SkyFall
To begin with if people are looking for Typical Bond Action/Gadgets .... they are going to be be hugely disappointed. Anyhow the gadget gimmicky that had plagued the pre Daniel Craig movies was already been slowly removed since the first iteration of Craig's 007, however; what for me was more ; how shall I put it ; different was how low on action, and heavy on drama/emotions this movie was. I can positively say that M and Bond shared the most screen time in this movie, (and there was a reason, not spilling out here as a spoiler). Another typical of Bond trademark movie is the improvisation that was missing all together, sure he was able to device plans of escape but that didn't seem to be any thing special. Casino Royal nailed it with just the opening chase sequence .......
Coming to positives, ........ I liked the introduction of Q, and I was not surprised to see that the makers of this movie clearly knew that gadgets are no longer Bond's, virtue, with Q aptly and funnily putting .... "What do you expect, exploding Pens ........ we don't do that anymore"... I personally enjoyed that. Next were the dialogues witty, charming and funny kept the whole premises interesting. Last but not the least, Javier Bardem as the villain, I enjoyed him, how ever again people who have seen him in No country for old men ;would agree that, as a villain here in Skyfall, director was not even able to touch 5% of his performance, what he gave in NCFOM. There he is just phenomenal and sends shivers down your spine with his chilling, cold and ruthless performance.
Anyway all in all it was not my one of the good Daniel Craig movies as Bond, but still worthy enough to applaud it.
