  • Summary


  • Sam Mendes Skyfall marked a a stylistic departure at a time when the James Bond franchise was undergoing a renaissance with the Daniel Craig era. Mendes took what has always been a series of films that has prided itself on lavish productions and elevated the aesthetic to art. The mise en scene, cinematography and set pieces are spectacular and beautiful in equal measure.
    But the film has its critics: a somewhat hokey and derivative plot and an unsatisfying albeit beautifully shot final act.
    But the film also has a powerful emotional theme about family obligation. We also see James Bond at something of a crisis point as he approaches the final stanza of his career and is confronted with his own mortality.
