Enjoyed Skyfall a whole lot. It's absolutely beautiful to look at, they give you locator shots to tell you where you are, Bond rocks, the opening chase scene is everything I love about the Bond chase scenes (namely, that they show Bond solving what the bad guy did that was going to let him get away, rather than just teasing us that they were going to catch the bad guy and things happen to let him slip away again and again), the theme song and animations are beautiful, and that house!!! I want to go take a zillion pictures.
Judi Dench is of course amazing as M. Not so fond of Q but that's ok. I get what they were doing. Javier Bardem (so that's what the comment was about "best Bond girl ever" meant) is fabulous as the bad guy.
I don't like that Daniel Craig's Bond gets beat up so much. Bond isn't supposed to get hammered like that. But his suits always look great! And only once did I spot the matte painting background.
