Rating: 10/10 (27 February 2013)

Bond is back and he's bigger, better and bolder than ever in Skyfall. Skyfall is the 23rd installment of the movie franchise that revolves around the exploits of British Secret Service agent James Bond. Daniel Craig delivers his best performance yet as agent 007 in this international action packed thriller.
Craig, whose previous outings as James Bond were Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, steps up the level of intensity for the character based on the Ian Fleming series of spy novels. Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) plays the villain Raoul Silva, and is especially chilling as the psychotic former MI6 British agent turned cyber-terrorist, now out for murderous revenge against "M", the head of MI6. Screenwriters Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan deliver a script that is arguably the best the 007 franchise has seen in years. They've turned the James Bond character into one that is a more credible and less tongue-in-cheek. They have also given Skyfall a plot that is exciting yet believable, void of too many gadgets and quick one-liners. While all of the gadgetry and comedy are not totally gone, they are well placed and an appropriate break from the level of seriousness that this movie maintains.
British singer Adele sings the title track for Skyfall during the mesmerizing opening credits that have delighted James Bond fans for years. Well choreographed action sequences and unique filming locations provide the film with stunning cinematography that is pleasing to the eyes.
You don't have to be a James Bond fan to enjoy Skyfall, action fans of all ages will be pleased with this movie and will leave the theater anxiously waiting for James Bond #24.
