Skyfall was amazing. Best film I've seen this year (yes, even better than TDKR) and poss my new favourite Bond film.

Bk to an old school Bond film, Bardem is brilliant. References to old school Bond but felt a little too long #skyfall #makeupyrownmind

Rupert Bhatia @alfredooo
So the new bond film is different… big change of direction. quite good though.

Skyfall a very strong Bond. Enjoyed that the scale weighted more on story than action, in Casino Royale vein. Performances excellent.

NBTN ‏@Nee_Bytes

Skyfall and 007 - a feast for the eyes on every level. Brilliant stuff! Can't wait to see it again when it's out on official release!

Daniel Krupa ‏@danielkrupa

Well #Skyfall is the best Bond film ever made.

Patrick Ryan ‏@paddyryan007

Early word is that Skyfall is Craig's best Bond yet.

British GQ ‏@BritishGQ

Just seen #skyfall. Daniel Craig is magnificent - you will not be disappointed. Roll on another 50 years of @007

 

[DyeLorean]

Yes

 

[spidey-dude]

just saw the film - going to write my review in a bit but thought Id weigh in with some first impressions

it was brilliant - for me just below Casino Royale (my fav one)

great interpretation of the character, as with CR (and to an extent QoS) far closer to the literary version, and the final 3rd really shows off Bond's intelligence too

the pacing is great - and the cinematography is beautiful, Deacon and Mendez get it spot on creating some of the most exciting visuals ever seen in a bond film

Bardem was great in creating a theatrically weird yet believable villain - and Q was fantastic opposit Craigs Bond creating some genuinely comedic moments


only let down for me was the title sequence (and thats me nitpicking)

 

[DKDetective]

Great to see a lot of very positive feedback. However, can anyone give me the heads-up regarding the reputation of these reviewers? There was a lot of extremely positive tweets regarding TDKR after it came out and we know how that all turned out...

Expected great things from #Skyfall & it really delivered. From the amazing credits, brilliant score, decent villain, great look & homages

Laurence Boyce ‏@LaurenceBoyce

I'll join in the chorus. Skyfall is a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant film and I loved every second

Kelly Race ‏@KellyisaBlade

People at the #Skyfall premiere saying it's best film of the year, better than TDKR! I may have done a small wee of excitement.

Sorry, wrote that post before I saw yours. I was just curious about the hierarchy of professional critics in the UK, as whose judgment can be trusted in terms of making intelligent, insightful reviews. ie. who are the equivalents of people like Peter Travers and Roger Ebert.

Btw, spidey-dude, can you answer a couple of things (in spoiler tags or a PM if necessary)

1. Gunbarrel, tell me everything please...

2. What's wrong with the titles?

3.

Spoiler

How is Ralph Fiennes as Mallory? I know from the Bond on Set book that he is M in the end (with Eve as his secretary, if not Moneypenny?) and has Bernard lee's classic office.

#Skyfall possibly the best bond movie ever.

Melissa Nathoo ‏@MelissaNathoo

Skyfall was incredible! Great story and Daniel Craig on fine form

stuart goodwin ‏@stuartgoodwin

#Skyfall's not just the best Daniel Craig Bond, it's the best since Live And Let Die. Javier Bardem superb, and there's a great surprise

Lean, brilliantly paced and thrilling - Sam Mendes has Bond back on track with Skyfall.

I can't think of a single bum note hit in Skyfall, or a moment wasted. Glorious moviemaking. #Skyfall

OH AND THERE ARE PLOT POINTS TO SPOIL! See it the minute you can. Best Bond Ever. #skyfall http://instagr.am/p/QsoxkrQ5Ca/


Loved the humour being back in Bond. QofS way too serious, great cast too #SKYFALL

Just watched Skyfall it's brilliant. To sum it up in one word FASCINATING

I am a Bond fan anyway, but this... this... I just wasn't prepared for something this good. #Skyfall

Excellent script, great cast, Craig nails the character ... and loads of surprises. I definitely want to see it again. #Skyfal
