This book has some amazing photos from the production of the movie. I believe it is a must-have for any fan of this recent movie and a fantastic piece for your collector's item library. I love the picture on the deskjacket and the same picture is on the book as well. Its worth the price for sure. I do wish there were a few more pictures of Daniel Craig though and not so many of other characters but it is in fact a book of photos from the filming of it so that should be expected. The pics are fantastic though and there are some nice questions/comments asked to Daniel Craig in the back that make it even more interesting.. Awesome book.

Photography is a hobby of mine and I found this collection of photographs from CASINO ROYALE to be very insightful. The images are striking, candid and effectively reproduced. This is a quality publication and really makes Daniel Craig look fabulous as James Bond. Craig certainly looks like Ian Fleming's blunt instrument with his rough and roughish looks captured with charismatic fervor in the photographs in this book.

I've always been a Sean Connery Bond man. Some guys are Roger Moore guys...etc..
I even thought Pierce Brosnan was the best since Connery. So when the announcement of Daniel Craig as Bond surfaced I was not too thrilled. But as soon as I saw the movie I was sold! If not actually better than Connery (I'm still debating), he's right on par with a new take.
"Bond on Set" is a great picture essay all about the making of "Casino Royale". It puts you there like a little visit to the set. If you like Bond and if you like the reboot of "Casino Royale", pick it up!

Of all the items out in conjunction with CASINO ROYALE this books ranks amongst the best. The photographs are superb. This book not only captures the mood of CASINO ROYALE but also documents what went one behind the scenes. You get to visually read a lot of what is behind each photo. It is a wonderful book.

This book is a great visual keepsake on the filming of CASINO ROYALE. The images are brilliantly conceived. This is a great addition to the numerous books on the world of James Bond.

This brilliant photographic essay on the filming of CASINO ROYALE ranks amongst the best items available to the public in tandem items with the film's release. The photography is first-rate in every respect. It is a very insightful work.

CASINO ROYALE is one of the best Bond films in years. This is a great book to go with the movie. The pictures are great. Once you see the film you will love this book. It makes a good Christmas present.

Bond On Set: Filming " Casino Royale " by Greg Williams is a sumptuous picture book filled with top of the line art by Greg Williams. The photographs are stunning, some for their stillness and others for their kinetic force.

Mr. Williams gets right in under the belly of the machine as "Casino Royale" was filmed and grabs shots that a Bond fan can only dream of. Fine hard work has paid off in his dedication to the chronicling of this film.

Of very special interest are the comments made by star Daniel Craig about each photograph and what memories they bring up. It is obvious that star and photographer understand each other's strengths and needs in working so closely together under what must have been incredible pressure.

The volume thin though it may be is indeed a small treasure of the meeting of a photo-journalist and artist and the huge cinematic charisma that is Daniel Craig.

This stylish coffee table book is filled with stunning color and black and white behind the scenes shots. The book also contains concise and interesting commentary about the filming of Casino Royale and its various cast members, Daniel Craig in particular. I could not resist buying this book. Not only is Daniel Craig my favorite actor, but I also collect film/cinematography books.

Bond on Set was my Christmas present to myself and I was not disappointed. It's a terrific little memoir of the filiming of Casino Royale. Daniel Craig is extremely photogenic and the shots of him getting ready for his scenes or resting in between shots are great. I especially liked the photos of how scenes were actually done and the two page pictures of Bond's fleet footed adversary were stunning. That guy is in incredible shape. I am very happy witht this purchase.
