I liked Casino Royale - it seemed closer to the books somehow. Nice to get away from the gadgetry a bit, and have a plot (or what passes for a plot in James Bond films!).
You're right but I was on about the more recent remake with Daniel Craig which IMO is a seriously good film because it relied more on drama than stunts to keep up the tension.
I hated CR. They got everything wrong and for all the guff about getting back to basics they still ended up falling back on a bloody stupid gadget (the in car defibrillator ffs...) Bond films should have at least some humour in them. CR had none, it was just grim and nasty. Pierce Brosnan in Goldeneye. Now that's how Bonds and Bond films should be.
