how do you like Daniel Craig as James Bond?  

He is definitely no Sean Connery, but I think he is the best bond since him regardless of his crummy scripts. I am disappointed by far more than just the lack of gadgets in this movie. They need to go retro on bond scripts, but keep the action of the newer ones.

Happy Turkeyday!

I don't like him as James Bond, I think the casting director for James Bond franchise made a big mistake in choosing him as 007, he lacks certain qualities as James Bond, he has no ex-factor that drew people around or atleast to his role. The suave looks Sean Connery and Roger Moore possessed is missing in him and the fantastic appeal of the two above amazing James Bond seemed eluded Daniel Craig. Even the boyish grin of Pierce Brosnan is not evident in the facial expression of the latest oo7, no wonder the last two James Bond movie failed to capture people's fantasy.

I would say that the best James Bond ever were Sean Connery and Roger Moore,nothing can beat them so far.

I think he's OK as James Bond. He's not as suave as the past James Bond's were but he's still pretty good. He gets down and dirty and prefers to do things through brute force. The newest movie lacks the cool gadgets and the nice cars but I don't think that's Daniel Craig's fault.

I LOVE Daniel Craig as James Bond! As Bond, he's rough, rugged, and highly intelligent. At the same time, he has that "bad boy" image showing through! A lot of women are drawn to men like that! That accent is killer! All that combined makes him oh so sexy. I want to see more of Daniel Craig!

That's the problem with constant remaks of shows - the main character changes, time changes therefore the theory of the show changes. Roger Moore was 007 in my day, but Sean Connery was the original - I liked them both. Pierce Brosnon - wasn't he the next generation before this current guy? DIdn't like him and have no ambition to see this new one.

They change it so much that it just takes away from the original - if you have never seen COnnery or Moore - you won't know what I am talking about. THen again, people would say that COnnery was prettying boring compared to today, but you have to look at it with the mentality of the times - you can't take what we know today and critique a show of yesteryear.

But the whole point of James Bond was he was swab, debonair, classy, maticulate, got things done without getting his hands dirty... that was James BOnd - you know, "shaken, not stirred". To have James Bond rolling in the dirt and getting all bloody - just means James Bond is loosing his touch! They should just make a Milenium Bond and not even have him compare to James Bond - Sometimes it is best to just leave things as they are and not change them!

No not at all. I really don't like him as James Bond but maybe what I like is that James Bond is also being shown as human as he can be.

I'm a guy and I think that Daniel Craig is the best James Bond. I tend to like the gritty and down and dirty James Bond. I think without all the gadgets and sauve-ness, even I could be James Bond...You never know!

He may not be sleek but he plays James Bond on a more realistic way. We should remember that he's supposed to be the inexperienced James Bond as Daniel Craig's first Bond film is the first Bond film. Maybe he perfected proper grooming, etiquette along the way in his life as a secret agent. He may not be athletic and kind of stocky but still he's the real deal. He falls in love with, he got his balls hurt so bad he couldn't walk for awhile. Who who'd imagine James Bond went through it all? While Pierce Brosnan and other other bonds were all about flirting. Not totally though.

i have nothing againts daniel craig,in fact he is one of the good actor,but not in james bond...hes not capable to play hte role as james bond...

I never, ever liked James Bond. Not even as a kid. However, I could always see why it appealed to people so much and those reasons are the ones you name as the things you don't like about him: Cool gadgets and the fact he always looks perfect.

That's why I'm a Jason Bourne fan, he's supposed to be the "Gritty James Bond" version. And that's why I don't like the new Bond either, I simply don't need him because I already have the Jason Bourne series.

I would like to clarify something though, the new Bond is not rough because he's in his beginnings, he's rough because they decided to restart the series and make him rougher. Remember, Craig isn't making a prequel to the previous movies.


I don't like Bond, but I'm glad you guys are enjoying the new movies anyways :)
