    Like 007"s Aston Martin, Skyfall Fires On All Cylinders

    by maltman1175

    One would think that after half a century, we had seen all the gadgets, visited all the locales and experienced all of the Bond Girls. This dynamic and modernly intelligent entry into the Bond franchise retains the charm of early Bond films while continuing to explore the history of the world's favorite spy. After fifty years, Sam Mendez and Daniel Craig remind us why we still love, Bond...James Bond.

    Skyfall

    by GlennSpeller

    Skyfall was not the typical James Bond movie, although it did possess all of the elements that have delighted Bond fans for the last 50 years: suspense, exotic locations, car chases, gadgets, beautiful women, and dry British humor. It also had a dark and gritty feel to it, trending toward the ominous right from the start, where it became clear that this was a "fin de cycle" piece (although I won't spoil the ending by commenting further on that aspect). The new "Q" set an interesting contrast with the aging Bond, and actually drew my younger son in because of this computer savvy newcomer. Revelations about James Bond's childhood added depth to an otherwise mostly two-dimensional character. All in all not a cookie-cutter Bond film, but certainly one of the more realistically suspenseful of the series, at least until the end when M16 should have sent in back up (particularly in their own back yard), but somehow forgot to in the the movie.

    Best Bond Movie Yet!

    by dcox42261

    Skyfall is action packed with a fantastic story line. Daniel Craig is absolutely believable as 007 and Javier Bardem is the perfect creepy villain. A must see for all movie-goers.

    Great Action

    by JamesET

    In my opinion, Skyfall was a better action film than Quantum of Solace. The locations were more interesting and the special effects more compelling. It also had wit and pretty women.

    Good show

    by drjanem

    I enjoyed the action and the characters were fantastic - I didn't know whether to laugh or cry with Bardem (I imagine this must have been extremely fun for him to play). What is missing is the romance and charm that was in Casino Royale - there Bond was tough, charming & vulnerable. Here, he was all business - and Daniel Craig seems to have aged quite a bit compared to Casino Royale. The relationship with Eve was superfluous and M's relationship with Bond seemed very superficial. Some parts of the story were incredulous - how did Bond survive the bullet & fall into the river? Who saved him & why? Maybe this will be fodder for future films. Craig has done a superlative job with his stunts and the Bond 'aura' - hard edged, tough, ruthless, suave and showing no fear. The scenery was fantastic as was the filming. Rather liked the computer network monitoring at headquarters and I actually would have liked more technology like that incredible stuff on '24'. Overall this was an A-.

    Skyfall - Retelling of Bond's Story Now Complete

    by SurveilBy1

    Having seen most of the earlier versions of Bond, this is by far the best. Why? Character development and believable portrayal. This Bond, this villain, this M all take their characters to a deeper level. You can see the circumstances that led them to be who they are, and feel for them all the more because of it. It's less about being 'hot and sexy', less about 'cool gadgets and cars' and all about human motivation; what drives people beyond their ordinary (or not-so-ordinary) limitations to reach beyond themselves to reach their goals, good or bad. That is what makes this movie a keeper. Not for little kids, no nudity or gratuitous sex scenes. There is violence.

    Different Pace!!!!

    by ShaundellisTheOne

    Daniel Craig is a great James Bond and the first films were fast paced with tons of chases, gun fights, fist fights, etc. This film focused more on a story line and digging up "M" past. The film does have it's share of action and Craig gives a nice performace as always as Bond. All in all its a must see...

    Daniel Craig Finally gets to play James Bond

    by katswhim

    I was disappointed in the direction the Bond Franchise chose to go with the last two movies, but something in the trailers for Skyfall tempted me to hope that this would be more of a bond of old then an British Bourne Movie. That hope was fulfilled with the death defying, witty and sexy that has for me been necessary in a Bond film. If you reminisce for the Bonds of old, (especial Peirce -I'm so dreamy- Brosnan) then go and see Danial Craig in his best Bond Film yet,

    Best Bond

    by Markus Ingramus

    This was one of the best Bonds in the series with lots of action but a plot to match. If you don't like change you will not enjoy the movie.

    Bond still delivers

    by Bond Girl 98258

    The show was great! However the projection room had a malfunction during the last action scene (about the last15-20 min. Or so) and i never saw the ending. Very disappointed the Regal 'Cinnabarre' could not get it up and running again. Sat in the theatre for almost a half hour waiting for them to get it fixed-but they couldn't deliver. So people started leaving. Thanks Cinnabarre for leaving me hanging!

    Skyfall doesn't FAIL!

    by

    The best Bond movie i have seen in years, it takes Bond forward and then back to his roots, the new "team" are great, Ralph Fiennes was excellent and he really made the film feel right, M was incredible in this, really showed all her sides. Just a fantastic ride for the 2+hrs and look forward to Craig carrying this forward. I was unsure about Daniel Craig from the last 2 films, felt he was Bond but Wasn't in some ways but now he IS BOND!

    Skyfall

    by johnjanet

    It was everything that expect from a James Bond movie and we all really enjoyed it. Somehow the British just know how to put these spy thrillers together and they work.

    Action packed that keeps you thinking and wanting more.

    by

    Some action movies are all action and no plot. Not SkyFall, if you follow the Bond series religiously like I do, you will appreciate the story-line and not to mention the action that keeps happening.
