    I haven't seen it, but that track Adele made for the movie is pretty good.

    I've seen it, it's alright, HOWEVER.......

    What I loved about Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, was that they were different, they were more gritty, more like a Bourne or Taken film.

    Skyfall is good but it's a bit like the Bond films of old, with Bond cracking jokes with a few unrealistic scenes.

    I mean the first two Craig movies were supposed to be taking Bond in a new direction and this one was more like an old Bond film, so take of that what you will..

    I liked it a lot. I wasn't a fan of the second one, but this one gets it back on track.

    I agree with Flagg that they squeezed too many corny one liners in. I think they are trying to keep some ties to the old movies, but it is too much for me because I always hated the corny jokes in the old movies too. I am sure there are some that love those silly jokes, but they don't seem to fit into Craig's otherwise very stoic Bond.

    Good movie, saw it last night.

    Definitly not as good as Casino Royale and Quantum. There was definitl some unrealistic scenes.

    There first two were much more realistic.

    You know like 20 years ago, I would never listen to something like that and now I cruise around with 94.7 The WAVE in my car (that song is in heavy rotation).
