While Adolf Hitler had to content himself with the “Downfall“, for Her Majesty’s secret agent No.1 007 only a Skyfall is approriate. Yes, I’m talking about the new James Bond movie and new he is, or rather old. The new James Bond is old, yes. He is the new hero made-to-measure for the generation of forty+. He has the same problems: He fails ability tests, has to endure smart-aleck younger colleagues, namely Q, and struggles to come to grips with state-of-the-art technology. Apart from that, 007 is catering to the standard issue expectations of Bond fans: he is breaking hearts, saving the world and doing some soul searching in the process, thereby revealing his origins (Scotland forever). The new, old James Bond is any case worth a watch, and definitely a looker for the female audience (so I`ve been told). So, no matter if you like your Martini stirred, but not shaken, or shaken, but not stirred, it´s good for 90 minutes of movie entertainment.
