skyfall

This was my first Bond movie in probably 25 years. It started off with an action-packed scene, but then there was a good hour of boringness and finally ending with some more action. I could have done without the boringness. Like I said, I haven’t seen one of these films in quite a while, but it seemed like they were playing off prior knowledge of the series–that is, here’s the Bond girl, here’s the villain–but without all of the character development. It is well documented that I think most movies are too long. This movie, clocking in at 143 minutes, definitely fits that bill.
