The main plot point of Casino Royale stays relatively close to Ian Fleming's original Casino Royale, the first novel in the James Bond book series. Bond (Daniel Craig), an agent with MI6, earns his 'OO' (double O), license to kill by going to Prague and executing (rather messily) his initial contact man, and a money-stealing rogue agent working. Casino Royale is my favorite James Bond movie and even though, at the time of purchasing this blu - ray, I already had it on DVD, I just had to get it in high - definition to complete my collection as I had the other Daniel Craig Bonds on blu - ray. The movie looks fantastic. The color saturation is incredible, especially upon my first watch.

Casino Royale Dvd Opening
Daniel Craig's first assignment as 007 was not exactly easy for the censors worldwide. Casino Royale, directed by GoldenEye director Martin Campbell, came up with a gruffness that has not been seen in this form in the Bond series since the Timothy Dalton thriller License to Kill. Accordingly, Casino Royale has been censored differently in several markets, such as Germany, the UK and the US.
But also in another market, the 21st Bond adventure was censored: In the People's Republic of China. Traditionally, the series did not have an easy time there; the older Bond films only came onto the market in the form of black market copies. Casino Royale, on the other hand, was the first 007 film to be officially released in Chinese cinemas - albeit with some editing requirements. The official Chinese DVD presented here is based on the completely uncut version. The cuts in the torture scene - especially the absence of Mikkelsen's sentence 'Such a waste! - allow the conclusion that the Chinese theatrical version is based on the British version that was already censored due to the BBFC's advice in favour of a lower BBFC 12 rating. Since the uncensored version served as the master here, this DVD is probably a kind of hybrid version that no longer corresponds 100% to the old Chinese theatrical version.
