Right now, it’s drizzling on Friday evening, November 9, and I’m seated in the packed sports pub just across from the massive cineplex, attempting to relax my mind by looking out the window at the ticket lines and at the teenyboppers, in hooded sweaters, staring at the poster mural of the final Twilight soap opera. I’m drinking a glass of Stolichnaya vodka as I try to grasp the rainfall of images that I remember from the movie just ended.
I have seen minarets in a Turkish skyline. I have seen decrepit buildings in London and crowded passageways of a bazaar in Istanbul. I have seen darkly lit rooms and old secret service officials striding in murky corridors.

I saw Skyfall this weekend and thought it was one of the best Bond films I ever saw
I dont see why it is getting panned so bad. I may actually go see it again
It’s ‘The Mood’ man, the mood. This was dark - and the ending was - physically. Bond is not dark - he is daylight!
Panned? It’s at 91% on RottenTomatoes.com. I’m a huge Bond fan. I’d say it was better than Quantum of Solace by far, but not as satisfying a total package as Casino Royale. Visually, Skyfall is easily the most impressive Bond film, but I found the pacing slow and the story thin. I get they were trying to emphasize more characterization, but the plot could have used more twists and turns.
This guy just likes to hear himself talk or read what he writes.
G/F wanted to perk me up after Tuesday’s abortion and treat me and go see this movie. I said no. Don’t care and don’t want to give a penny to Hollyweird.
Worthless, way, way overly long review.
Can’t speak to the movie. If it’s as bad as this review I won’t waste my time.
One of the series worst efforts and I like Bond movies. My butt started hurting within the first hour and then I dozed off twice. The beautiful women ain’t so beautiful, the gadgets consist of one cigarette lighter transmitter and the bad guy is a peroxide fag that. The one “wow” was when Bardem took out his dentures..
The hype is all that drives this movie through the box office.
I gave it a C-
I hate this guy as James Bond. He’s basically the anti-James Bond.
Wow. This guy knows alot of words and I think he used them all in this article. Read nearly half and have no idea what he thought if the movie.
I agree...one of the best.
Yes, there was a noticeable lack of gee-whiz gadgets. There were some implausible scenarios, and the villain was still cartoonish.
Still, the action sequences were very well done, and there was more than enough unexpected turns to keep the story interesting, if not riveting.
This might be the reason:
Just as surprising, I have seen a bushy blonde wig on a greasy gay foreigner, who happens to be well equipped to conduct cyberterrorism from a ruined island. It is he who is the villain (though upon his introduction he resembles a hairdresser), flaunting homoerotic impulses in one of the kitschiest performances in the last 182 years. These scenes, these smattering of images, collide and whirl with my sense impressions to constitute the latest Bond film, Brokeback Skyfall.Some people, prominent in the entertainment industry, may be distressed at a flamboyant gay man being cast as villain.
It’s a British movie nothing to do with Hollywood..
Skyfall is the twenty-third spy film in the James Bond series, produced by Eon Productions and distributed by MGM and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
