I just watched No Time to Die, and honestly it was great.

Before i begin, you should know that i love the james bond movies. I hold them to a specific standard and always have. I've always considered a bond piece should be a film rather than a movie, if you get my meaning. I'm happy to say that No Time to Die satisfied my criteria and was worthy to represent the finale to the Craig saga.

It made me laugh, and it made me cry. It was surprising and suspenseful. The ending specifically was impressive and i'm reeling by how shocking it was. It felt incredibly poetic. It was epic and full of emotions. It was exciting, and action filled. The pacing was good with perfectly spaced breaks. I was so attached and invested. They did a very good job catching the viewer up to speed, and made it act simultaneously like a standalone and the culmination to a series

to conclude i'm very happy with this. The villain was powerful, notorious and evil. The actors were great. The casting was done very well and the elegance of the series was upheld. Watchmojo summarizes it with "it honours the classic era while still maintaining the gritty realism of the modern series." i completely agree with that. It's ability to draw me in as a standalone film as well as the ultimate of a series was meant i could watch with my whole family was able to enjoy it as I did. I think it may be one of my favourite bond films, and also one of my favorites films of all time. It was strongly poetic and every second was enjoyable. I'm satisfied. 9/10.

Absolutely spectacular movie. Wonderfully done. Cheesy moments were satisfying but not too cheesy. Incredible filming, directing, cinematic sand plot. Phenomenal acting. Amazing setting. Superb

It is an amazing premise. There is wonderful character development. The acting is great. The casting is well done. The plot is very good and there is a lot of twists and turns. A lot of scary moments and unexpected jumps. The scary element and sci fi resurrection element was really well done. At one point it turned into a "journey 2 the mysterious island" quest time thing which I really liked. There's only one thing... the writing choices and lines are a bit weird. There was some confusion which had me scratching my head at times to understand why the plot went certain directions. The whole Lucy Hale sex plot was out of place. Some of the bad guys seems strange and cheesy, and the final ending (which I am not gonna spoil) had me quite confused. Good ending don't worry... but It was weird. Regardless, the laugh out loud comedy and the horror moments had me on the edge of my seat. I was emotionally invested and crying at the sad bits. It's a very good movie, but some of the writing choices were a little weird so I can see how it got bad reviews. Personally I enjoyed it and if you can stomach some gore and gross parts, it's a great comedy/thriller/action adventure/i don't know what genre (lol).
