Based on the first Ian Fleming's first 007 novel marking Daniel Craig's first appearance as the legendary James Bond at the start of his career. Having just earned 00 status and his license to kill, his target: the ruthless terrorist financier known as Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen). From the jungles of Madagascar to the beaches of the Bahamas, Bond's pursuit of Le Chiffre leads to a showdown in a high-stakes poker game at the luxurious Casino Royale in Montenego, and to a jaw-dropping finale on the Grand Canal in Venice. Craig delivered a fresh gritty aesthetic to the historic role, making it his own and commencing a new phase for our favourite secret agent.
WINNER – Best Sound, BAFTA Awards 2007
"A sharp script, lush direction, impeccable action, a memorably creepy Bond Villain, a bold and brilliant Bond Girl, and the arrival of Daniel Craig; Casino Royale is the greatest Bond film ever made."
