THE REEL DEAL: by Ben Show

Movie Reviews Especially for Teens & ‘Tweens

SKYFALL

 ‘Skyfall’ is the 
crescendo of the James Bond 
series. It is the best one yet 
and again Daniel Craig proves 
that he is the perfect super 
spy.

 It’s an average day 
for Bond: he’s chasing down 
a bad guy in a far away 
country, trying to retrieve a 
list of MI6 operative’s names 
and their cover identities. He 
has help from Eve (Naomie 
Harris), a well prepared field 
agent. However, things go 
wrong when Bond and the 
villain take the battle to a 
train heading through the 
mountains. Eve is set up to 
shoot, but the shot isn’t cleat. 
M (Judi Dench) tells her to 
shoot, she does, and Bond goes down. Within days, an attack 
directed towards M is launched and MI6 is turned upside down. 
Where is Bond and who has the nerve to take on M and MI6 head 
on?

 I won’t spoil anything, since this is a movie I think 
everyone should see, but rather the story focuses more on M and 
her past relations than Bond. Yet, both Bond and M tango with 
death, power, and their clouded pasts in the greatest Bond movie 
ever made. Let the sky fall.
