Movies in Review: "Skyfall"

The trailer for this Bond film won me over immediately, just like all the others did, but I was still a little skeptical. I enjoyed Casino Royale, but the second installment with Daniel Craig in the role of Bond, Quantum of Solace, left little to be desired. I was just crossing my fingers and hoping for the best for Skyfall...

Let me just tell you that the opening sequence was absolutely amazing, and was a great set up for the rest of the film to follow...Wow!!! If you go into the theatre to see this, and find yourself tired, the opening scene will have no problem waking you up so that you can enjoy the rest of the movie...yeah its like that. Oh and don't let me forget to mention the titled song for this movie, which is written and performed by Adele. They play it in the opening credits, and its a banger!!!

This installment of Bond had one of the better stories. I loved the addition of Javier Bardem as the film's villain, he was excellent. Javier's character kept the movie interesting, as you anticipated what his next evil move would be. Daniel Craig was great as the character Bond, and I definitely enjoyed how his character was directed in this one as opposed to Quantum of Solace. The only thing that may have irked me a little was the actress Naomi Harris who plays Eve Moneypenny. They tried to make her look sexy, but the result on screen just looked awkward in my opinion. Maybe she should have held back on the "sexy", because it seemed a little forced...ijs.

All in all you will definitely get your monies worth with this one. I went to see it in IMAX and thought it was great. There are some really beautifully filmed scenes in this one, and is filled with enough action to keep you awake through the whole 2hr running time. I enjoyed it and was exhausted by the end...A+!
