Spy Thriller-"Thriller or that which thrills; spec(slang or colloq.) a sensational play(cf. shocker) 1896 Pall Mall Mag 'Full blown detectives...the sort you read of in thrillers!"-Oxford English Dictionary

Another type of thriller genre is the spy thriller. Every spy thriller needs big drama, fast cars, gadgets and espionage and the James Bond movies are no exception. In essence what happens is someone belonging to some secret agency solves a large problem using any of above components. when the Bond movies first came out their was a buzz about the whole genre what with features like The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, The Prisoner and Get Smart and books like The Ultra Secet and Pearl Harbour: Warning and deception. There was definately money to be made and Pineapple studios cashed in, becoming the home of the double agent. It is the second most profitable film after Harry Potter. They still produce Bond films today; films such as Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.
I think Bond was a big hit with audiences because he's a a daring, hansome character who many men wish they could be and whom many women wish they could be with although he also has a dark side; his willing ness to kill with ease and slight missogeny. These human touches help the vewer to really connect with the character but also show that he isn't just two dimentional.

Cassino Royale, 2006

Directed by: Martin Campbell

Starring: Daniel Craig, Dame Judi Dench and Eva Green

The movie starts in black and white. A man took a lift to his office. A lot of silence while this happens. Odd camera angles make us feel ill at ease. There is no music at this point; It's quiet, too quiet. The man got to his dark office, looked around and saw Bond waiting for him in a chair. The man sat at a desk down and half opened a draw. There is a close up on the draw, there's a gun inside. Because their wearing trench coats it resembles a 60s black and white movie. They exchanged dialogue and then the scene cut to a fight between Jamese Bond and nameless villain. The new scene is a good contrast to the dark office. They're fighting in a white tiled public toilet so the villain must be really out to get James. Ergent music.
Cut back to office. The office worker pulled out the gun that was in the drawer and bond explains that he'd already removed the magazine. the man thinks that Bond isn't there to kill him because double agents(people who've killed at least twice) are the only people that MI5 would send but then again if Bond killed his associate then he could've been sent to deal with this man to be given a chance at double 0 status.
Cut back to Men's toilet fight. James Bond seems to overwelm villain. The villain has dropped his gun and lies motionless
Cut back to the office. We've concluded that this could be Bond's second kill. He dispaches the office worker
Cut back to toilet fight. As Bond turns to pick up his gun the villain starts to sturr. He grabbs his gun(camera become the eye of the barrel) but befor he can shoot Bond does the classic turn and shoot that starts the title sequence.
