This is a great montage scene of James Bond’s (Daniel Craig) life away from MI6 in Skyfall (2012). It seems fun at first, if not eventful, but we quickly get the feeling that Bond’s escapades ring hollow. I particularly like how there is zero dialogue in the montage, no matter the situation. A tryst with a girl, a lively drinking game (with a weird-looking obviously CGI-ed scorpion on his hand, no less…it couldn’t have been something else? also shout out to Michael G. Wilson’s son Gregg making a cameo) or “the next day” – Bond is alone with his thoughts, and he obviously hates it.

Here are the dorkiest moments of each Bond actor’s career:
Sean Connery tries to pull of the pink tie in Diamonds Are Forever (1971)…and fails. DORK!
George Lazenby’s Scottish get-up in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) screamed “dork.”
Roger Moore’s clown costume in Octopussy (1983) takes the cake…the ultimate dorkiest Bond moment!
Timothy Dalton’s “look” prior to fishing Franz Sanchez out of the sky in Licence To Kill (1989).
Sorry James, but not even Pierce Brosnan in The World Is Not Enough (1999) can pull off purple glasses (even x-ray ones).
Daniel Craig needed a shave and a shower as a hungover mess in Skyfall (2012)
Gareth Mallory (played by Ralph Fiennes) stands awkwardly after M leaves his office in Skyfall (2012)
To start things off, I called it two years ago: No Time To Die is going to suck
Fair warning – this review is full of spoilers and is interspersed with GIFs from previous Bond movies to convey my emotions and opinions.
Like most Bond fans, I was very excited to see No Time To Die. The two-plus year delay somewhat added to the hype but also annoyed me at the same time which was an odd feeling that I’ve never experienced for a new James Bond movie. Regardless, I saw it at the earliest possible showing.
