Skyfall (2012)

Shootout, car chase, fruit stand being destroyed in the first 10 minutes of the film? This could only be a Bond film. And a great one at that. Daniel Craig returns as Bond, James Bond in the newest in the series and does a superb job. Skyfall follows Bond on his journey of what I like to call redemption. It's hard to talk about this without giving away some spoilers, but it revolves around him trying to prove his role in MI6 when everyone starts to doubt him.

For a 2.5 hour movie, it certainly did not feel that long. The time just flew by. It seems as though there was both too much plot and not enough plot at the same time. There was so much to put into this film that it almost seems like the plot was not developed thoroughly enough. Accolades must be given to Javier Bardem who plays the villain. He was creepy, yet at times you almost pity him. But mostly, like in any Bond film, you just want him to die.
