While the new Bond, Daniel Craig has taken the character back in line with the original intent of creator Ian Fleming, he has also been able to add his own special ways into creating the character.
The storyline and script follow more with the original Bond novels, and rely more on plot than Special Effects. All of the characters and the portrayals are Very Strong. The bedding of the women, more discreet, the social trauma(s) of characters more pronounced. From the sick and twisted Villain (who obviously has gay undertones) was not 'camp' or ridiculous but spot on. M shows a human side, while retaining calm, if a tad manipulative. Bond shows he is real and can have faults.
There are nice subliminal touches to all Bonds past... and bringing alive old bits into the new film. All in all, this film which is Daniel Craig's third time around, can easily be compared to that of Connery's third time bout as well. Like GOLDFINGER, SKYFALL ranks - thus far - as Craig's best... and is an equal worthy to Connery's best against Goldfinger. Kudos also go to the director Sam Mendes who brought a new sleek stylization much like Guy Hamilton. Also, Adele's very memorable Basseyesque song style is fabulous. All in All a Fantastic 50th Anniversary Tribute to the Iconic 007!
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.
