Skyfall had me falling in love with Daniel Craig's James Bond!!

Rating: 10/10 (12 November 2017)

I give this one 12 glowing flaming Meerkats for its music, casting and yes, even sickness of it all, (Long story about the Meercats I'll tell you about one day.
It was invented by my life coach and crazy "bastid" friend (I spelled it that way on purpose, so don't tell me how to spell "bastard," please.)
Forgive me for what credits I didn't mention. I hope to correct that by adding some another time.
Since 1964 and Goldfinger, when I was not yet 14 that summer, I have been a die-hard fan of 007! Even Roger Moore had some great ones without Jaws and stupid jokes and some great themes, but Daniel Craig won me over as Bond I even now have the hots for the new black Moneypenny.

The only thing I didn't like, was the killing by the villain of one beautiful woman whom he shot dead, but I understood why the bad guy needed to do it, just to mess with our hero. But it was very good to see Javier Bardem get killed by James Bond There are bits of every decent Bond movie starting with From Russia With Love, to Goldfinger, Thunderball and even On Her Majesty's Secret Service in this thrilling, nail-biting 50th Anniversary Movie.
One thing I caught only a few days ago, was Judi Dench's (M) mention of her "late husband" who could only have been Bernard Lee, the Original M, Admiral Sir Miles Messervy. That made me cry even more while it thrilled me to the bone. And yet she (Teresa, I believe) died in Bond's arms the way George Lazenby's Bond (and less then stellar acting in OHMSS) bride died (Diana Riggs, in this case whom would have been wonderful had it been Sean Connery in the flick.)
No more spoilers...
The theme was singable and memorable as well, and I'm glad it won an Oscar which Goldfinger should have gotten)
You know, I really wasn't fond of Craig in the beginning, but I changed my mind after the second time I watched his first film Casino Royale. Now, I'm a die-hard fan forever! Especially after I found out that Mr. Craig did most of his own stunts!
Spoilers...
Ewan McGregor as the new M was perfectly cast, but I am still sad at the loss of Madame Judi Dench though I know she had lost most of her sight and has gotten quite old.

After I saw some reviewers "hating" this motion Picture, I wondered who asked them? Stupid people, if you ask me.
I mean, what is here to hate about this amazing Motion Picture? The answer?... nothing! ...and you can take that to the bank once you look at how much cash it raised,
I'm glad to hear that Daniel Craig will do two more at least, but I'm hoping he will do another 3 before he leaves.
I have watched all of the Bond films, and many, multiple times, but I have also watched a few comedy versions that had their good points. Like "OK Connery" or "Operation Kid Brother" with Sean's younger brother, Neil Connery with a beard and an American dubbed voice - plus many of the actors from the Bond series of the time from Bernard Lee and Lois Maxwell, plus a few villains in the series in those days. It came out about the same time as Sean was doing one of the two films (You Only Live Twice with a in which he was going to leave, but didn't.
It even had Ennio Morricone doing the score with a fun, silly song called O.K. Connery (which makes me have to sing it every time I say "Ok."
I even saw the 67 parody which was really bad, even with Orson Welles and David Niven as Sir James Bond (proving Ian Fleming wrong and so wanting to cast him in the part he was so wrong for the role. Fortunately Peter Sellers was lots of fun as well as Burt Bacharach's music theme which is best without lyrics. Even a strange cameo by George Raft flipping a coin in old 30's gangster attire.
In The 1957 CBS-TV Climax version with Barry Nelson as "Jimmy Bond" as a boring American spy working with British spy "Clarence" Leiter even more dull.
It is only Peter Lorre as Le Chifre who makes the black and white show interesting in an Ian Fleming sadistic torturer scene at the end, making the idea of Lorre in one Sean Connery film perhaps as the Emilio Largo in that film.
A shame that didn't happen.
This film could have bee a great ending to a fantastic series, but James Bond "will return" again, people!
