Default Re: Casino Royale Review *No Spoilers*

I liked the lead and much of the cast, and the darker tone. I think the early chase scenes were decent but not great (kind of went on and on after a point). But I thought the plot was disconnected, undeveoped jibberish. the only theme they really took hold of and developed in the spy work aspect of the plot was to put everything on the poker fad. having done a pretty bad job with that, it's kind of hard to find much to like about the film. and when the bad guy got killed and then the movie went on for over another half hour with a new story I grew to hate it. (approx $60M disappeared from the table in the big game, right?)
