Position:Home>Theater & Acting> Who agrees that Daniel Craig makes a crap Bond?


Question:I'm not even convinced that he can act - not unless you are looking for somebody to have that permanently constipated look.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I'm not even convinced that he can act - not unless you are looking for somebody to have that permanently constipated look.

I don't know about his acting, but he's not very believable as Bond. I think it was a mistake not to use Pierce Brosnan again, as to me he IS the perfect Bond.

true true

Who's worried about his acting?

Any man who looks good in a tiny pair of swim shorts is ok by me.

No! he's great... its about time they brought Bond into the 21st Century!

i agree

Disagree! He's awesome.

i dont care what any of these sean connery worshippers say, there'll never be a better bond than timothy dalton. the guy was understated class

In a universe of rubbish Bonds, Roger Moore surely shines brightest.

I didn't find Craig too irksome, to be honest.

Do I ever!

You must be blinkered he is an absolutely brilliant actor did you not see him my 'Friends from the North' I think though that he needs to be more subtle in his approach but the way he portrayed in his first role as bond was the remit given to him by the producers

Did you know that Ian Fleming intended James Bond to be potrayed the way Daniel Craig played the part.

Sean Connery just loved himself so much it was sickening...same as he does now.

Disagree totally! I think he is the best Bond ever! And has been great in a lot of other films.
I may be an amateur judge of acting skills, but I can't see how his are inferior to any of the previous Bonds.
Besides you need to remember that Casino Royale was the birth of Bond; the wily smoothness and surreptitious charm comes later!
I DO have to admit I am biased - it is so rare for me to find any actor sexy and exciting. Many of them seem so, but only in a particular role, so it is their portrayal of the character that is sexy and exciting. See them in another role, and the bubble bursts.
Daniel Craig brings a very real manly presence to every role he plays.
I think he's good!

I so totally agree. And it looks like he hasnt been signed up to do anymore as he already has another film out and not a bond one.
The only bond for me will always been Sean Conner.

Your with me men I agree..

I think he's a great Bond! If you can get past the "Sean Connery is the best Bond there'll ever be"-mind set, you might be able to enjoy Casino Royale. I hope he settles into the role for a few more movies.

I think between your references to crap and constipation that it may be you who is in need of a laxative!

I agree

He has limited character, but that seems to be what they want to get away from

Remember what they used to do with Dr. Who

You'd have a character like Pat Troughton or Tom Baker and next time they'd give you a stuffed shirt like Jon Pertwee or Peter Davidson

Now they want to have a serious bond after 50 years of frivillous bond.

At least Sean Connery was "strong" in Dr. No

He didn't become funny until Goldfinger and Thunderball

And Roger Moore, what can I say

He was out to lunch with his 12 year old son and Sean Connery was in the restaraunt and Moore's kid says

Look, there's james bond!

And Moore goes

I'm James Bond

and his sons goes

No, the real one!

At least be thankful Craig is a tad better than Linda Thornson on the Avengers!

NO he does not!!

But perhaps I am biased.

He is a proper dapper gentleman!!

Seriously, have you seen that scene where he's coming out the water??
