Went to see the film and there aren't any of the james bond generic features in the film at all. But none of the critics have said this so i thought it was just me.

ABSOLUTELY!!!! As I point out in another thread, it's his first mission, yet M is Judi Dench - however, she is specifically introduced in Goldeneye as the new replacement for the role of M - so the current film CANNOT lie on the same timeline. Plus, it is too different in content - scrappy fighting (this guy is supposed to be extremely highly trained), thug-look Bond, no gadgets, no MI6 support at all. The only thing they got right was Felix Leiter.

It's a restart to the Bond Story (ies) apparently working more closely with the original books..the later movies in the series (to now) had little or nothing to do with Ian Fleming's work."Goldeneye" was the name of Fleming's Home,"The world is not enough" is Bond's Family Motto...The Movies have been entertaining,but when You get characters like Robbie Coltrane's "Russian" sending up the vodka martini cliche,You can hear the barrel scraping going on..
Sometimes a cover version of a song or a Movie remake/sequel betters the original...wait and see.
The first time around,"Casino Royale" with David Niven and Woody Allen was played for humour and wouldn't have been considered a proper Bond Movie..this time,they're playing it real...
I read the book way back(20+Years),and have yet to see the Movie,but The characters ring a bell,as does a certain torture scene...

this may suprise you, i disagree too, The new bond film is the beginig, its how he becomes who he is, like said in the film half hitman half monk.
Did you really not get it when the film started off with out him been a 00. " you need to kills to be a 00 agent. Miss moneypenny and Q have not even worked with bond at this stage, hence non of Q's fantastic gadgets
The film has been made in the same way the starwars films were made its a Prequel

Not agree. Casino Royale is the first of the 007 books written by Ian Fleming. It´s about the beginning of this agent, when he hasn´t developed all his world famous style. This is NO DOUBT a true, original James Bond Film.

Yah, I have to disagree too.
It's Ian Fleming's work.
Ian put James Bond in it.
What else do we need to know?
Granted Daniel Craig is a *different* Bond than we've grown accustomed to, he's not a *bad* Bond.
I quite liked the film.

This is the beginning. The new Bond or new style if you want to call it that is great. I was looking for a solid movie, not comparison to past ones.
