Skyfall...probably the best Bond movie ever...!!

Rating: 8/10 (11 November 2012)

After watching Daniel Craig in "Casino Royale" and "Quantum of Solace" I used to frequently think he is so apt conceiving the image of Bond as a no nonsense yet captivating guy..now after watching "Skyfall" i am pretty sure that he is one of the best to portray Bond even in the league of Sean Connery I would say..
Now if you are a great fan of the "Bond gadgets" you would be a touch disappointed with Skyfall, just because there is nothing much of it..also the length of the movie is about 2.5 hours which is not normal for a James Bond movie. But all these "faults" (if you would call them) gives away to the extremely well crafted movie that is "Skyfall". The script is a winner all the way along with the performance of the lead actors.
Craig is just superb as Bond with is now-famous rugged looks and the dialog delivery and as always he excels in the action sequences which are choreographed superbly. When you say about performance you would not want to miss to mention about Javier Bardem who plays the Villain in the film and that of Judi Dench as "M". Bardem stands equal to Craig and is undoubtedly one of the best villains in the Bond movies. Judi Dench has an extended role in this compared to the previous ones and she does a fantastic job with it.
Bond girls were a let down though I have to say...Naomie Harris doesn't have any chemistry with Craig and is a let down with regard to her performance. It was fascinating to see the script focusing about Bond's childhood and showcasing the affection and respect Bond and "M" has towards each other.
Even though I felt the climax a bit dragging it was not at all a flaw considering the whole package was just awesome..
