  • James Bond (Daniel Craig) and Vesper (Eva Green) are attacked by the machete-wielding Obanno (Isaach De Bankolé) in the stairwell of the Hotel Splendide in Montenegro in CASINO ROYALE. Obanno and his bodyguard also threaten Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen) and Valenka (Ivana Miličević).
    The fight took three days to film, with stunt coordinator Gary Powell stating that it was “quite a major scene as it covers such a vast area. Normally you’re in a room, you have a fight, whereas the stairwell covers six flights of stairs all the way down.”
    Directed by Martin Campbell.

      @@notstonkss9417 SPOILER ALERT: in the following movie, Quantum of Solace, it is revealed that Vesper's boyfriend that was used to blackmail her was actually an agent planted by the organization that supposedly abducted him. Essentially, he would get women like Vesper Lynd (intelligence officers with access to sensitive information) to fall in love with him, then fake his abduction to demand said sensitive information as trade for his life. At the end of QoS, her "boyfriend" was seen working on another female intelligence officer, but Bond intercepted him and got his revenge. In the end, Vesper was being played all along, and even though she technically betrayed him, she still traded her & Bond's life in exchange for the money Bond won in Casino Royale. Vesper did love him, and was just an unfortunate victim of bad circumstances.

    The reason Eva Green is arguably the greatest Bond girl is because she doesn't try to be a sexy or alluring. She just is. Green plays it straight and without any wink to the audience or knowing the weight or reputation of such a role.

      Thats not realistic at all, to kill someone by rear choke he would have to keep holding for another 5 mins after going unconscious, here he was dead after 5 seconds.
      Also he has a very weak choke if he had both arms around the guys neck for like 30+ seconds before he went unconscious, a good choke should take like 5 seconds without any hand fighting.

    • @chimp_ape3346

      Omar Millan what on earth are you saying? I’m sure I speak for >95% of film goers in that they wouldn’t want to watch Daniel Craig hold someone who is unconscious in a choke for 5 minutes straight. For films that don’t depict a true story, or try to portray real life in/through a story, the purpose is usually to exhibit a world or events or stories that is/are unfathomable/inconceivable in real life etc. To distort reality. On the contrary, video games usually try and depict real life things e.g. fifa or gta or racing games so that a person can somewhat experience these things for themselves. Therefore their goal is to appear more realistic, so usually, realism is more important in video games. In the case of this film, it’s James Bond, a series that always pushes the boundaries, often exceeding, what is possible by a human. And it’s an action film, so 5 minutes of someone choking another person out would not be interesting. In this case, what you’re suggesting isn’t possible, they can’t attempt to display the killing of a person by choking for 5 minutes for realism purposes, but shorten it, because that wouldn’t be an attempt, it would just be unrealistic.

    And scenes like this, show why Craig's was a different Bond. A fight scene that's ferocious, as it is fast-paced (and well edited also). In the end he's, yes, victorious. But note, he's bloodied. The scene that follows (not shown) is also a revelation about this Bond. He's back in his room painfully patching up the wounds from the fight. Brilliant awesome stuff.
    One detail that I either forgot or missed in this scene, the henchman actually is observant. Though Bond and Vesper are putting on a show in the hallway, the henchman is smart enough to notice Bond's earpiece. Now that's something you don't always see.

      I absolutely agree. What I like about Casino Royale is that the villains are not fools, they are fully capable antagonists that can give Bond a run for his money, most of the fights in this film are one on one, the African Warlord and his henchman here and the Carlos guy from the airport chase are prime examples of that. We see how Bond struggled through beating these supposed minor Bond villains, beaten and bloodied. It adds so much believability and realism to the character.

It's not as good as Casino Royale and Skyfall but it's still good and on the high end of the spectrum compared to Spectre and Quantum of Solace. It's worth seeing the film in cinemas, because the presentation (cinematography, editing) and action is fantastic, great side characters (Ana de Armas is perfect), and a tighter cohesive plot. I'd say pacing issues, aspects of the third act (resolution), Rami Malek as the villain are the weak parts of the film. It's far from perfect but I'm just glad the film is out.

However, we have come to expect a more glamourized depiction of Bond, one where he is not bloodied and brushing shoulders with death. Vesper being so shaken yet also brave in the face of this violence is brilliant as well---she's an agent, yes, but not all agents are versed in this kind of violence and seeing how the visceral brutality shocks her is perfect cinema.

    Even though the machete is such an incredibly stupid weapon to use this scene is great and feels realistic

    As Bond's love, Eva Green was so much more believable than Lea Seydoux ... NTTD is a great disappointment compared with CR ...

    Left out the best scene!When Bond slugs down a glass full of bourbon in his bathroom right after the kill.Shaken and strangled but definitely no longer stirring!

    Great fight scene: Bond takes his share of a beating but comes out on top. Much more intense action than previous Bond movies.
