Skyfall?

[dellzeqq]

Lots of stunts. Lots of locations, most of them geographical mash-ups. Lots of guns. Women looking gorgeous, Bond making out with them despite the difference in their ages. Fast cars. A creepy villain marked by some kind of psychological trauma. A storyline stuck together with sellotape. That's about it. For all the fuss in the press it's a re-hash of the Bond films that went before although......

Getting the vintage Aston Martin out of the garage was just desperate. At that point I thought 'Mendes, pomo ponce or what?'

So..........I may be alone on this one. The ladies loved it. Did you?

I am a lady, I hated it.
It was sooo long, and Daniel Craig doesn't do it for me.
And since when was James Bond his real name??

 

[rich p]

Is it about James Murdoch?

I enjoyed seeing people running and things going bang, I thought it was great, but I didn't go looking for anything other than a couple of hours of people running and things going bang.

The last time I was persuaded to go to the flicks after a gap of some years, it was True Grit. I couldn't understand a word Thingy Bridges was mumbling even though it was deafening surrundsound but the scenery was nice.
Oh, and they don't sell Kiaora any more.

They don't have an interlude either and no one stands for the National anthem.

I loved it! Admittedly I don't get out much these days...

 

[Mugshot]

Gun fights, explosions, car chases, motorcycle chases, fist fights and girls, all before I got to the cinema
I thought it was great and I think Daniel Craig is an excellent Bond, and in the end aren't all Bond films re-hashes of what's gone before? Actually it's not so much of a re-hash come to think of it;
"Were you expecting an exploding pen? We don't really go in for that anymore."

 

[Bollo]

Oh, and they don't sell Kiaora any more.

Our local cinema has a wine trolley for some evening showings. You can stick 3D up your CGI bottom, because wine trolleys are the future of cinema!

My sister was taking the widdle out of me for watching the credits, but >£9 for the cheapest possible ticket I was going to find out who provided backup catering for the third film unit in Tangiers just to get my moneys worth.

Loved it DZ. the best bond ever.

You miserable git.

 

[Legomutton]

I enjoyed it too. Incredible, but not ridiculously so by the standards of action movies, a bit more of a thriller, although the plot was nothing special, and grittier than I expected. And more of a sense of humour than most (who can take Diehard seriously?). Entertaining.

 

[jefmcg]

Enjoyed while it happened, but felt dirty afterwards. Disappointed there was no ball torture sequence ala Casino Royale, but a bit of boy-on-boy action kind of made up for that.

Felt very old, as I used to fancy Ralph Fiennes like crazy.

Spoiler

And a top-notch field agent reduced to being a PA? Roll back the decades. At least it cleared up a question for me, I wasn't clear if she and Bond were supposed to have had sex. But obviously not with Moneypenny.

Of course, it made sense that he was Scottish: he had quite a strong accent in the early films.
-----------------------------------------

Audaciously, Skyfall's most sexually charged moment comes not with the femme fatale at that gaudy casino but during the extended interrogation scene, as Silva runs his fingers across Bond's bare chest, then reaches down to part his legs. "What's your regulation training for this?" Silva teases him. "What makes you think it's my first time?" 007 shoots back – a tacit reminder that he went to Eton after all.

 

[Doseone]

Didn't like it much. Paper thin plot.

Not a patch on my favourite Live and Let Die.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Refused to go. The local premiere wasn't black tie.
