Hearting Daniel Craig Is Easy

I’ve never been a hardcore James Bond movie fan, I’ll admit, so I couldn’t help but wonder – all year long, if you can believe – why it is that I’ve been anticipating today’s opening of Casino Royale oh-so very much.

The answer lies in Daniel Craig – I am definitely a fan of his.

We all pretty much have heard a beep or two about the controversy that followed his being chosen to take over the Bond franchise. Many critics and fans hated his casting as 007, but I’m happy to report this recently changed – dramatically.

I believe this 180 is in great part due to the man himself. Craig is a force to be reckoned with on screen: He's charismatic and magnetic, devastatingly handsome, and, more importantly, brilliantly memorable in every turn (like in Road to Perdition, Sylvia, Enduring Love, and Layer Cake).

I am sooo taking a gamble on Casino Royale this weekend. With Craig on screen, I am guaranteed a win.
