No Time to Die

[Robert Urbanek]

Recently saw No Time To Die on a DVD from the library. My first thought: Léa Seydoux, as Madeleine Swann, looks a lot like Christina Applegate; Kelly Bundy as a Bond girl. Yikes!

A very derivative story. What, another villain with his own island? The title score is forgettable, and they borrow music from the old Bond film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Given the ending, I must assume any more Bond movies will be prequels.

The future Bond movies will just ignore No Time To Die in the same way recent Halloween movies ignored the previous ones. I wish I could forget the movie myself.

Spoiler: Spoilers

Somehow, for 60 years, the Bond franchise has been able to avoid involving children in their villain's plans for worldwide domination and enslavement. But they decided to do it this time around. Not only was it distasteful but it was a stupid plot device considering that Bond had just met this girl in the previous lackluster film, Specter and he's still hung up on Vesper Lynd.

No question the worst Bond film ever made.

If it is the last one that would be a good thing at this point

My take was that they would just start a female Bond with the woman and girl, you know, that is PC to do now.

But as I said, hopefully they will just let it go and not try any more, not that anyone tried with that particular movie.

I hadn't even watched it and I probably won't ever see it.

The last good bond movie was goldeneye. Casino royale wasn't too bad but really if it weren't for madds mikkelsen I probably wouldn't have liked it at all.

It can't be because I don't like Daniel Craig because I like him in a lot of other movies, I even liked him in Saturday night live he hosted. The whole bond franchise seems way too polished, safe and non offensive.

Bond used to be a serious man. As in Man. He drank, he smoked, he gambled, he kicked ass and he had stellar sarcasm. Bring back that toxic masculinity.

Good movie, not the best Bond film. The opening action scene and the stair climb action scene kicked ass. Some of the trademarks of 007 are missing, in some ways reminds me of Top Gun Maverick, something empty there. Probably much better in the movie theater.
