A film review

I watched Skyfall and I think it is a great film. I like it because it has a lot of action and an interesting story. James Bond has a difficult job because he needs to stop a very dangerous man. I really like Daniel Craig as James Bond because he is strong and acts very well. The music is also very good, and the song by Adele is my favourite. The film is a bit long, but it is never boring. I would recommend this film to people who enjoy action and spy movies.
