First impressions on Skyfall

"Skyfall" is truly really great, exciting, impressive, wonderful! After such an intro no further comments should be necessary, but in this case, few remarks are nevertheless in order. Well, Bond goes back to his roots, literally. Finally more scenes are shot in Britain, in London and Scotland. James drives an Aston Martin again, and although he has a fling with a certain beer brand, he also drinks a martini. But, as in previous Daniel Craig parts, also here, Bond is more human. A flesh-and-blood agent, although not deprived of his unique and traditional style, class and sense of humor. I was really excited to see blond Javier Bardem as the bad guy, and he is also one of the highlights of the movie, along with a young Q (Ben Whishaw) and old-school M (Judi Dench). The story is less complicated than with "Quantum of Solace," and it is a real advantage. The director Sam Mendes really hits it off with the 50th anniversary! Let's hope the same crew stays for the next, 24th installment of James Bond's adventures. Oh, and one more thing: finally at the end the board with "James Bond will be back" appeared! How I longed to see that!
