Django
Well, QUENTINO TARANTINO IS BACK! Django Unchained — the ‘D’ is silent — is his eighth film and maybe his most controversial yet. It’s a violent and very, very long ode to B-westerns set during the slavery period in the deep south.

Skyfall
Well, it took 50 years of Bond, 23 films, 6 actors, dozens of Bond girls and 100s of incredible stunts, but Skyfall might just be the best Bond film of them all. It may be too early to say, but it just might be the very best. It’s certainly in the top 3 or 4. read Shannon's full review here.
