Skyfall Review


Bond series is the most awaited action movie from James Bond 007 series. People wait eagerly for the movie to hit multiplexes. Main attractions of James Bond movies are the gadgets, cars, storyline, mission and the action packed stunts.
Beginning of the movie was average, where Bond is on a mission to retrieve vital information about their undercover agents, which has been taken over by terrorists. Its a chip, which contains all vital information. In the process of getting the chip, Bonds assistant shot him accidently. As we know Bond can’t die, he comes back but takes his own sweet time to report to work.
His mission still remains the same to get the chip for the safety of agent and integrity of the nation. Q gives him only 1 gadget a radio transmitter and a gun (which Bond couldn’t use in the movie). Bond leaves for the mission, till this point of time movie is able to retain your attention.
Post interval movie becomes is damn slow and confusing. Bond’s discovers his real mission now. For the first time gay factor was introduced in movie, where as a guy try to seduce Bond. But he shows he loves women more than men.
Bond’s real mission is to save M from an ex Bond agent, who has become psychopath by now. He wants to kill M at any cost to settle his personal scores. Suddenly M becomes the main attraction of the movie on one hand her life is at stake on the other her professional credibility and efficiency.
Bond takes his mission seriously to save M all alone without any gadgets or assistants. Climax of the was totally unpredictable not expected from Bond at all.
I had lot of expectations from Skyfall but it didn’t meet my expectations. After watching Skyfall I feel “Casino Royale” was much better than this. I don’t know but somehow I feel Daniel Crag is not able to maintain the Bondism in Bond series.  Pierce Brosnan’s action scene are still fresh in our memories, he had the charm and elegance to do justice to every shot whereas Daniel  action or romantic scene both are same without much expressions.
Am not sure will I ever go to next bond series featuring Daniel. I feel its high time production house focus on getting a new bond. Movie was total disappointment, with wastage of time and money.
