Rating: 8/10 (11 December 2012)

To start, I Just loved the constant references to previous Bond Films. I found it a gripping dirty thriller with great character arcs. Skyfall doesn't have the invention and the pure Terrifiedness your are feeling for bonds life like Casino Royale has, but i must say it is a great ride and entertaining all the way through. So while it was a very good Bond film, I don't think it deserves it's billing as "the best Bond film ever" as it has a few too many flaws for that. It's not even Craig's best Bond outing as the superb Casino Royale still takes that honour but it is infinitely better than Quantum Of Solace, it's just a shame that they couldn't stick to their convictions about taking Bond in that new direction they had done with that gritty Bourne feel running through. Lets hope we have that back in the new one.
