Solid Bond film. I enjoyed it!
"Skyfall" is a solid action flick with Daniel Craig doing his best to fill James Bond's shoes and not disappoint the fans.
Now this is the kind of movies that create fans!!!
Awesome!
After I had seen a Quantum Solace I swore off Bond films for a while. He was such a cold blooded killer in that movie, and Bond movies were always somewhat campy and fun - not that one. I also found some parts laughable, they were so badly scripted. However, my enjoyment of Bond was revived with Skyfall. Here we are having some fun - and surprises, and the actors once more look like they are enjoying themselves. A good romp for everyone.
Like wow Awesome! Like it is the best movie ever! Like wow 11 out of 10, thats how great this movie is.
My favorite Bond movie for countless reasons: cinematography, plot, acting, dialogue, music, etc.
Women as competent colleagues---not just beddable bimbos or compromised spies--is a welcome development for Mr. Bond (the beautiful Naomie Harris plays an amused, aloof Ms. Moneypenny who accidentally shoots and nearly kills him, Bond noting later that to her credit, moving targets are hard to hit.) Bond faces the difficulties of aging prowess, cybercrime, and a weirdly, wonderfully unhinged villain in Javier Bardem. The plot of course has its fantastic elements, where Bond chases villains through visually stunning Turkey, Macau, Shanghai, and Britain, winding up in a scorched earth battle among the heather and the gamekeeper's wry comment: "Welcome to Scotland!". At the end, M's cheap china bulldog carries its symbolism gracefully and powerfully: love of country remains.
I like Daniel Craig's James Bond. The Scottish scenery in this one is worth watching for that alone. Very well done.
Javier Bardem as a blonde was creepy in itself, and made a good Bond arch-villain. Craig was his usual one dimensional self.
