Last Rat Standing: Skyfall

Sam Mendes Skyfall marked a a stylistic departure at a time when the James Bond franchise was undergoing a renaissance with the Daniel Craig era. Mendes took what has always been a series of films that has prided itself on lavish productions and elevated the aesthetic to art. The mise en scene , cinematography and set pieces are spectacular and beautiful in equal measure. But the film has its critics: a somewhat hokey and derivative plot and an unsatisfying albeit beautifully shot final act. But the film also has a powerful emotional theme about family obligation. We also see James Bond at something of a crisis point as he approaches the final stanza of his career and is confronted with his own mortality.
