No Time to Die

I enjoy a good James Bond, and Daniel Craig has been quite good in the action/adventure sense. I was again reflecting on how different the Bond franchise is this decade than it was in the 80's and 90's. Definitely a reflection on the gritty nature of action films that is du jour. In this installment, Bond had tried to retire but Spectre is back and he is pulled into action again. Lot's more individual action and killing (more of a John Wick feel, than MI-6 dashing spy-craft). Largely this feels like a long farewell tour for Craig, while still trying to be moody and gritty. 

3 stars (out of 5)
