This latest instalment of the James Bond series starring Daniel Craig as our leading super spy has been eagerly anticipated since its first announcement. The hype for this movie has been immense thanks to the non stop advertising, almost as if they were daring us to not like the movie. Lets just say that I won't be casting that stone.
Skyfall roughly picks up where its predecessor, Quantum Of Solace left off. Our thug like spy is crashing through the streets of Turkey in pursuit of a list that was stolen from the MI6 and will expose all the departments undercover agents. It seems however that 007s number is up as a fatal shot to the chest put him MIA and presumably dead allowing the list to escape.
The MI6 have no time to mourn the death of their leading agent as what is thought to be a cyber terrorist with a personal vendetta against M (Judi Dench) is gunning to takedown everything she has worked to achieve. Luckily resurrection is one of Bonds many skills as he comes back to battle in a fight that will lead him back to we're it all began. Bond needs to capture the terrorist, defend his country, save M and get the girl... or two. Its all in a days work.
This movie had a lot more depth than the previous two films, it took the emotion of Casino Royale and vengeance of Quantum of Solace and combined them both and a little more allowing us to view James Bond in a different light. If there really are talks of two more films starring Daniel Craig in the franchise than they'll have to work ten times as hard to top the phenomenon of Skyfall.
To quote Bond himself, I am just going to go ahead and say this movie was "Perfect"
