In this new James Bond entry, newly appointed 007 (Daniel Craig) has been reported to find out how many terrorist organizations are financed when M (Judi Dench) and the MI6 know nothing about them. Being put into a high-stakes poker game in Montenegro Casino Royale against stock gambler Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), Bond finds love with the attractive Vesper Lynd.
After a long line of inaccurate performances after Sean Connery, Craig gives just the right Bond personality gentleman spy. The action is terrific, and humor is appealing. Followed by QUANTUM OF SOLACE.

In a desperate attempt to save his loved one, D'Leh (Steven Strait) sets out on a journey to a place where his tribe is being enslaved by pyramid builders who haunt them with mammoths. Evolet (Camille Belle), D'Leh's love interest, is believed to be related with Lordship to the pyramid builders.
With absolutely nothing to rely on here but visual effects, (which are very superior) this epic contains a lousy script and plotline that makes it completely boring. Only a battle finale saves my least favorite film of all time, which was released on my birthday.

In this horror film that basically set the rules for the zombie genre, Barbra Bickering (Judith O'Dea) is chased off from a graveyard to a farmhouse by a resurrected man, and forced to barricade herself inside the house from a swarm of zombies, along with Ben (Duane Jones, the first black man to play a lead role in a movie), and five other people.
When this suspenseful chiller was first released, many people did not want to sleep with the lights off, now many are brave enough to watch this film providing simple entertainment, which led director George A. Romero to stardom. For an extremely low-budget, this scared the crap out of so many people, which more saw than any other film in the year.
