To me, Sean Connery was pretty much James Bond, and then came Daniel Craig in CASINO ROYALE. His take on OO7 was completely different from anyone else who has played him, a combination of vulnerability and lethality the like of which the series has never seen before. Ok, QUANTUM OF SOLACE was kind of a dud, but all of that was forgotten with SKYFALL.
Not to give too much away for those who haven't seen it yet, but SKYFALL wraps of James Bond's "Origin" and gives us the tried and true OO7 we've known for the last 50 years, but in a more ground, less campy way. The franchise has never been stronger, and Craig is well on his way to supplanting Connery as the greatest Bond ever.
The DVD/Blu Ray is out today, and even if you are not a fan of Bond films you may be surprised at how much you like SKYFALL.
