Skyfall

On Tuesday, November 27, 2012, I went to see the latest James Bond movie, Skyfall.  This movie features Daniel Craig as Bond, Javier Bardem as Silva, Judi Dench as M, etc.  This movie is a spy action flick.

The movie starts off with Bond and another agent, who is in pursuit of someone who killed a whole bunch of MI-6 agents to get at a hard drive with information of all of the undercover agents and their identities.  They are trying to recover the stolen drive, but due to circumstances, they are unable to do so...  And in the process, Bond is shot.

Thinking that Bond is dead, M writes an obituary for Bond and sells all of his belongings.  We think that the information on the hard drive is not important, until the MI-6 headquarters in England get bombed...  It is when 007 sees this on the news that he returns to report for duty.

He had to take a bunch of aptitude tests.  After, M states that he passed by the skin of his teeth so he will be able to continue his field work.  After he exits the office, we learn that Bond had actually failed his tests (important later).

With a lead to Shanghai to find the person who stole the hard drive, Bond tries to do his job and find out the information about who stole the hard drive.  His instructions were to terminate the killer after he gives this information, but that doesn't happen.

What happens next?  You'll have to watch the movie to find out!  I really enjoyed this movie, however, so it's a worthwhile view.  I saw it in IMAX and it was great.  I also thought that the story line was well laid out and that 2.5 hours is really not that long for this movie.
