Skyfall (2012)

- James Bond is out of form

The new James Bond movie tries to establish the next era and still respect the essence of the series. I have to admit I have never been a huge Bond fan even though I appreciate the charming quality and goofiness that was present in the days of Sean Connery and also Roger Moore. I never cared about Brosnan though and "Skyfall" was my first encounter with Daniel Craig. But while I am perfectly happy with Bond's new personification there were no other innovations to be found.
