Plot
When Bond's latest assignment goes gravely wrong and agents around the world are exposed, MI6 is attacked forcing M to relocate the agency. These events cause her authority and position to be challenged by Gareth Mallory (Ralph Fiennes), the new Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee. With MI6 now compromised from both inside and out, M is left with one ally she can trust: Bond. 007 takes to the shadows - aided only by field agent, Eve (Naomie Harris) - following a trail to the mysterious Silva (Javier Bardem), whose lethal and hidden motives have yet to reveal themselves.
Box Office Success
The movie was the top grossing film of last year, making £102 million at the box office
It's Appeal to the Audience
James Bond is a global icon, with its movie series extremely well known and instantly recognisable. Any addition added to the series is an instant success, and leaves opportunities to leave cliffhangers, and therefore make audiences feel inclined to watch the squeal. Also, soundtrack is an important part of a bond movie, with big names recording the title song. For Skyfall, Adele recorded the bond song, which sold millions worldwide, which resulted in the movie being equally successful.
