Casino is the best Bond ever, and the movie's pretty good, too.
Craig is physically ripped, as a killing machine should be. Brosnan played a pretty good Bond, but he was pudgy. Craig presents himself as if he could rip your face off with his bare hands.
GoldenEye was weak and politically correct, trying to bring the mysogynist Bond into the new century. The series made up for it with Tomorrow Never Dies with th e line "You always were a cunning linguist."
Whatever the case, Casino is a damn good movie on its own, and definitely invigorates a sagging franchise. The movie is seriously long, but never feels like it, because each new sequence is more than worth your time.
See it and realize that once you go Blond, you never go back.
