A Bond for the 21st Century
9 October 2021
I've been watching the Bond Films since the late 60's/early 70's. For those that say Daniel Craig was not a brilliant Bond, you are expecting a genre and a character to be the same as it was at inception. The world has evolved, why shouldn't James Bond? The acting and physicality of James Bond as played by Daniel Craig is, IMO, the best it's ever been. He's more serious than the 007's of the past, but shouldn't he be? Back in the 60's & 70's, the action scenes, the way women were portrayed and the physical demands of the role were different. To expect no evolution of this character does a disservice to it.

If you prefer the old Bond, you have 20 other movies to chose from. I appreciate all of the actors that played the character and put their own mark on him. The series will always have a special place in my heart.

No Time to Die was one of the best Bond films ever. Let's give Daniel Craig the recognition he deserves for transforming this character from the inside out and for bringing it into the 21st century.
