I had the pleasure of dining at home and enjoying a lovely homemade meal of fish and chips. The fish was done in bread crumbs that were crushed up to perfection. The fish was Alaskan Pollock which wasn’t too bad either, it wasn’t really fishy which is to my liking. Then fried in a pan with browned butter the bread crumbs crisped up to a golden delicacy. Then dad took it a step further and made homemade chips which topped the meal off to T. It was by far one of the better meals that my dad has made, and the fish was truly excellent.
Now that I have you frothing at the mouth for something tasty I will move on to the reason of my post:
Movie Review – CASINO ROYALE
I have never really been a fan of Bond movies and I never thought that anyone but a brunette could play bond. Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan, those Bond’s all had dark hair. Well I was fooled last night. Last night the Premiere of Casino Royale on the free movie network was happening at 9 pm. I thought I’ve heard a lot of good things about this movie and even though I don’t like Bond movies I thought I would give it a try. Damn good job that I did because I thought the movie was friggin’ awesome. The action catches the audience right from the beginning of the movie and doesn’t really stop. There was no chance the audience could predict what was going to happen next or anything of the like. I would like to say KUDOS to Chris Cornell (formerly of Audioslave and Soundgarden) to writing an amazing opening song for the movie. The song captured the action, the power bond has over the women, and just how smart a spy he really is. I was amazed at how much I truly liked this film. One of my fav. Lines:
Bond: I’d like a martini please (said in hot british accent)
Bar Skip: Would you like that shaken or stirred sir?
Bond: Frankly, do I look like I give a damn!
The leading lady that caught Bond’s attention was definitely not one of my favourite. I don’t really like Eva Green as an actress, I find her quite dull. The Dame Judi Dench as M, Bond’s boss is phenomenal. She’s a get to the point, no bullshit kinda gal, and she pulls off the role stunningly with class of course. Now lets get to the real main object of our affection, Daniel Craig as 007, James Bond. He has the body of a god ( as demonstrated in the picture below) and the ego of one as well. He deems himself untouchable for a while until a certain part in the movie where his mission is almost compromised. Another great point is that Bond admits that he would rather have a relationship with married women then single, single being just not his type. He made for a really good Bond, a lot better then I expected and I regret having watched the movie so late. Yes it saved me a little bit of dough but it would have been worth it to dish out in the end because I was so impressed with the movie.
