No Time To Die

Gosh, I thought it was rubbish and didn’t really enjoy it at all. In fact I would have left if I hadn’t of been trapped in by a row of grannies.

I thought the characters were weak, the woke bits felt tokenistic and not well rounded. I thought the Bomd girl looked like Bridget Jones in those swinging white jeans and M&S style sandals! Not enough glamour, passion or excitement for me!
I do agree we didn't get enough glamour that's true.

Would have preferred Ana De Armas to play a bigger part
 
I can't believe they killed off Blofeld. Arguably one of Bond's best villains.

After all that time, effort and money they spent trying to acquire the rights from the McClory estate to be able to use the character again - they get rid of him after two films.

If Christoph Waltz didn't want to play the character again, just do like the old Canon - a new actor.

Blofeld was written in the novels as a master of various disguises.

Given what happened at the end of the film, they will just reboot if they want to use Blofeld again. But quite frankly we need a few films without Blofeld otherwise you're just making the same film every time.
 
I did not like it. Maybe it was because all the reviews I read online were so positve and all my friends loved it but I was very disappointed. It just felt very unoriginal, some of the characters were very shallow (Safin and Madeline especially!) and overall it felt all a bit rushed. The action scenes however were impeccable and to think they were all shooted without cgi is just mind blowing.

I thought it was alright, though Casino Royale and Skyfall are my favourites from the group.

I wasn't really convinced by Safin is an antagonist, and friends I've spoken to didn't like the addition of Matilde - they felt manipulated by it, but I wasn't too fussed. It didn't feel too in-your-face re: wokeness - I was expecting worse! The soundtrack using music from OHMSS *chefs kiss* the Billie Eilish main song was totally forgettable.
 
I think they will go for young James in the next casting and set it all up from the beginning.I loved Nomi’s wardrobe she was the most stylish 😍
 
Loved it big time Bond fan and it zoomed by considering how long it was loved it so much seen three times the most I've ever gone back to see one at the cinema s.
It was funny , amazing stunts , perfect direction, wasnt woke in the slightest, just a great Bond movie.. I think in time it ll be seen as a classic. Loved it all
 
Who do people think they will have as the next 007? These are the favourites, as much as I love them, Tom Hardy is too famous, I think Idris Elba is too old, I don't think they'll have a woman I think this film was their nod to a female 007.

Passable, but didn't really like it. The Craig films have been so variable with some amazing ones followed by a stinker. And this one is distinctly in the middle.

Did covid stop them from reshoots or something? It was too long and seemed off at times with bits missing - like so much post covid stuff where the pacing is off.

There was such high hopes after his first one that it was entering a new era, disappointing to end it on this.
 
This was average to disappointing for me. Visually brilliant, but that's where it seemed all the effort went.

I really like Daniel Craig as bond but his movies have all been fairly average to poor. Not helped by them having to have one story woven through all the films which just doesn't work. Spectre has to be one of the worst ever and this was at least better than that.

The villain was very weak and barely in it, the doctor would have made a better villain on his own. The story itself felt slim, they didn't commit to either being an emotional based story or an old fashioned style bond with hidden hideouts so it averaged in the middle.

Not sure what was woke about it tbh. I quite liked 007 but she didn't have a lot to do. The main bond girl was as weak as she was in spectre, zero screen presence. I think 007 as a bond girl and the brunette who was barely in it would have made better bond girls on their own if they'd had more to do.
