Skyfall was another complete dud in my string of watching 2012 hit movies. This received more than 90% positive ratings.
But I think you have to be a James Bond fan. I realized about 10 minutes into the movie that I am NOT a James Bond fan, and I actually cannot remember if I ever watched a James Bond movie all the way through.
I was watching this brain-dead. Granted, spectacular special effects, non-stop action, gripping suspense, and the usual sexy girls will provide plenty of reward to the aficionado. But none of the glitz worked on me, and after an hour and a half or so, I had had enough and I turned the thing off.
This is probably a good movie – it got the reviews.
But this is my review, and my rating. And so be it.
Rating: *
