Skyfall! The Bond movie that lots of people loved and some people were mad for one reason or another. So pretty much like most movies! Will it still be regarded better than No Time to Die? Here's everything right with James Bond in Skyfall!

  • I always thought the "waste of good scotch" line was him suppressing his emotions so that he could move on as quickly as possible.

    • Yeah, like Silva he is playing the role and hiding his true emotions, which he does every single time he is on screen except for when Vesper dies. This is his disguise, which he wears over the feelings underneath.

    • In my option Skyfall is the best James Bond film. Not the greatest the best. Celebrating 50 years of the iconic franchise with many nice nods and references to all the films. Narratively it’s the most diverse with Judi Dench delivering an endearing performance, with her character being at the centre of the story. Bond goes through many challenges, him seemingly falling to his death only to be reborn and face a threat who has also returned from darkness, makes its a very metaphorical experience. There’s this elusive subtext within the rivalry of Bond against Silva. The character is stripped down to his bare necessities, he loses that “panache” his skills become rusty and his overall competence is questioned throughout. More importantly he has to confront his past and revisiting Skyfall gives the character some much needed depth. I love how Sam Mendes broke the traditional formula of a bond movie and made it a visceral experience. The action is smoothly paced throughout its lengthy running time, never feeling like too much or too little. The script is written with labyrinth effect. The set pieces are highly original, not typically exotic or fancy rather refined and profound. I love how it retains bonds British roots with the majority of the film taking place in the U.K. Bond overlooking the Skyfall landscape with the Aston martini behind him, is one of the most iconic moments in the series period. Finally i adore the emotionally impactful climax where M succumbs to her wound. Bond shedding some tears at her passing whilst also blowing up Skyfall makes it the most compelling climax to a bond film I’ve ever seen. And Javier Bardem was the perfect villain for the story. Not motivated by manipulating state of the art satellites or controlling the worlds oil supply, rather the simplest and best motivation a villain can possess - REVENGE! Yes Skyfall is a thinking man’s bond film. It’s certainly one for the ages.

    • Completely agree. I do find the shower scene earlier tone deaf - bad enough to nearly completely derail the film - but this line is definitely indicative of the journey that Bond is going on, of recognising just how far he had gone and how many lives he'd sacrificed. It's still ugly and arguably needlessly fridging yet again, but the line - and the acting - is still more meaningful than is given credit here

  • I love how this movie is very much an anti-Bond movie, really doubling down on the almost sociopathic nature of the character. It doesn't try or want to make an excuse for all the killing, sexism and other bad traits Bond has, it just shows it all and wants you to know that Bond really isn't a hero of any kind. He's just a guy who loves violence, alcohol and sex and is really good at commiting violence. It still blows my mind that after more than 20 movies this one just tells the audience thatr they shouldn't worship Bond because he's almost as bad as the villain of his own story.

    • In my option Skyfall is the best James Bond film. Not the greatest the best. Celebrating 50 years of the iconic franchise with many nice nods and references to all the films. Narratively it’s the most diverse with Judi Dench delivering an endearing performance, with her character being at the centre of the story. Bond goes through many challenges, him seemingly falling to his death only to be reborn and face a threat who has also returned from darkness, makes its a very metaphorical experience. There’s this elusive subtext within the rivalry of Bond against Silva. The character is stripped down to his bare necessities, he loses that “panache” his skills become rusty and his overall competence is questioned throughout. More importantly he has to confront his past and revisiting Skyfall gives the character some much needed depth. I love how Sam Mendes broke the traditional formula of a bond movie and made it a visceral experience. The action is smoothly paced throughout its lengthy running time, never feeling like too much or too little. The script is written with labyrinth effect. The set pieces are highly original, not typically exotic or fancy rather refined and profound. I love how it retains bonds British roots with the majority of the film taking place in the U.K. Bond overlooking the Skyfall landscape with the Aston martini behind him, is one of the most iconic moments in the series period. Finally i adore the emotionally impactful climax where M succumbs to her wound. Bond shedding some tears at her passing whilst also blowing up Skyfall makes it the most compelling climax to a bond film I’ve ever seen. And Javier Bardem was the perfect villain for the story. Not motivated by manipulating state of the art satellites or controlling the worlds oil supply, rather the simplest and best motivation a villain can possess - REVENGE! Yes Skyfall is a thinking man’s bond film. It’s certainly one for the ages.

  • imo the "waste of good scotch line" should have been a win. This is Bond unwilling to show regret, even when a woman he cares for is murdered because he couldn't protect her. It's a shame for sévérine to be killed so early, but Bond's quip isn't just a way to disarm Silva, it's moreover Bond being unwilling to admit to feeling grief. Sure he didn't love sévérine, but it must have hurt him to see her killed - especially since he promised to save her - so rather than express remorse, even to himself, he hides behind gallows humour to pretend that he is an emotionless agent, which definitely isn't Craig Bond. This contrasts nicely with Silva, who has embraced his emotions and acts entirely on regret, and loses because he cannot detach himself from his emotions and plan dispassionately the way that Bond/M can

If Bond had his the glass, Silva maybe wouldn't have fired his shot, because the game as implied would be over. If Bond misses, Silva fires his shot, leaving him with an empty gun when Bond decides to take out the guards. Missing was the best play, and I believe he did it on purpose knowing this, since as soon as Silva has no shot left to shoot he makes his move.

Post-Casino Royale Bond is just a misogynistic scumbag, broken by the betrayal of the only woman he truly loved. The shower scenes parallel each other as one shows bond being empathetic and vulnerable, while the other shows him as selfish and uncaring. It's not until Spectre that he finds someone to truly love again and be a better person.

Because of M's death he stops making excuses and steps up to be the agent M knew he could be.

  • Everything about this movie was awesome. But the old school Bond car with the classic Bond theme was the best part! It pushed all my nostalgia buttons without being gratuitous nostalgia for its own sake, it fits with the theme of old-school vs new-school that was present during the whole movie. I love how the new Q sees Bond as a bit of a relic then comes around and how Bond sees Q as a toddler at first but also comes around. That was also well done and not in-your-face. It's easy to just say "We want these characters to not like each other at first but then they gain each other's respect and end up liking each other"

  • I'll miss Dame Judi Dench as 'M', and I'll miss Daniel Craig as Bond just as much. I've always been partial to 'Casino Royale' as my favourite Bond film because it was the first one to truly make me appreciate the franchise, but 'Skyfall' is just BRILLIANT. Supremely well acted, incredibly well shot, and with high stakes that were personal enough to actually matter.

  • CinemaWins Fan fun fact and advice of the day (Yes, I'm referencing my own comment from a few years ago): the music that plays during the drive is called simply "Skyfall", and if you want to enjoy it to its fullest, listen to it climbing up a mountain. One of the greatest moments of my life, as I sat at the peak looking at the English countryside listening to it.

    • There's a lot of greatness to Spectre, but a lot of wrongness, too. The base story of Bond slowly but surely reopening himself to human relationships and love while having to also take on the most dangerous organization he's ever encountered is a great one, and is honestly the best-done part of the movie. His whole "technically gone rogue, but all his friends who are actually his friends back in MI6 are still helping him regardless" is also great. There are also a bunch of great sequences and shots throughout. But then there are points like the somehow actually boring car chase when Bond is escaping the SPECTRE meeting; utterly underutilizing Dave Batista as Chief Goon (he's a great goon, but the man can act! Let him speak and trade barbs with Daniel Craig, for god's sake!); almost literally copying the character twist of Doctor Evil for this version of Blofeld, and thus spoiling the most perfect casting of Cristoph Waltz, who nonetheless kills it despite a lot of crap material. I've grown less harsh with Spectre, but I also think it was unfortunate for it that it came after such near-perfection in Skyfall. It's a bit like Quantum of Solace; it's a not-as-good-but-still-solid-in-a-lot-of-ways follow up to a movie that was damn near perfect, and because it's lesser to what came directly before, that lesserness makes it feel and seem so much worse by comparison.

  • One thing I liked about this is the kind of circularity it creates for Judi Dench's version of M. Her first appearance in Golden Eye was at the end of the Cold War and she was the person who knows how the world really works coming in to fix Bond the dinosaur. Now 17 years later, as the War on Terror is starting to wear on the West, she's become the dinosaur who no longer understands how the world really works.

    • I was a very young teen when the first Bond played at theaters. Sean Connery is great as Bond, yet I have been won over to believe that Daniel Craig is now the best Bond. In ‘Casino Royale’’, there are scenes that make it absolutely wonderful........ when one of bad guys planted a bomb and didn’t know that Bond had switched it until too late, my oh my..... Daniel’s expression just before that baddie went boom, so great! Another favorite scene is when the defibrillator pads wires were not connected......... WOW, that whole process is impactful!! During the main villain’s ‘Le Chiffe’ (Mads Mikkelsen, such a fantastic actor) scenes, he oozes sinister and evil!! (His portrayal of Dr. Lecter, on the TV series ‘Hannibal’.......... EEK, what a totally awesome performance!!). Edited for spelling,😐!

    • In my option Skyfall is the best James Bond film. Not the greatest the best. Celebrating 50 years of the iconic franchise with many nice nods and references to all the films. Narratively it’s the most diverse with Judi Dench delivering an endearing performance, with her character being at the centre of the story. Bond goes through many challenges, him seemingly falling to his death only to be reborn and face a threat who has also returned from darkness, makes its a very metaphorical experience. There’s this elusive subtext within the rivalry of Bond against Silva. The character is stripped down to his bare necessities, he loses that “panache” his skills become rusty and his overall competence is questioned throughout. More importantly he has to confront his past and revisiting Skyfall gives the character some much needed depth. I love how Sam Mendes broke the traditional formula of a bond movie and made it a visceral experience. The action is smoothly paced throughout its lengthy running time, never feeling like too much or too little. The script is written with labyrinth effect. The set pieces are highly original, not typically exotic or fancy rather refined and profound. I love how it retains bonds British roots with the majority of the film taking place in the U.K. Bond overlooking the Skyfall landscape with the Aston martini behind him, is one of the most iconic moments in the series period. Finally i adore the emotionally impactful climax where M succumbs to her wound. Bond shedding some tears at her passing whilst also blowing up Skyfall makes it the most compelling climax to a bond film I’ve ever seen. And Javier Bardem was the perfect villain for the story. Not motivated by manipulating state of the art satellites or controlling the worlds oil supply, rather the simplest and best motivation a villain can possess - REVENGE! Yes Skyfall is a thinking man’s bond film. It’s certainly one for the ages.

    • And what you said is exactly why this channel is superior to any other movie review/deconstruction channel. Yeah, he's looking for all of the good things, but he won't shy away from the things that are controversial, sometimes even agreeing with some of the sentiment. Other channels just focus on what they're there for, to nitpick and tear down. They rarely find anything positive to balance the negative out. There are redeeming qualities to almost any film, even the stinkers. Even if it's just the musical score, or the cinematography, or the locations they shot the movie in, there are positives to take away from a movie.

It's been a running theme that he's gotten less and less empathetic as the films go on, you can compare it to how he reacted in Casino Royale in the shower scene.
