I really like Daniel Craig as James Bond. He can act, he's good-looking but not too good-looking, and he has this gritty heft that sells the role.

If any of you have not seen Craig's 2004 movie Layer Cake, then

(a) run, don't walk, to a video store and bring it home (1990s)
(b) put it at the top of your Netflix queue (2002)
(c) set your TiVo to record it for you (2004)
(d) download it to your computer/server (2008)

It is an outstanding gangster thriller, one that is so well-done that I enjoy watching it again and again.
