His performance is equally as creepy and twisted as his portrayal of Anton Chigurh in 'No Country for Old Men' and it is an Oscar worthy performance in my opinion. Javier Bardem plays a blood thirsty ex-MI6 agent out for revenge. Aside from Daniel Craig, you have a cast that includes some of the finest actors that have ever graced the big screen. Whether you can admit it or not, you are in a dark place and that is exactly where this Daniel Craig portrayed Bond is.

I don't care who you are or what your background is, if you are drinking by yourself in a bar, then you have issues that are haunting you. One of my favorite scenes is where Bond is sitting in a bar drinking alone. I will always choose a darker portrayal over a comedic one because it takes a certain mindset to depict someone of that nature. Sean plays the comedic, smooth, and witty Bond to perfection while Daniel plays the mysterious, dark, and lonesome secret agent flawlessly.

Although I've always been the one to say that Sean Connery is the greatest Bond ever, I can now confess that Daniel Craig now holds that honor. Where he came from and what made him the person he is today. So what does Skyfall have that the other Bond films don't? For the first time, we get a glimpse into our mysterious hero's dark past. Big explosions, ridiculous stunts that not a single person in the history of humanity can survive, and let's not forget to mention the beautiful women that would make both genders stop and stare. This film has all the constituents from the Bond films that have preceded it. It strayed away from the storyline of the previous two films and I couldn't have been happier after the mediocrity of Quantum of Solace. As a lifelong James Bond enthusiast who has been extremely disappointed with the franchise's latest efforts (with the exception of Casino Royale), I was extremely pleased with this film.
