By Rene Rodriguez, The Miami Herald –
SKYFALL (PG-13): The 007 series takes a huge leap in quality under the director of Sam Mendes (“American Beauty,” “The Road to Perdition”), who pays as much attention to characters as he does to enormous action set pieces. Daniel Craig and Judi Dench return as the playboy secret agent and his by-the-book boss. Javier Bardem joins the ranks of all-time best Bond villains as man with a curious sense of humor who has a personal beef against the hero. Roger Deakins’ exceptional cinematography easily makes this the best-looking Bond of all. Start lining up now.
Also opening: Daniel Day Lewis plays the 16th president in Steven Spielberg’s much-anticipated LINCOLN (PG-13).
