Skyfall** (12A)

GB/US 2012.MGM/Columbia/Eon. 143m. ws

Bond is shot in action and returns to find a sadistic ex-colleague is terrorizing his bosses.
An atmospheric melodrama characteristic of this Oscar-winning director, allowing for some strong performances with some relatively minor Bond formula trimmings. Hardly quintessential Bond, and lacking a considerable amount of plot logic, but several points up from Quantum of Solace.
