“Skyfall” (2012) was a decent flick; I’d give it an 8 out of 10. I love modern movies that give us great action sequences without CGI, or at least without cartoonish and incredibly obvious and transparent CGI. The stunts were great. And it had good acting, good directing and fantastic dialogue. I love the way these characters talk.

It suffers from a comparatively weak third act, and a bizarre villain that is far more irritating the menacing. We see no evidence that the bad guy has the physical or mental characteristics to make him an equal to Bond, which is what the movie suggests. (He’s more like a rich jerk with a lisp who talks too much.)

Also … as the “Honest Trailers” gag points out … what happened to the stolen list? Wasn’t that the point of the movie?
