007: No Time to Die; Hit or Miss?

• Bookmarks: 361363


After months of continuous delay, the 25th James Bond film, “No Time to Die,” was finally released in cinemas across the globe. The film is filled with an epic 163 minutes of action and follows the story of Agent 007 on one of his toughest missions.

It is common knowledge to the public that this is Daniel Craig’s last film as James Bond, which helps, “No Time to Die” provide a sense of finality for this chapter of the character, and maybe even a little peek into the future of a new spy. Daniel Craig has had a roller coaster ride of a career in his time playing James Bond. His two previous films, “Casino Royale” and “Skyfall”, are seen by many to be the absolute best of Bond on screen in almost six decades.

Some fans see No Time to Die as a sort of tiebreaker that dictates Daniel Craig’s success playing Bond; and for the most part, fans are quite pleased with how the film turned out. Adam P., a freshman at AISG, had this to say about the film, “I had just watched the movie with my family, and I really enjoyed it. Me and my dad are big fans of James Bond, so it was really nice to be able to watch this movie and bond over it together.”

If there is anything unfavorable about No Time to Die, it’s the fact that fans are going to miss Daniel Craig playing James Bond. Luca W., a freshman at AISG, said, “Honestly, it didn’t really hit me that this was Daniel Craig’s last movie until like, three days after I watched the film. He’s by far my favorite Bond, and I think things will just never be the same.”

Even if not every single installment of Craig’s movies as Bond, it is mutually agreed upon that he as an individual was always excellent in the role.
