Craig brings the true spirit to the series. He is sharp, fit, centered, and a whole lot less redeeming in nature. Sure, he fell in love (as called for by the first book) but he is developing a whole new attitude on the subject.Craig brings to the screen a real man not a dandy face-man that goes out of his way to be sophisticated. He is about business no matter what it takes.
I applaud the movie for forsaking the usual Bond stereotypical crap yet carefully retaining the Bond feel. I felt I was seeing a good spy movie not a standard Bond film. And, I was surprised at the soundtrack be devoid of the usual (copyrighted?) shrills and frills until the closing credits.
I wouldn't mind it if they remade to whole series beginning with FRWL.
