The franchise rebooted with a new star and its first-ever adaptation of Fleming’s first 007 novel. It’s hard to remember now, but there were those who thought Daniel Craig wouldn’t be macho enough to fill Bond’s tux. Instead, he emerged as the best "Actor" to ever play the man.
The gritty, grounded take on the super spy is basically "Bond Begins," using character-driven action and a tragic love story to forge 007 into the killer he is. And there’s the most satisfying delivery ever of the immortal line "Bond, James Bond."
