      Some of the first critics of Dr. No called Sean Connery a "tired gigolo" or words to that effect, it just goes to show how much critics are worth. Other rubbished movies such as Blade Runner are now cult films.... Craig is a superb bond, educated but very mean and very tough. Roger Moore was a great actor, but too much of a gentleman and pretty boy for Bond, as was Pierce Brosnan to a lesser extent. Bond must not stand out unless he wants to, he is after all a secret agent.

Once he delivered that last line "yes... considerably" with that clipped, polished upper class accent but with an underlying "bite" - I was sold. This man was Bond. End of discussion.

    The greatest Bond film of all time and it’s not even close. I was there in theaters in 2006 when this film came out. To this day, I am blown away that this film is as good as it is all these years later. From Craig’s perfect performance as Bond, to Martin Campbell’s incredible direction, Paul Haggis’s pitch perfect script, David Arnold’s wonderful score and perfect supporting cast. To relaunch the Bond franchise after 20 films is as ballsy a move as I’ve ever seen come out of modern cinema. This scene in particular has always stuck with me. In just 3 minutes, Bond is once again made suave, cool, and a deadly killer. This film is nothing short of a miracle.

      It’s more than just to show that moment is in the past. It’s a direct homage to the film noir spy movies of the 40s and 50s which Ian Fleming (the creator of bond) would have been influenced by at the time of writing the novels, especially the first which was titled Casino Royale. The technique of film noir (dark and brooding, characters with moral ambiguity etc) was the result of the hangover from Ww2. The atrocities many witnessed during the war lent to a cynical, pessimistic view of society, ultimately manifest in art forms such as film noir. If Casino Royale was filmed in 1953 when the book was written, it’s highly likely this scene would have been shot in an almost identical fashion or at least Bond portrayed with the same ruthless callousness as Daniel Craig or Sean Connery.

    One of my favs if not my favorite opening to a Bond film. The atmosphere, Czech Republic, the B/W image, the dialog. For sure that is my favorite cut to the opening credits intro of any Bond film at 2:55. The way he picks up the gun from the ground, turns and quickly shoots and then the amazing “You Know My Name” by the late great Chris Cornell kicks in.

    Must say, I went to see this with some trepidation - Die Another Day had been horrific. Frankly, the opening is so good that if the projector had failed after the opening bars of You Know My Name, I would still have gone home a happy man.

    This is hands down the greatest cold open of the franchise.

    Yes................co-NSI-derably!!
    I absolutely love that line, and the way he delivered it. For some reason, it stuck in my head and i occasionally go back and re-watch this scene. At first i was incredibly nervous and didn't know what expect, but i was rooting for him, after loving him in "Layer Cake". Soon as he delivered that line after that public toilet scene, i knew everything was gonna be ok, and i thought, welcome to a more dark and gritty Bond!!!
