Casino Royale was actually the first novel to introduce the James Bond character by Ian Fleming. The first Bond film was Dr. No, but it has nothing to do with the timeline of that film, either. There was a Bond movie spoof done in 1967, also called Casino Royale, starring David Niven and Peter Sellers, but that film also has nothing to do with the James Bond movies.
Because the rights to this book only now became available to MGM/UA, the novel was able to be produced into a movie, based on that original novel. However, it is not a prequel to any of the previous movies. It just establishes a new timeline to the existing Bond films showing how James Bond begins his life as a Double-0 agent, and how he got there.
In my opinion, being a Bond fanatic, I think the film was brilliant, and Daniel Craig is a convincingly good James Bond.

Casino Royal takes place before all the other movies. It was supposed to show how Bond became 007 and how he turned to his womanizing ways.
Great movie, better than Moore or the last Brosman. The actor (his name slipped my mind) is on par with Connery. It could have done without the ball bashing scene though.

extra true to the Bond of the books with reference to how he thinks, feels and acts. Craig have been given it precise. Bond is an effecient ruthless killing gadget who does have a weak point for the ladies and beverages lots. casino Royale in my strategies is the terrific Bond by way of fact From Russia With Love and surpasses even that. won't be able to wait till the subsequent one already in pre-production. would be an all new journey no longer based on the books and could be an instantaneous sequel as all Bond movies will now be interrelated. something that hasn't been completed by way of fact the ultimate Connery movies.

Definately the beginning of a new franchise. Loved it. Reminded me of Sean Connery. Had great attitude and bite.
