    SkyFall: 2 parts Bourne, 1 part Hannibal Lecter, 3 parts Mission Impossible, 2 parts old-school Bond. Shaken, not stirred.

        @neiltyson Bond is not. He's not terribly realistic; he's the ideal spy-womanizer. Skyfall was better than other recent attempts.

        @neiltyson Except for the last one. That was opinion. Bourne (movies) were largely about meticulously accurate action sequences.

        @neiltyson Including this one. I give Skyfall more points than most recently, but it shouldn't try to be Bourne, it should stay Bond.

        @neiltyson The original Bourne movies (#4 is a wannabe) meticulously played the action sequences. That has NEVER been a Bond movie trait.

        @neiltyson If you think it had Bourne in it, you missed most of the direction and production of Bourne.

        @neiltyson Disagree. SkyFall: 0.5 part Bourne, 1 part Hannibal Lecter, 2 parts Mission Impossible, 2 parts old-school Bond. 2.5 fewer parts.
