He was brilliant in Tomb Raider as Alex West, but my favourite film is Casino Royale. I think Daniel Craig is a fantastic James Bond. Halle Berry is American. She was a model, but then decided to become an actress. I like her because she’s beautiful. She’s a good actress and I think she has a great sense of humour. I’m not keen on some of her films, such as Catwoman, but her other films are excellent. My favourite is X-Men which is a science fiction film. She plays the main character Storm, who has the ability to change the weather. Daniel Craig and Halle Berry are both entertaining and talented actors. I love watching their films. Nick, London, UK
