Skyfall

After work this evening we all went to the cinema to see the new James Bond film, Skyfall. I'm a big fan of the James Bond films so I was really looking forward to seeing the new one, after all the hype and adverts about it.

I enjoyed the film very much, but I still think Casino Royale is the best. For me, Skyfall didn't seem like a Bond film with not much glamour, hardly any Bond women and not that much action, although I thought the ending was very good. I wasn't keen on Javier Bardem's blond hair either! Rather than him being a menacing baddie, I thought he came over as a bit ridiculous!

There were also very few glamourous locations with a lot of the action taking place on our own British soil. I did think, though, that the opening credits were some of the best I've ever seen and Adele's voice was beautiful. I also liked the fact that the Aston Martin from Goldfinger made an appearance but I wasn't that happy with what happened to it at the end! I just hope it was a model!

After the film we all went off to Pizza Hut for a meal and the restaurant was very quiet indeed, despite it only being 8.30pm. We shared two large pizzas and indulged in the ice-cream factory...it's back to the gym tomorrow!
