It had a very limited cinema release, but as Stephen mentioned is already out on DVD and Blu-ray.
I watched the BD last week. I loved it

Incidentally, the Daniel Craig iteration of Bond is the only iteration I can say this about, I have thoroughly enjoyed all the other bond films, even OHMSS but I just can't find ANY enthusiasm for Craig in the role, his only facial expression seems to be that of 'Man trying to excrete a pineapple sideways' combined with the personality of the aforementioned pineapple.

Re: Films for 2012
I'm surprised that every time bond changes people try to compare them to previous bonds.. As each new actor came to the role they brought a totally different style and personality to a role that is also dictated by the storyline, scriptwriters and director of the time it's produced..
I tend to take each new bond as a whole new character and have found DC to be rough around the edges with a newbies arrogant attitude which suits the reboot that they gave the series when he started,especially remembering that he only just gets his '00' status at the start of Casino Royal.
Next you guys will be comparing the 1967 Casino Royale with the 2006 version

Re: Films for 2012
I try not to compare the bonds, rather the film as a whole based on the entertainment value, and I just cannot get into the DC version of the role.
I enjoyed every other iteration, Sean Connery, Roger Moore, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan but not Daniel Craig.
As for comparing it to the 1967 Casino Royale, the only 'bond' part of that comedy was the name of about half the characters.
