Review of Skyfall (2012) by Anand V — 12 Dec 2014
One of the best James Bond films of all time, and one of my new favorites; I enjoyed this even more than the brilliant Casino Royale.
The late Roger Ebert had it right in his review of this magnificent film:
"In this 50th year of the James Bond series, with the dismal "Quantum of Solace" (2008) still in our minds, "Skyfall" triumphantly reinvents 007 in one of the best Bonds ever. This is a full-blooded, joyous, intelligent celebration of a beloved cultural icon, with Daniel Craig taking full possession of a role he earlier played well in "Casino Royale," not so well in "Quantum" -- although it may not have been entirely his fault. Or is it just that he's growing on me? I don't know what I expected. I don't know what I expected in Bond No. 23, but certainly not an experience this invigorating".
