear, taze Mathis and drag him away. Vesper visits Bond and they confess their love for each other. He killed the driver of the semi-truck and then hijacked it to continue the chase. He performed a 360 degree turn, and avoided collisions as he passed vehicles and trucks, and ended up hurtling through a twisting, hair-pin dirt road within a rock quarry. As Wesley was pursued in a parking lot by a Nibblers van hijacked by Cross, she drove up to him in a red Dodge Viper SRT-10, did a 360 degree turn, and scooped him up into the passenger seat as the car wheeled around. It’s a game of Texas Hold ‘Em, a game that this author doesn’t know how to play, yet somehow I can follow the power play throughout. In the script (and in the movie) Bond breaks into the Nambutu embassy in an effort to capture a bomb maker only to be cornered by a group of soldiers with automatic rifles. In a moment that defines the new, darker James Bond, he kills an unarmed assailant. Bond an okay one-liner. But ultimately, this writing of the scene comes from the exact same mindset that made George Lucas have Greedo shoot first in the STAR WARS re-issue — the hero needs to be retaliating, never instigating. Bond stops the attack within the first 30 minutes of the movie and for the rest of the story Le Chiffre is just trying to recuperate.
