They’ve done a pretty bad job of following up Casino Royale if you really want to be honest.
For the most part, yes. But why did everyone sour on Skyfall? That thing was universally praised when it was released but fan opinion has seemed to do a 180. I still love it.

I like Skyfall and I’d be very happy if every Bond movie was that caliber. But it was really overhyped after it came out. Then people probably started to process the fact that the 2nd Act was The Dark Knight and the 3rd Act was Home Alone. Not to mention we are 1 movie removed from Casino Royale & Quantum of Solace where Craig’s Bond became an agent and then in Skyfall he’s suddenly this old guy who’s lost a step? The ret-con in Spectre didn’t help matters.

The movie holds up very well until they get to Skyfall and then you realize that Bond's plan didn't make any sense and that he actually failed his mission.
Spectre would have been a great movie if the villain was just some guy named Franz Oberhauser with no connection to Bond. They had some pretty good action scenes. The whole "I'm going to kill my father and start a worldwide terrorist organization and torment my sort-of adopted brother, if by some chance he becomes a government agent, because my dad taught him mountaineering" angle has a way of really killing a movie.

Because it’s a fun movie with a rediculous plot that gets harder to look past on successive viewings.
I still appreciate it for what it is.

I thought it was overrated from the start. Silva was a good villain, but it’s just convoluted. Spectre made it worse since somehow Silva is connected with Blofeld.... How?! Silva was a mad dog that was clear in his intentions and only had about 5 guys working for him. If anything, Blofeld would have had Silva killed for blowing up MI6.
