Daniel Craig has been the most human of the Bonds. You summed him up in the perfect word: multidimensional. There's something amazingly complex about how Craig's bond was written and performed.

My mother can't stand Bond for the most part, but she'll watch Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace repeatedly. She likes them that much. Then again, we'll also sit down and throw in the Bourne Trilogy for kicks, too.

Can't wait for Skyfall.
