Is Daniel Craig the meanest Bond ever?

Is Daniel Craig the meanest Bond ever? | Bond Special

TimePosted by IBNLive at 12:33 PM, Nov 07, 2008 in Showbiz

Daniel Craig has returned as Agent 007 in the Quantum of Solace. Craig is the only blond so far among all the six actors who have done the spy act on screen. If Casino Royale had a well-toned and muscular Craig emerge from the waters in trunks, Quantum of Solace has a mean Bond who doesn't sleep with his woman. He also doesn't ask for "shaken, not stirred" martini. Instead of high-tech gizmos to keep him company, Craig uses physical power to settle scores. Is Daniel Craig the meanest Bond we've seen?

Who do you think makes the sexiest James Bond?

What ever it may be.. the bond movies has lost the charm with Daniel Craig..
The character which is supposed to be an 'assasin' all the way.. has taken a U turn and now seems to be a 'Love Story'!!!

Pierce Brosnan took bond sequels to a new heights where sentiments meant least to the character. But now, I guess, the sequel is more of a 'Love Story' where the British Assasin is hunting for his lover's killers!!!
better the name should change now to 'True lover - 007'!!!!

I dont knw all these things. But this bond is the worst looking bond. Daniel looks like Kamal Khan of Deshdrohi.

Certainly Daniel doesn't fit into the Bond gerene, James Bond as we know him, is a cool ... and more importantly handsome guy. He is neither of this. To add to it, Bond is supposed to use technology and gadgets... dats his trade mark and how many times have Bond Movies inspired scientists into turning technology on screen into technology on road... so Daniel misses the fun. Also, he lacks the ease with wich his predecessor eased into the roles and characters. So, I would give 2/10 for Daniel.

Daniel Craig has excelled as bond in quantum of solace, like everyone else even bond has fallen in love and seeks revenge for his beloved's death. Unlike previous bond movies this movie lacks the ultra-tech. gizmos which everyone looks forwad to. Actions scenes were fine but nothing was of the standard that maintained bond's larger than life image.

Hi all,

I think this is the worst Bond ever in the history of James Bond movies. He looks so bad that I turn my face around whenever his add comes on the TV. He has destroyed the image of James Bond. I am no more interested in seeing James Bond movies.

Certainly YES!

We are habituated to perceive the Queen's agent as a GIZMO freak who is an epitome of STYLE n SEDUCTION... But, here comes a normal guy with destructive physical power and with a high emotional quotient... Afterall, he is a HUMAN and he too is attached with people (emotionally)...

Well I have seen the movie on the first day first show, and experienced a different genre of BOND movie... Though the first instalment of Daniel (The Casino Royale) had the typical JAMES BOND element, this one surely is of different genre... Some people including me can even say, it is a disappointment for genuine BOND fans... Coz, as a diehard fan of BOND movies, we do expect some high-end GIZMOs with an iconic styled BOND and his clever n raunchy dialogues... Here, this guy lacks the Style element which I believe is essential for BOND... But i truly agree to the fact that he has delievered his best for the movie...

Finally I can say Daniel is the meanest of the all BONDs...

Certainly not. Ofcourse Daniel Craig fits to the "Highly Romanticized Version of A True Spy 'THE JAMES BOND',but one may not be in a comfortable position to say that he is THE MEANEST.The Golden Eye, The world is not enough are some works to point Pierce Brosnan , so far, as the best of the bonds...and things may change if Craigs performs well and more importantly fits to the character which is a mixture of Romance, Action and Exuberance then on a particular day, we could say Craig as THE ONE in all of the Bonds....

Quantum of Solace is Phenomenal..waiting for BOND 23
