James Bond gets the creative refreshment he needs.

007 has gone through quite a lot in his 50+ years of cinema; and Skyfall, believe it or not, is one of the all-time high points for the character. Skyfall actually shows Bond getting HURT, instead of being this invincible superman figure we're so used to seeing all the time and getting bored of. The scale of the adventure is big, memorable and very British (something you don't usually feel in modern blockbusters). Daniel Craig is very good here and it seems like this SHOULD have been his last Bond feature in his contract because Skyfall does have that 'penultimate' feel about it, something that predecessor Quantum of Solace lacked in nearly every way imaginable. I guess Skyfall got everything right considering this was released on Bond's 50th (cinematic) Anniversary, and what a birthday surprise this was for him indeed.
