Dark, well made, humorless.

Rating: 4/10 (23 December 2012)

Well made, very entertaining, a good thriller, a good twist on the James Bond legend, but it's almost not a James Bond movie at all. Super action scenes, and it is good that it is not terribly gross or horrifying like many action films are now. It still has gross, bloody and horrifying scenes at times, I miss the times when I was a kid and could easily see all the James Bond movies, now it's almost too gross for a 12 yo, and impossible for a younger kid. Skyfall is lacking in humor, I'd like to see more of the coolness and the humor of the older type James Bond movies. This James Bond is getting very old and depressed and weary. Even the lovemaking scenes were painful, where's the sexiness? Also, I think it is horrible that M was turned into a man again, it was superb to have a female strong personality there. But, the scenes were well made, and kept me and my 13 yo son on the edge of our seats. The film was not all about just bombing and fires this time, it was a good story, keep up the good work there ;) On the other hand, how about less grossness, more humor, more kissing, less depression.
