I really enjoyed Casino Royale, even though it got a lot of flak for exposing Bond's soft side and the guy friend I watched it with emerged from the cinema shaking his head, resentfully declaring it a 'chic flik'. Personally, I didn't feel there was any dearth of action in the movie, just a different kind of action. I much prefer watching Bond use a defibrilator on himself to Brosnon jumping from one burning aircraft to another in mid-air, a full fight sequence where he destroys the villian in the unmanned plane hurtling towards the ground...and SURVIVING! Also, no objections to shots in stunning Montenegro, even if means enduring Bond's tears over a woman. Wholesome entertainment with requisite amounts of action (albeit kinda quirky) and cheese. I was really hoping they would continue Craig's movies in the same vein, disappointed but not surprised to hear they brought back a rougher, tougher Bond in Quantum.
