He’s got the tux, the cars, the gadgets, the girls ! James Bond is back and better than ever ! Daniel Craig is back in his best Bond performance to date in SkyFall. On the 50th year of the franchise and the 23 in the series, this is one of the best Bond films yet, and I have seen all of them. The opening chase seen may be the best ever and it sets the tone for a really good spy thriller and pure bond fantasy. Javier Bardem plays the villain in this one. He’s creepy good as the bad guy, making this movie that much better. We learn more about Bond in this film than any of the others as he tries to come to grips with his mortality and the fact that his type of spying has become obsolete due to technology.  A great supporting cast including Judi Dench as M and her superior Ralph Fiennes add their talents in this visually stunning film . There are great shootouts and hand to hand combat sequences in this movie. The flick-o-meter gives SkyFall a five out of five. Sure it falls victim to cliches like implausible escapes and Bond’s ability to dodge just about every bullet fired at him?but if he did get hit, that would be the end of the series, and we don’t want that. This is a terrific movie and If you haven’t seen a 007 film in years, this is the time to jump back in. Let me know what you think.?Head on over to my Facebook page, it’s called TheBrettside, and click like.
