I still really enjoyed it and I think it sits comfortably in the #3 spot behind Casino Royale and Skyfall. I'm surprised by people saying it was unexpected! It felt very obvious and it didn't have the emotional weight they were going for. The final act is a bit clumsy, a bit overwritten and undersold, all the usual Purvis/Wade story problems are back and once again you have to turn off your brain if you want to enjoy it.īond's final fate was signposted from a country mile away (any time a surprise daughter shows up in a film you can guarantee the hero is going to die) and once I heard the OHMSS themes early on, I correctly predicted that We Have All the Time in the World would play over the credits. Craig is clearly having great FUN in this one and has finally disproven the myth that he doesn't enjoy playing Bond. As many have said, the first hour and a half or so is absolutely classic Bond, great sequences, great performances, great dialogue, it all just motors along. It'll be a very polarising Bond in the fandom that's for sure, but there is plenty to enjoy here, for sure.īetter than QOS and Spectre, but paled in comparison to Skyfall and Casino - 6.5/7 out of 10. But I did come out both times utterly confused with what I'd just seen. I've seen it twice now, and I enjoyed it both times. I did feel there were far too many quips though, some were pretty funny but plenty fell flat and were really jarring. His murder of Logan was deliciously brutal. The plot was decent on paper, but lost its way a bit and for me was maybe too ambitious and didn't end up working at all.Ĭraig was a lot more vocal than he's ever been and I'm not too sure that that side, combined with the lighter more bombastic tone is really him. However, ending the film with All the time in the world was a weird shift in tone at that point. Nice throwbacks to OHMSS in the soundtrack so kudos to Zimmer for that. Like he's meant to be an assassin basically, why only show him assassinate a drunk woman? I wish he'd been a more constant, omni present threat. Saffin was pretty meh as a villain, he could've been so much more threatening and menacing, but he fell short. I'd hoped the inclusion of Blofeld would've helped redeem Waltz's portrayal, but I've left feeling that they had a terrific actor in that role and wasted him. Also, the line she says when killing the scientist (not going to attempt spelling his name) was DAD levels of shit. I did like hers a Bonds dynamic, but the introduction of her being 007 and her passing it back to him was a bit ham fisted and I'd much rather they just cut that little storyline out completely.
No time to die opening title sequence movie#
Paloma was absolutely fantastic and it's such a shame she was only in it for 15 minutes or so, because that Cuba segment was the highlight of the movie for me. Madeleine was a much better character and Lea Seydoux was really great. Top tier Bond and top tier Craig's Bond.įor me, it began to slip during the Blofeld interrogation, stagnated for a bit and dipped off massively once on the island.
