I had high expectations for Skyfall. Not only in the time of its release, but also by nowadays, it is really well spoken. It is the best one from Daniel Craig, but still, not a very good action movie still.

Javier Bardem makes a great villain. I really liked. It is certainly the best aspect of the movie. His introduction monologue is awesome.

Roger Deakins is responsible for the cinematography. He is my favorite at this job and you can always expect gorgeous scenes. Shanghai is beautifully shot by his eyes.

Sam Mendes is directing now, the action is better. It is not that exagerated shaky cam like the previous films.

The plot is confusing, illogical and ridiculous. I guess I can say this to every James Bond movies starred by Daniel Craig. I did not like Q, boring. The hacking in this film is laughable. Moneypenny is annoying, also, what is it with that name?
M is finally gone. Killing 007 and not trusting him once again to catch the bad guy despite him saving the world countless times is a good choice.

Why does 007 let everyone die? Come on. He could have easily saved that woman if he just did his thing 5 seconds before.

Greatest technology that no one suspects about is a radio with a GPS, wow.

The last act is good, nice explosions and beautiful cinematography. I liked the conclusion. By the way, Ralph Fiennes becomes the new M, but wasn’t his previous ocuppation superior to the one he is now?
