'No Time to Die' marks the end of Daniel Craig's service with a slightly bloated Bond film
CNN
Daniel Craig's service in the Bond franchise comes to its conclusion in "No Time to Die," a big epic, which, despite its flaws, should buy the movie considerable goodwill from an audience that has waited (and waited) for it.
One of the original theatrical casualties of the pandemic, MGM delayed the release of Craig's fifth and final outing for 18 months, putting 15 years between his debut in "Casino Royale" and this chapter. While he hasn't lost a step, his editions of Bond have never quite equaled that dazzling introduction, and "No Time to Die" is no exception.
To its credit, this two hour, 43-minute movie (thus making the title a bit of a lie) assiduously builds on everything that the recent Bond movies have established, in a way earlier incarnations generally didn't. That has deepened the character, allowing Bond to experience grief, loss and love without hitting the reset button, the recurrence of the villainous Blofeld notwithstanding.
