“Skyfall”

“Skyfall” is different from any other James Bond movie I’ve ever seen. The music stays true to its roots and is classicly James Bond-esque, including Adele’s “Skyfall.” Bond keeps up with his normal Bond women. The classic As- ton Martin DB5 car makes its sixth return to the Bond franchise. But then every- thing changes. Daniel Craig, the newest actor to take on the role of Bond, dies. But no worries - Bond can’t ever actually die. He comes back just in time to try stopping a cyber- worker from when Bond was a child. It terrorist, Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem). makes the connection to Bond stronger, The catch with this James Bond movie and more glimspes of his past make him is that it’s personal.
