So, only time will tell if he is any good or not. Growing up with having Pierce Brosnan as the guy who played James Bond, this will take a little getting used to.

So, after looking at the IMDB, I have not seen any of the movies that Daniel Craig has done, so I have no clue what type of actor he is, and how he will hold up in the role.

So, I guess I really shall save my judgement until I see the movie, and then go from there.
