    Perfect Set Up for 'No Time To Die'

    It's incredibly satisfying to reflect the longest running Bond, after all this time, and to see his first screen test and his very last day on set for the upcoming 'No Time To Die'. As a Bond fan this is a true treat and I hope it even comes as a feature in home video releases. What a legacy, Mr. Craig: you can walk away confidently happy now.

    I enjoyed it. 45 mins felt rushed, wish they had more.

    The media is generally quick to write people off, to say that XYZ would fail without consideration for the person on the receiving end, even if it's James Bond himself, LOL. Something that all of us can certainly work on.

    This is a 45 min doc about Daniel Craig's journey from being picked to play Bond to wrapping up the latest movie, No Time To Die. I enjoyed watching this, wish they had more.

    I had no idea that this dude received so much hate and backlash, especially from the English media. Daniel talks about all of that, how this changed, and how he dealt with being a nobody to being Bond overnight, some of the processes that went into making these movies, never-before-seen clips, etc.

    Regardless of if he's your Bond guy or not, I would recommend that you check it out. I feel like we tend to appreciate a movie better when there's some behind the scenes insight on the hard work that went into the movie and this will certainly help you look at his Bond movies differently and gear you up for the next one. I'll surely be going a rerun of everything from Casino to Spectre before No Time To Die.

    Nice documentary to mark Craig's Bond

    I remember the outcry when Craig was first announced as Bond. But he proved everyone wrong with his great portrayal. Nice to see some behind the scenes footage of some of his experiences, the stunts and recounting his movies. I really liked his comment about him being related and close to films like Dr No and Live and Let Die. Craig has joined a small elite group of actors who have carried such a great mantle of a timeless character. I am grateful to Craig for helping propel the franchise to the very top in the 21st century and hit some home runs for Bond fans.

    Worst James Bond in the midst of ultraviolet theme love by those that enjoy it

    I don't understand why in the hell people love this guy so much, this ultraviolence horrific mutilation of humanity is not what James bond was about neither in the past movies nor the series of books that were written by Fleming. It's just a love affair with mutilation of humanity of a human being. I can't stand watching any of his movies and for years I've only watched one of all of them and he made the other ones I had no interest in if I wanna watch this type of ultra violence stuff I watch Japanese typical yakuza movies not this garbage. I was a fan from the very beginning of the Fleming series of James Bond. But when this guy became the bond and I said hell and then I realize the ultraviolence these days. I'm so happy this guy is gone in a new James Bond is in the coming but for this era of James Bond rest in peace forever and you may you never show up again.

    This was unexpectedly good

    I really enjoyed watching this documentary, loved the narrative. Nice tribute to the whole James Bond, and yes Daniel did a good job portraying JB especially in the last 3 movies.
