Re: Bond 23: Skyfall
Yes, his character makes some downright counterproductive choices, killing baddies when he would have benefited from keeping them alive, but his character otherwise acts like James Bond.
He charms the hell out of the horse-riding girl on the beach, as well as Vesper. He's cool and slick in all social situations, which was something Skyfall lacked entirely. He's clever and smart and uses his brain often (none of those things occur in Skyfall). He even ordered the "Vesper martini" pretty much the same exact way as in the original novel.
In Casino Royale, Bond is actually Bond. He's a bit more thuggish, but he's still Bond.
There is no character in Skyfall the resembles James Bond in any other way than props and name.
