Honest Trailers - Skyfall

I felt distinctly underwhelmed by this film. I thought it was ok but Javier Bardem's character is very silly.

Skyfall was soooo boring, I could not understand what the fuss was about.
Also, Quantum of Solace is really underrated. Sure the name is ridiculous and the plot was incoherent, but at least it felt like it had a purpose and felt like a Bond film (and had some great action scenes). Skyfall didn't feel like a Bond film at all, no matter how many nods to the old days they jammed in it.

Skyfall made no sense.... the super villain has the power to complete his task, but his task is totally inconsequential to everything ... who cares if M dies she's retiring... Bond can't shoot anymore ... it would have been loads better if Bond DIED with the villain and got to go back to being dead. He has no need for the agency anymore, they cannot protect anyone let alone their own agents.

So much money wasted for effects that made no sense even MORE than the usual nonsense... the villain wasnt even a villain he was totally rational... I just wanted to see him and daniel craig make out already

These honest trailer vids just seem so petty and catty to me. I saw the movie and loved it. Bond movies are supposed to be fun, and this one was just as fun, for me, as any other Bond film. It's just a movie. It's a work of fantasy. If the types of things this "trailer" ridiculed bother someone so much, then maybe they should stick to more "realistic" entertainment like Honey Boo Boo, American Idol, or Moonshiners.

So glad to hear I'm not the only person who hated this film, and quite enjoyed Quantum of Solace.

Walking into Skyfall I had the chilling thought that maybe people loved Skyfall because it was stereotypical rubbish. And so it was. The action scene on the bikes was so fucking ridiculous I wanted to scream. Dude crashes over a bridge / cut to him immediately running atop a train. This is after we've been riding around the rooftops for a while. Fucking please.

And they had a fucking Island Lair! An Island Lair, people. In 2012. And this guy had broadband coming out his fucking ears on his abandoned island lair. Like they couldn't have tracked him down when he was doing his evil deeds. Jesus me beads.

I've been disappointed by Bond before, but after a great return to form in the last two, this was hackery writ large.

Quantum of Solace was the complete opposite of Casino Royale. That's why people hated it. QoS returned Bond to his heyday of one ridiculous action scene/chase after another. Good at face value, bad in relation to CR.

I only really liked Skyfall because of Bardem. I was basically giggling every time I saw him because of his introduction scene with Bond.
