Bond chose death over social distancing
It’s a bold strategy, Cotton
Bond is a conservative, confirmed
James Bond is brilliant chap.
and he smiled as he did it, rofl
@@thomasarnoldcoe6527 Let’s see if it’ll pay off for him.
Let’s be clear. The biggest surprise is that Bond’s balls 🏀 🏀 still work after Casino Royale
That was the first thing I said
Balls of Steel. lol
🤣🤣🤣
He had a transplant, Superman was the donor
It takes about 3 financial quarters for a sitting president's policies to take affect. This means the current inflation has to be tr🍔mp's fault and not biden
There's a reason why Daniel Craig has grey hair in this film, he has no time to dye.
I'm nominating you for "pun of the year"
Dad???
Absolutely a better pun than the one from the film.
🤣🤣🤣 classic
wow...outstanding!!!!!!
When I was seeing his death Scene, I was like, "he isn't going to die *He doesn't have time for that* "
I took “no time to die” as “not a good time to die”…
@Unvaxxed Saniac That's a good point.He just had a ear ache.lol
Ahhh I see what you did there
He doesn't have time for that "😆😆😆
The original director quit because he hated where it was going
He knew where it was going? How? I didn't have a clue.
Best comment ☝
Ahhhh haaaaaa knew the director was loopey I had to watch it twice made no sense in the middle of it.
Danny Boyle ... An Intelligent man.
I would have quit too.
He quit over the idea of killing off Bond
“He’s with her for a couple of movies.” She died in the first movie, Ben.
but, she was always on his mind...
So anyway I started blasting
@@lewisraj 😂
@@BravoRox that vid on your channel is messed up 😂
@@lewisraj yeee😂🤭
The nine minute Cuba scene with Paloma was the best part of the whole movie.
100% agree with you. Ana De Armas is the best thing about this bond film. Disappointed with everything else
Yes that was amazing and she was likeable
Yep. Began and ended with her. I agree
Which makes me wonder why they advertised her on posters and in trailers like she was supposed to be a big part of the movie, but then they gave her like 20 minutes of screen time?? So dumb
Agreed. The ending was also amazingly powerful though. And Rami Malik, the villain, was a really good villain. Overall the entire movie was awesome
Safin was obsessed with Madeleine because he saved her life and claims that now he’s attached to her and she belongs to him in a way. Basically he was just fucked up
I have a (film) theory that explains a lot...(Spolers ahead) And this isn't ALL my theory, so don't shoot the messenger.. I think that 'Skyfall' (2012) is the last James Bond film.. Sky falling is another word for the End of the world... The intro scene sees James Bond falling to his death from a bridge after being shot by another agent.. Even the title sequence suggests Bond is dead with a tombstone and all.. And Adele sings "For this is the end ; I've drowned and dreamt this moment".. SO, the theory goes: EVERYTHING you see after this, is the final temptation of Bond, AND his final thoughts before death (we even see his tombstone as I said)... He sees his fears come true..MI6 being blown up.. Some guy suggesting Bond is homosexual.. and thus Bond is no womanizer.. Foreshadowing someone named 'Eve'. THEN.. the next James Bond movie is called 'Spectre (2015) which means 'a ghost'. (ALL happenstance as Ian Fleming would put it). So James is a ghost now, and in his last film 'No time to Die' (2021), he is faced with all kind of religious concepts before dying.. The villain is Lyutsifer Safin... well, that is Lucifer aka Satan.. we also have MAdeline (origin being Mary Magdalene). And why the name Paloma =dove( meaning the use of a dove as a symbol of peace originated with early Christians, who portrayed baptism accompanied by a dove)? I know, I know, laugh at me.. BUT...think about the broken mask suggesting the two-faced Judas. Think about the final scene and Bond dying(or not).. We have a Judas, we have a Mary.. THEN who is playing Jesus?. WELL, he is the guy who sacrificed himself for the need of the many. James Bond did die at the end..But don't worry, the end titles of the movie says 'James Bond will return'..
@@ZoolGatekeeper facisnating analysis that adds up and makes sense. I noticed there was foreshadowing in the opening gun-barrel of No Time to Die, as Bond fades to white, instead of us seeing the blood of his enemy on the screen. Because in this instance, the enemy had won.
I’m not sure how Ben missed this
@@ZoolGatekeeper shiiiitttt not bad
He looks like a crackhead give me a break. What a disgusting villain in very incompetent couldn’t stand him.
The main problem is Ana de Armas and Daniel Craig had more on screen chemistry in 15 minutes than Lea Seydoux had in 2 full films.
Ana de Armas character was very cute.
Lmao
Only issue is that is that she is a Mary Sue... got to that level with a few weeks of training
@@pradeep_sekar I think that label is overused. She has 15 minutes of screen time and her training was specifically for covert operations, not combat training. The plan went to shit right away so there’s no reason she couldn’t hold her own, Mary Sue implies she’s unrealistically good at everything and has no flaws, too premature to label her as such with her not even being a main character
She's good in every film she's in.
I just love how Ben calmly reassembled the plot like. "What if James Bond didn't know whether he can trust the woman or not? What if this movie was abt James Bond the Agent and James Bond the man who wants to finally build a normal life with someone he truly loves? And in the end, he ends up making the wrong decision of not trusting her but when he finds out he was wrong, it's too late coz now he has to fight the bad guy and he sacrifices himself to save the planet." This.
" And in the end, he ends up making the wrong decision of not trusting her but when he finds out he was wrong"
The idiot movie have a 5 year timejump... James Bond gets nothing done during those years similar to "Rise of Skywalker" where Luke Skywalker is supposed to have spent years "searching" for the dagger... These idiot writers dont even bother to make years move for the character. They just conclude "Years passed, nothing happened" then after awhile they exiled themselves somewhere to die from where the genius script gets them for a "final job" which off course is written to make them die to market a new character.... Absolute Ass!
Ben Shapiro calmly REASSEMBLES the plot with FACTS and LOGIC!!!
If that the case, and Looks like bond never learn from all his previous movie.. bond just never trust anyone include woman. Lol.
Historically Bond always allowed women in his life to die or get hurt at his expense. Think the message at the end was that he finally sacrificed himself for a women and child he loved.
BRUH SPOILER ALERT
@@luislam96 then why did you click on this video 🤣🤣🤓
Also this is the first Bond we’ve had since Lazenby actually fall in love (maybe they got married IDK) with the love interest. So yes it makes sense he’s be willing sacrifice himself rather than risk exposing Madeleine or their daughter to the nanobots, I think any husband/father would do that for his wife and daughter. But honestly would it have killed them to let this Bond get a happy ending, he’s the one who had the most tragedy and heartbreak.
@@hollandfray4521 more especially this Bond than any before. I don’t feel any before Daniel Craig’s Bond character has ever had this much depth.
@@hollandfray4521 you need to see on your Majesty Secret Service if you want to see a Bond in love. Its a top tier bond film and one it get the feels at the end.
Totally agree that Ana De Armas is the best thing about the film, she steals every movie she’s in
Knives Out!
😏
She was awful, her character was completely ridiculous.
They wasted Christoph Waltz, and now they wasted Rami Malek.
Sadly True
What about the fact that when Remi's character kills the girls mother, he is near tht age of her father. But then 20+ yeas later Seydoux is the same age as Remi.
i was also very confused about this, and almost no reviews bring it up
@@brunotheburrito I thought this too, but when I think back, we don't see his whole face at the beginning of the film. Safin's face/skin looks the way it does because either (1) he just has some kind of skin condition, or (2 more likely) he survived whatever was used to kill the rest of his family and it disfigured him. It's very possible that he's like 18 at the beginning. That puts him at only a few years older than Swann.
How do you know what his age is when killing her mother. He could be late teen and she early teen. We only see his lower damaged face.
Agreed on the villain. I had really high hopes for Rami Malek’s villain. Blofeld should’ve definitely had a way bigger part.
Yes I was disappointed when he died so quickly...
I dont get the hype with rami malek guy is overrated as hell shittiest villain just like the villain from QOS the best villain was Lachiffe in Casino Royale
@@K20civicsirturbo He's a brilliant actor ( Bohemian Rhapsody ) but at the end of the day it all depends on the script...His character should have had a lot more depth and be more "involved" in the story...But it wasn't his fault...
@@jeromewagschal9485 im not a tool i dont give a shit how many awards someone has won hes a corny villain and theres NOTHING threatening about him now compare him to the villain in Casino Royale now thats a good villain sorry I can form my own opinion and dont regurgitate the same talking points everyone else does
@@K20civicsirturbo Neither do I 😁
I thought he was a below-average villain at best...His character was something I had already seen a thousand times already, he was not credible, not scary and boring...
It's too bad Blofeld died so quickly...He was a real Bond villain... Especially played by Christopher Waltz...They should have kept him as the main villain...
And yes Le Chiffre was a great villain and totally mean and sadistic too...
The rant about unbelievably obedient 4-year olds is priceless.
Absolutely!
And 100% correct. Screenwriters in general don't get this about kids. I've seen unnatural lack of reaction from kids in movies to things like witnessing death of parents.
Good review. My pet peeve is when people point guns at the people but don’t shoot and then lose the advantage.
Or the put down the gun cliche.... I absolutely hate it when the villain has a hostage and good guy puts down his gun. Just lame and I don't know of anyone who would do that in real life.
You'd love Alec Baldwin lol
@@PsychKingler wow!!! Hell yeah 😎. Well said
@@PsychKingler Too soon
My husband and I were talking about this exact thing this morning. What's with all of the chatty chat chat? Just pull the trigger already. Also what's with the long fight scenes? If can get up to get a snack and go pee, and they are still sparring when I get back, the fighting scene is way too long.
daniel craig's suits were absolutely immaculate too.
daniel craig's super power is wearing a suit
when he puts on a tux entire galaxies have exploded
Sorry to say that they were far from being “immaculate”. You can see “collar gap” almost all the time. Unacceptable, considering these are, supposedly, bespoke suits from Tom Ford that cost a fortune. Also, beginning with Skyfall, Craig started wearing very tight-fitting suits, which don’t look elegant. Is this meant to make the character appear more powerful? I don’t know, maybe. But it’s not a good fit. His best suits are actually in Quantum of Solace.
Agreed. Craig looks sexy as hell, no homo at all. Loved them particularly through Skyfall and Spectre. Albeit, Casino Royale and Quantum had some more classier, boxier fits which looked quite nice as well.
@@countalma9800 100% right. I was appalled at the collar gap!
His suit in the opening scene of Spectre was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Blofeld should've been the final boss. Safin was cool but he should've been for another bond
I agree. Safin wasn’t good enough to be the villain to end Daniel Craig’s Bond.
I have always been a Bond fan, and it was so sad for me to see the franchise basically die with this movie. I agree about the plot and villain. Leading up to this Bond movie I have been re-watching some Bond movies I really liked and recently re-watched Tomorrow Never Dies. In the age of big-tech, and mass news media, that movie became one of my favorites due to the villain. He is the most realistic, and relevant to things happening today.
This franchise didn't die. They might make the next one or two with new female bond (she was ok in this one actually) then cast male bond for continuation or reboot. There will be more Bonds
It’s the end of Craig’s Bond, not Bond as a whole
Carter was the best villain.
@@michals5873 slight correction in that she's technically female 007 not female Bond, but I'm guessing that's what you meant lol. I thought she did her part fairly well too!
@@Archer.Bean. yes, that's what i meant
I love the fact the Ben is speaking in the same passionate voice about Bond as he does Biden.
No time to die.. An Incredible film I loved it it’s a masterpiece, Daniel Craig is the GOAT
I was half expecting him to start talking about the state of free speech in the Western hemisphere
@@NahualliUoxtitla lol exactly
Blofeld told Bond that when he figures out Madeleine's secret it would be the death of him, and the vulnerability of becoming a father truly killed James Bond. It made him human. The little girl was his kryptonite.
Blofeld was saying the secret would kill safin
@@eoghanlacey6384 Blofeld: "When her secret finds its way out, it'll be the death of you." He was speaking to Bond. [edit to add: Blofeld might've said "when our secret finds its way out..." If so, that could mean his (Blofeld's) and Madeleine's secret, because they are the only ones who know that she carried Bond's child.)
Ok, but why though? Like, what part of them having a daughter would’ve meant his death? I get that he stayed behind because he couldn’t touch her anymore (which I also kinda think is dumb), but at the time, his daughter was safe and sound in a secluded house and spectre was dead. Why exactly would blofeld know what was going to happen?
@@yonatanyonatano1192 Blofeld didn't know exactly what would happen, he just knew that James Bond's strength (his super power) was that he didn't give 2 f's about anyone or anything, except for Queen and Country, and that made him invulnerable... But he also knew that Bond could deeply love (Vesper) and that when Bond discovered he had a daughter he would love her 10x more than he loved Vesper, thus rendering him vulnerable.
@@yonatanyonatano1192 And as far as the not being able to touch his family ever again, if he ever touched anybody who touched anybody who touches... ad infinitum... It would eventually get back to them and kill them. So the screen writers gave him no other choice but to allow himself to get vaporized.
Rami Malek did the absolute best he could with such a horribly written character
@peter pan You're a troll. He was amazing as Freddie Mercury and is so good in Mr. Robot
guy is a bad actor imo idk why ppl back him so much
@peter pan He's a great actor. I can guess why you dislike him and it probably has nothing to do with his acting ability....
@peter pan he legit won an Oscar lmao
He has better things to do, really wasted his time here.
Blofeld should’ve been the real villian at the end.
M should have been.
"He's in love with this one woman and then he's with her for a couple of movies" She dies at the end of the first movie, man.
@oana gabriela Ben Shapiro watches movies at 1.5x speed, just like he talks, so he sometimes misses key plot points
I stopped the video at this point.
I mean he was definitely hung up on her in Quantum of Solace but yeah Skyfall had no romantic plot for Bond really besides that one girl who i forget her name lol
@@nickkruse1734 Maybe that was due to the *incredible* decision to pulverize his balls in C.R.
True, but Quantum of Solace is an epilogue of sorts to Casino Royale. And Bond makes peace with her death at the end when he tracks down her former lover and spares his life despite his betrayal of Vesper.
Vesper is still a major presence in that film even if she herself never appears in it.
Why can't Ben make a separate channel dedicated only for movie reviews. I'd watch every one of the videos.
His 3.7 millions subs wouldn't all migrate over, he'd potentially lose viewers.
I assume he only has time to watch movies he actually is interested in watching. If he would become a movie reviewer he wouldn't have time to do all the other things he does. Like running his company for example.
Fuck yeah
Well eventually, he will be in the movie industry.
He is more honest that Ebert. If Ebert gave a movie great reviews, I would wait for it to come out on TNT...and be glad I didn't waste time or money on it
I think the movie focused more on providing closure to the story arcs that Craig's Bond was involved in. Because of that, there was emphasis on Bond's character development - to ensure this, they did not want the villains to steal the show and instead provided a "line of angry little men." The new 007, intentionally inexperienced, again helps to place Craig front and center and re-establishes his importance. And I think they also wanted to test the waters about how ppl would react to women lead roles for their upcoming spinoffs.
It was a terrible ,terrible film. A franchise destroyed by woke writers with no knowledge or respect for their subject matter
What upcoming spin-offs! They're not doing spin-offs.
Bond 26 will be re-boot.
@@jlight1965 “wOkE iS bAd” wow, that’s such an original opinion that has never been said before
@@TastyMeat8675 Its been said a lot because it's true for most people.
Ben is right, to make Bond more dramatic, the villain must be terrifying.
Unfortunately we did not really know the intentions of Rami Melek's villain.
I love Ben's blunt honesty. Other reviews are too scared to be honest
Rami Malek is a fantastic actor but I feel his character was "rushed" and "unfinished" and not developed more...Too bad...
@@jeromewagschal9485 Yes I agree
We need a Playlist of all Ben's movie reviews
Schindlers List and Bond films
Really, we don't. Ben should stick to politics.
@@EPA18 Granted, Ben's movie reviews aren't quite as good as The Critical Drinker's, but I still like them.
Great review; I agree with nearly everything. However, I thought that Madeleine Swann’s father was the founder of Spectre, that Safin was obsessed by her because he killed her family like her father did his, and in sparing her they shared a fateful childhood trauma - she’s his mirror image. I may have misinterpreted the film, but I thought that his obsession made clear sense.
Yes! Came to say this. I think Ben overlooked this
That was what I thought as well!
You can’t expect a thoughtful review from someone who knows fuck all about James Bond and only watched this movie hoping to get a chance to bitch about “black 007”
@@ethanwilliamson782 And yet the new 007 sucks. Before it was Ana de Armas.
@@paulojoao4863 did you even watch the movie?!😂😂😂😂😂
For me the only issue is the villain. I liked the set up of him saving her at the start. They could have done so much with that. Maybe her having like stockholm syndrome like love for him. His motives were unclear to say the least. How did he even acquire the amount of power he has?
This is the best review ever of this movie. I felt exactly the same about the movie leaving movie theatre. It just didn't make sense, lots of things were left completely unexplained. Utterly confusing. Too bad to end the series on this note.
Don’t think it’s the end
@@pvp214
end of craig's bond - yes
end of story - no
as they said already in the movie - "007 is just a number"
@@LT_PL yupp
If you watch till the end of the credits, “Bond will be back”
@@bobgutman9691 No way??? Cause I stormed out after his death.
I’ve seen a dozen reviews for this film all from “professional” RUclips movie reviewers, all of whom are very entertaining, but this is the funniest and best review of them all.
Dude watch the drinker review 10 times better
@@sautortheratkiller9172 the critical drinker . Love him
@@sautortheratkiller9172 his shtick gets old fast, IMO. It's funny on occasion, but very predictable. Not trying to trash the guy, just my thoughts 🤷♂️
haha, I'm not sure it was that funny, although I do like the way ben describes things he believes to be nonsensical, and also the added SFX in the background lol.
Craig, best bond ever.
Didn’t like the killing of bond at all. I’m sorry but James Bond wouldn’t sacrifice himself just because he couldn’t touch his wife and child. Isn’t he curious to see how his child grows up? Bond has always made it through tougher situations than rami malek’s character puts him in
You are 100% correct. Bond is a cold man that deals with, and can handel the most tragic situations without batting an eye. He's always lost ppl who were close to him. I'm convinced a real bond doesn't fall in love and isn't stupid enough to have a kid in his profession.
@@joeydigrado382 Both of you don’t understand that there are levels to characters and their growth. Bond grew into a man that gave a shit. It’s beautiful and not as predictable as what you guys are saying.
The problem was the nano bots. He could never make contact with anyone ever again. The nano virus would eventually make it's way to his daughter. If he touched a homeless guy in San Francisco, it would eventually make it's way to his baby momma and daughter.
agreed you can’t just kill James Bond, how will you bring him back for the next movie? bad film anyway
@@NoName-kq9kl Who the heck would want to touch a homeless guy in San Fransisco...?
I feel like Ben didn’t really pay attention to the film and just wanted to complain. Firstly, Vespa, Bond’s girlfriend in Casino Royale died at the end. She wasn’t in the other films, Ben. Secondly, Rami Malek’s character, Sarfin, wants to destroy Spectre for their involvement in the death of his family. Sarfin is infatuated with Madeline (Bond’s new girlfriend) after saving her because he believes when you save a life that life is forever indebted to yours. Madeleine is also the daughter of one of the key members of Spectre (Blofed’s organisation). Hence why Blofed only wants to talk to Madeleine.
Also, I find it a bit rich that Ben likes Amas character despite the fact she is clearly a Mary Sue but dislikes the black woman for being “incompetent”.
It is strange that everyone who is agreeing with Ben, missed the points you made. You're right and the plot made perfect sense. Some people get confused by complex plots that are not in a straight line. They were clearly packing quite a bit into the movie to tie up loose ends before Craig finished as Bond.
I don't agree with Paloma being a Mary Sue. She's clearly more skilled than she's letting on and the movie doesn't really dive more into her character. She only had three weeks of training by the CIA but she may have had many years of training and experience with Cuban Intelligence. And in a series of spies and lies, we don't know if there is even more to her than what she says. I don't agree with Ben on Nomi being incompetent. Maybe, compared to Bond but we don't really get to see an origin story for Bond. I'm sure he would be rough around the edges if we got to see when he started out.
My biggest question was what happened in the flashback fight scene at the beginning, after the masked man (who turned out to be Malik's character whose name I could never remember), shot at the ice to save Madeleineafter his dramatic change of heart? Did they go back to the cabin together, so he could save her from dying of hypothermia and she could patch up his gunshot wounds and fix his broken back? The only thing I understand about that, is why they decided to skip right over it.
The villain's name was Lucifer Safin...
It's not the main story of the film. Presumably she went back to the house and he left. It's possible that he had a change of heart because Mr. White didn't kill him.
Of all the dozens of plot holes THIS is the one you question
Ben’s comments about the plot holes seems to resonate with me. I find that a lot of the modern films / tv shows these days don’t have good stories. Some seem to just care about box ticking and woke politics but others just ignore the story altogether. Perhaps I am just an old fart
It seems that they have certain things they feel the need to be part of the movie which gives it a cobbled together feel overall - need to keep it simpler. Craig was good as usual and will be a hard act to follow!
I get the sense that the modern film industry at least with big blockbuster type movies will write the story around a cast they have in mind rather than finding the right cast to bring a story to life. I think they really wanted to promote lashana Lynch and Rami Malek even though their characters felt really unnecessary
Modern tv and movies - no story line and everyone is gay or trans.
That’s because they start with an agenda and then fill in the holes from there. It’s convoluted from the beginning
i think most films, from all times, have had bad stories
we cherry pick the very best classic movies that we remember, and think that all movies back then were star wars and the godfather
but 90 percent of all movies have always sucked
kind of hard to figure out why tho, movies literally have teams of hundreds and often thousands of very talented people trying very hard to make them very good, and they often just aren't
kind of sad. i guess making a great movie is just much much harder than it seems
because there certainly aren't many of them
If Ian Fleming was alive today he would go back into spy mode and stop the movie from ever being made.
Missing the point with the villain - the big bad in this movie was Heracles, not Safin. Safin was just a vector - Bond died to kill Heracles.
Interesting point... Heracles had no motivation - it would kill literally EVERYONE unless it was programmed. That's why people who feel into the vat died instantly.
What does it mean? I dunno. 🤷🏾
@@THEAdmiralXizor i thought it was acid killing people in that part, not heracles
@@benguensche It did look like acid, but if you look closely, the nanobots were swarming the scientist when he fell in... the people in the hazmat suits were dealing with unprogrammed Heracles; apparently, it will kill everyone unless it is programmed with a specific target...
Heracles is a tool. How can a tool be the villain? Dumb dumb take.
Whoever edited this together, my bandana is off to you for the FOXDIE references.
That sound effect!
Gotta love Ben's movie reviews. He needs to do more of them!
Yes
Agreed
Honestly I’ll take his reviews over a lot of woke hacks and critics who are giving this a 10/10 for strong female characters and nothing else
@@lawrencetalbot8346 I As well always enjoy listening to Ben Shapiro review and critique movies
He seems to have a real love for movies
Great point
They should make one for Conservatives titled " NO TIME TO BE WOKE" 🤣
Hans Zimmer did a fantastic job with the the score!
True that was the only positive for me
The baddie did tell us exactly why he feels connected to Madeleine--he saved her life, and that act created a permanent connection, just like taking a life does. She is allowed to see Blofeld because Blofeld wishes it. Did you miss all that? I do agree that Mathilde would never have been so calm.
The discrete metal gear solid sound! If that was Ben or if it was a producer or whatever, absolute genius!
Knew I wasn't hearing things!
woaahhh, YEEAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
007 = James Bond, there's no swapping them out. When I originally heard they were thinking of replacing James Bond with someone else, I cashed out. I've been in love with the character since Sean Connery, Daniel Craig moved up to my 2nd favorite Bond. I feel like doing what they just did ruins his whole legacy.
Ben Shapiro destroys James Bond with facts and logic
I saw it and there were huge plot holes!🤣
@@julianwalls1077 me too , I almost fell asleep
Within the first 20 minutes of the film:
1. No one can jump off a bridge and hold on to a cable with their bare hands. After 10 feet of falling the cable would rip out of your hands and you would fall to your death.
2. Throughout the shootout on the bridge, the bad guys are randomly shooting in the direction of, not only bond, but the other bad guys as well.
3. All the staircases that bond rides up with a dirt bike are conveniently lined with ramp blocks. Also, no one is going to jump off a wall at that angle with that speed. You would just hit the wall.
4. A man walks up to Bonds car, shooting a weapon (I believe a $ho+gun) that clearly has a limited magazine. He fires close to 30 rounds without reloading. For a magazine that fits in his hand, it's hard to believe he could hold that many rounds.
5. Bad guys surrounding Bond's car and firing automatic weapons in the direction of each other. Once again, bad guys would be accidentally shooting each other. Apparently bullet penetration and ricochets don't exist in the Bond world.
Plot aside, the action sequences lacked realism. Even for a Bond film.
The fact that she’s 007 is terrible. I mean, Bond saved the world at least 20 times. And they didn’t even care to retire his number??? But adding her into the film did nothing. The only significance she had was to blow up the base if needed and to hold the Russian scientist hostage.
Plus, I never got the point of Luke Ash. Like, seriously, did they just add him in to get an extra 30 minutes?
Other than all that, I think the movie was ok. I’d give it 7.1/10.
Bond was married before, on her secret majesty’s service.
He was also fake married in you only live twice
Both are my favorite bond movies.
"We have all the time in the world...." I shivered every time he said it in no time to die
@@l.choitz6472 I think George Lazenby is truly an underrated Bond, and I overall really like how Bond was written in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Bond is a badass in that film, particularly in the action sequences where he doesn’t indulge in any nonsense; he fights quickly and efficiently. And I didn’t get bored with his near-perfect fights because the choreography favored the idea of Bond thinking quickly on his feet. I remember a fight in the film, for instance, where Bond recognized someone who was going to fight him and Bond ended the fight in about 5 seconds by throwing a chair at the enemy. That was also a nice callback to how often Connery’s Bond used chairs in many of his fights (my friend and I at the time ended up calling Connery-Bond’s martial art “Chair-Fu” simply because he used chairs in as many fights as possible),.
Anyway, yeah, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service and George Lazenby did many things right (I even love that the opening Bond song is instrumental).
@@Kekoapono Wish Lazenby would’ve decided to continue in the role and that Diamonds Are Forever would’ve served as a more direct follow up to OHMSS
Well done overlords. You've gotten Ben to speak against the nuclear family.
@n!kku Ben said it wouldn't be right if Bond settled down and became a responsible father because he'd be like Jack Ryan.
@n!kkuThe fellow who posted this comment has to be so dense & so dull to even say Shapiro spoke against the nuclear family that the dullness required to say such a thing means he's almost certainly to dense to know that "wdym" stands for "what do you mean." So, he doesn't know what he means because he probably thinks the sky is green.
@@4emcarthur dude. It was a joke. I know Ben is totally pro nuclear family! I was implying the MSM created a whole Bond film just to trick Ben into speaking out against the nuclear family. Literal much?
@n!kku stop whiteknighting for Ben, he said what he said. Basically a CRT activist now 👍👌
It’s a movie..... not a great one....as Ben points out.....but I don’t think it reflects on Ben and his idea of the nuclear family....but we all know that it was a joke, about a plot with overlords making Ben do something Ben doesn’t really want to do.... so yes ba haa haaaa haaaaw
Daniel Craig has said that he would retire from the role of James Bond if he felt he was too old to play the character. Craig has also said that it has become harder to be fit enough for the role and that there has been more use of doubles for action sequences.
If I recall, he also suffered a couple injuries to leg and joints in the past 2 films.
He looked so haggard and tired throughout the film. Connery was in his 60's when he played the Bondian John Manson and yet he appeared to be a lot tougher and far more charismatic than Craig in this film.
Ana de Armis was the best. They definitely need to bring her back !!!
How though?
With more stupid jokes ? No
@@yrooxrksvi7142 She was a bright spot in a film that's entire script and storyline made no sense.
@@j2174 While I didn't hate her, she was the physical manifestation of how all over the place the movie was. One moment she's all dizzy and awkward about her being a noob, next scene she's kicking ass and helping Bond.
His love interest in Casino Royale was only in that movie, not several. He was with a couple of Bond girls in between Vesper and this latest one.
But Bond keeps crying over that girl. I think Spectre was the only film where we are not told that he still misses her, so it's not just one film
even if she wasn't in any other movies, she's been the lynch pin of the entire Craig era
kind of strange when you think about it, but hey, you gotta mix things up when your franchise is half a century old i guess
I think Ben means that in Quantum Bond still mourns her as the "one true love™"
@@JeremyRight-zi4yp he doesn't really mourn her that much it's more the loyalty and untrustworthy trait that looms more
@@vanderful2397 that’s my main issue, vesper isn’t even mentioned in skyfall and hardly in spectre, and the whole story of quantum of solace was him getting over her. Then the first 10 minutes of no time to die just destroys all that, this film is just stupid in so many ways
The big plot twist in the next bond film will be that the new “black female” 007 is actually a man who is trans! Best. Storyline. EVER!
Lol so true,
This is the best comment on here😂. And I wouldn't doubt it with this fragile snowflake generation haha
Can't wait try see the alt right triggered by this when it happens 😂
Sadly you are probs correct because Hollywood is becoming a woke joke. I didn’t see this movie, but just hearing about Bond’s woke replacement has convinced me not to see this film and killed any interest for future bond movies
I just wish they'd hurry up and cast Richard Madden or Tom Hardy already. They're apparently the top picks but I can easily see them duping us and casting, I dunno, Ru Paul at the last minute or something.
I totally agree with you about this Bond movie especially about part where Safin kidnaps Madeline and her daughter. What was his plan for them? Kill the mom and raise the daughter for himself? I guess all she had to do was bite him to be set free....??? Great humorous review, by the way.
Naomi Harris who played as Money Penny would have been a great choice as a field agent but this replacement of Bond is BS.
James Bond OO7 in "The World is NOT Socially Distanced Enough."
That one is really funny.
Is it true that the next "James Bond" will be a transgender male-to-female Vietnamese-British octogenarian?
Disabled too, if you left out that virtual then you're a bigot 😂🤣
NO...she is a young black woman, with very short hair!
no. you're close tho
it'll be a transgender female to male, and she (he? they?) will only identify as an octogenarian.
They're obviously actually a 23 year old white girl who just graduated from Vassar.
Barbara Broccoli has said the character James Bond is a man, so I don't think they're going there. Unless they've changed their minds. Also Richard Madden is the current favorite to play the next 007.
Give that character a stutter and I'm in.
Separating 007 from James Bond is like separating The Rock from Dwayne Johnson. Doesn't work.
It is very rare that iagree with Ben Shapiro. Nevertheless the analysis from this video is in many ways spot on in my mind. The first scenes of the movie were absolutely 10/10 in its performance. The rest of the movie including the plot and main characters were thin.
Yeah he should stick to this rather than his bullshit social commentary, most of this actually makes sense
He wasn't able to become a responsible dad, which wouldn't fit with the character. And it is only assumed that he died because nobody could survive that ending, except... Bond, James Bond.
He did it! The MGS reference! Thank you Ben, nobody is talking about how the movie virus is just Foxdie
You can thank his editing crew. Lol I noticed that too. I couldn’t help but laugh!
I was looking for this comment.
Words that kill! I was listening passively but I ran to my phone when I heard it. I would love Ben to review video game plots and MGS tops that
That bit got me good.
bandanas off to the editor.
I'm a Shapiro fan, but don't always agree with his takes on movies, although I think he did pretty well with his analysis of No Time to Die. There were some good parts, but also a lot of weird parts too.
Everything Ben questioned can be answered by watching the film more closely and paying attention to the details of the conversation in the film. I did a detailed explanation on my post.
I love the Metal Gear alert sound effect when the movie literally stole Foxdie.
I was looking for this comment.
None of the Craig Bond movies made any since. Seriously, what was Bond stopping in any of these films? All of them were soap operas with a giant budget.
Exactly how I feel minus Casino Royale.
I'm with ya. I miss brosnan man goldeneye was the shit when I was younger I was obsessed.
Bro Craig is wayyyyyy better than Pierce
I truly feel with Lea's character, she was deemed the daughter of SPECTRE, but in reality she was the daughter of QUANTUM, her Father's splinter faction of SPECTRE. I think there's more than meets the eye with her, not just a secret daughter!
There is nothing that doesn't meet the eye. Whatever dribble you were shown on screen, that's what it is. Quit treating this like casablanca and start treating it like a transformer movie.
QUANTUM was under SPECTRE so what's the difference
@@josiahteng6906 because quantum didn't kill children

"I AM your character arc!"
Wow, I never expected to hear an OneyPlays reference in a Ben Shapiro video.
I'd pay decent money to have Chris O'Neil play a Bond villain.
When I first saw Jason Bourne I thought: James Bond is SO dead! And then Daniel Craig saved 007...only for the Bond producers to end up killing him!! THAT SUCKS!
It’s been 15 years, shut up
The real bond would have found a cure and released it at the end. Killing bond makes no sense.
this is a great movie... but it just didnt seem like a Bond movie to me. They should never have killed him tho. Bond never dies, its a theme.
I actually loved it. Everybody, mostly, acknowledges Skyfall as a classic but it has a bizarre and hole filled plot as well. I would much prefer this ending to another Vesper/Tracy heartbreak scene. And despite the hype in the trailers, Madeleine didn't have a dark secret and she truly loved Bond. I'd rather have had them redo a Spectre type ending where they go off together but failing that, this one is good.
No Craig's 007 is a classic. He isnt a James Bond.
Why do you watch movies? The story didn't make sense, so it can't be the story you liked. What did you like?
casino royale is the classic. skyfall is good but not quite there.
@@unwokeneuropean3590 casino royale is a perfect film. cant defend the others. Skyfall is good, but overrated. no time to die has a bad plot but good emotional beats and dialogue.
@@MrAkaacer have you never watched a James bond movie?
Wasn't it said that Blofeld would only speak to Seydoux's character hence her working for MI6 ? And looking back I agree with another comment here that there was more on screen chemistry between Craig and De Armas in that segment than with Seydoux in a movie and a half.
Yes, but WHY will he only speak to her?

Re: the Bond movie. I checked out from reality for 2 hours and 40 minutes. Mission accomplished.
Visually spectacular as always.
Exactly! What is Mr Shapiro rambling about!
That's all you can ask for from a bond film.
@@matthewbalsinger3238 some of them are true masterpieces like casino royale, from russia with love, on her majesty secret service, and the living daylights.
The film stunk on ice. The action choreography was something out of a video game, almost every interior shot was in a garish murk, and James Bond was a tired, broken alcoholic.
@@ricardocantoral7672 it was like a video game because there was less editing, more longer takes. That's a good thing.
I feel exactly the way you do about this movie. Malek was wasted, an undeveloped villain, while Waltz was killed off when he IS the developed villain. He should have escaped and tortured Craig and family. BTW, it is worse than Spectre, but much better than the dreadful Quantum of Solace. Other than that, I think Craig is the best Bond at combining action with humanity, that the first movie was the best JB movie of this series and, frankly, all of them.
Actually Safin was a developed villain. He occupies more film footage than Bloefeld in this film: in the beginning, the killing of Bloefeld, and the end. It's true the character was revealed much more in the last 1/3 of the film. Perhaps more should be revealed in the middle of the film.
I disagree with Ben's premise that Bloefeld should be the main villain. Why should he? This last installment of Craig's Bond needs not to make Bloefeld the center of attention. I thought the development of Safin associated with his revenge using Heracles is a great storyline to reveal him as a greater villain than Bloefeld. Bloefeld seeks to control the world with information flow. Safin seeks to control the world with biological weapons.
Yeah he's good actor they shouldnt of replaced bond with a black lady either that was lame
Actually Bond dropped out of radar of MI6 after departed from Swann. He even cut off from Swann completely. M said it himself everyone thought he's dead. Naturally they won't be in contact with Bond. MI6 allowed Swann to talk to Bloefeld because he would only talk to her. It's not an intentional arrangement on their part.
The reason Safin comes back for Swann is because he wanted to kill Bloefeld. The reason he's also going after Swann and Bond after Bloefeld is killed is because he knows they're coming for him. In fact, the whole MI6 is coming for him because of Heracles. Safin kidnapped both Swann and her daughter as a leverage against Bond and MI6. Safin did offer to free Bond and his daughter, but planned to keep Swann presumably as an insurance policy. Ben really needs to CONNECT THE WHOLE STORY to make sense of everything.
Swann was the obsession of Bloefeld because he was using her to break Bond. Swann was also the obsession of Safin because she was the leverage against Bond and MI6. Safin let the kid go also presumably because he didn't know Swann has already escaped from the tea room where she was held and he needed to attend to the buyers of Heracles.
Final verdict? This is one of the top Craig's Bond film. Letting the kid go can be a blooper. Again, not everything in life makes perfect sense and neither should the films. But many of Ben's questions can be answered by watching the film more closely and connecting the dots.
Holy shit. Whoever put the Metal Gear riff in when he talk about the virus that targets specific genetics is great. They literally lifted that fron Metal Gear Solid 1 and 4s FoxDie virus.
Good to know there are some Kojima fans on Ben's staff
In the same vein, Metal Gear games are lifted heavily influenced by Bond films, MGS 3 for example.
I read this comment right when it happened!
For sure! When they described the virus in the movie, my brother and I looked at each other and said, “Fox die.”
Wondering what Ben has to say about the new upcoming Oscar Isaac Metal Gear movie.
they played us like a damn fiddle!
I love his admiration of Craig’s Bond because I concur.

The plot may be muddled because they were rumored to have done MASSIVE re-writes and reshoots after test audiences walked out because they may made Bond the joke of every scene (being "a misogynist dinosaur, a relic of the Cold War"). Apparently, they wanted this to be the James Bond movie for the MeToo era but realized no one was going to watch that, so they walked a lot of it back. even so, the story is a mess.
So... This one was going to be an actual woke mess? Oh well, given that fact this is only an entertaining mess this movie ups from a 6/10 to a 7/10
Test audiences walking out sounds like rubbish.
The actual source of test audience walking out is rubbish and about reshoot, they could have changed virus to nanobots.
I think it has become clear that Barbara Broccoli has proven to be incompetent at carrying on the Bond franchise as one of its producers. On the other hand, Christopher McQuarrie has demonstrated how proficient he is as a producer for the recent Mission Impossible films. He even said in an interview how much he loved watching James Bond movies, but argued at how "tough" it would be to tackle or meet audience expectations, to which I say "ARE YOU KIDDING?!" As a James Bond fan, I understand if lots of people say it could be over, but if there was a producer who could potentially save the franchise, then there would be no better candidate than Christopher McQuarrie, or someone of his caliber.
I realize we've never seen Bond die in a movie before, and that has a novelty to it, but I don't see why they couldn't have sent him off raising a family. That's something we haven't seen either. I'm not even a person that usually cares about the "agenda" but it's hard not to see it when they kill James Bond by literally turning him into a "toxic male." That felt mean spirited to me and it just ruined the movie for me, the good stuff in it too.
Socialist/WOKE::: It's about ERADICATING men and not allowing real men to multiply. Does not matter. As long as I owned my wallet, it doesn't go across the counters to buy Woke products.
It wasnt a real bond. He has been watered down. The bond from the books and the movies before the craig era. Was a womaniser, a masculine hero, calm under pressure, shaken but not stirred and after he saved the word. The end of the movies were Bond having his wicked way with a beautiful woman coz he had time to spare
Bond was written by ian Fleming his dreams and imaginations what he wanted to be. And Bond was the character he wrote. A flawed guy, liked his women, liked his booze, but he got the job done
@@grantmalone Lol not an unfair assessment
@@searchingforufos3102 I wasn't against them changing Bond or updating him with the times. This wouldn't even be the first time that's happened. Like, for example how when the Aids crisis happened in the 80s Bond went from having multiple partners to 1 or 2 per movie
Craig's Bond is probably my favorite. I didn't like that he died, and I didn't like how he died. And the things the director said, and the behind the scenes stuff with the script didn't make me feel better about it.
I'd really love to see a period piece Bond film, in like the 60's but made with today's technology.
Yes: Assassin dad is named as Mr. White. He was a big fish in Blofeld's organization.
He actually points Bond to his daughter for protection in a final deal. Resulting in her using Bond's child.
"I'm a lawyer, I'm Jewish, and my wife is a doctor. Okay? I know James Bond."
-Ben Shapiro, probably
There is one problem with the review..at the end of the credits there is one printed sentence (which ends every Bond movie) "James Bond will return...", not "007 will return". I just hope the next movie doesnt start with:
"Bond, I thought you died! How did you ever escape?"
"Well Money Penny, it wasnt easy"
For what it's worth, they do say Blofeld was only willing to talk with Lea Seydoux's character, which is exactly what Blofeld do to annoy Bond. So, MIS went along with it and didn't tell Bond because he was retired and they had not reason to annoy him. At least that aspect can be explained easily.
So, Blofeld pulled a Raymond Reddington.
Ben reminds me of myself talking about every STAR WARS movie except for the original trilogy.
Only the original trilogy counts, everything else is just entertainment. (and sometimes not even that)
@@jimd385 Very true
ive seen all of them, but will always say rouge one was the best. by far. that was an incredible movie

@@bradhaines3142 …..Rogue One is a great film (despite the ending being reshot by a different director #releasetheEdwardscut) and is certainly my favourite film of the Disney era of Star Wars…..SOLO is also excellent and I would love to see the Lord/Miller cut which I understand is a funnier more “Guardians of the Galaxy”style than the rather more serious Ron Howard version that we got.
The JJ Abrams Star Wars trilogy is trash, an incoherent mess with weak characters and boring stories, but there is good stuff in there, Adam Driver is great in all 3 films, and they do look amazing…….but they are awful movies.
The Mandalorian really is the closest to the feel of the original trilogy (more ‘Return of the Jedi’ than ‘A New Hope’) but even that has filler episodes.
I look forward to any new Star Wars movies or tv shows, but they can never recapture what made that first trilogy so special, as I said before.
@@jimd385
Prequals and orginals count, when Prequals story is a lot better, than Sequals story, while Lucas needed some help from other directors to direct the movie and he did not get that help, so directing did not go as well, while his story was a lot better, than sequals story.
They lost me when they used the jaws of life to enter the gay Q thing. They actually changed the characters mannerisms to look more gay. I was like.. wtf. Why.
Weird decision
Should have had blofeld masterminding everything in the entire series with the villains being "spectre number 2" or 3 and stuff. Keep casino Royale bt introduce him in the second movie (instead of quantum), rami Malek not a bad actor so maybe a fellow antagonist this movie but blofeld has always been the big baddie in Bond tradition
They didn't have the rights to SPECTRE or Blofeld back until they made Spectre
I like Ben's plot idea.

Safin needed Madelaine to get to Blofeld in the prison. He needed her again and her daughter to use as leverage against Bond; to get him to back off on the island and as a fail safe (the vial) when his plans are about to be "blown up". What I want to know is: how did Blofeld in prison keep tabs on Bond and then not know his scientist was turned? And why was Safin mad at the world? He got his revenge on Spectre, what the hell did we do to him?
That makes sense, blofield is a nonfactor to the plot if Safin couldn't communicate with him. Also why they made the big deal of the plant that forces people to cooperate, to force Madelaine to do what he wants.
The producer stated how the villain Safin is suppose to be "the one that really gets under Bond's skin. He's a nasty piece of work."
Honestly, I think the audience were feeling that more about him than Bond as well as this whole movie in general.
Although I love Daniel Craig as James Bond, I feel like this movie was weak

Actually it's more than just Bond not being able to touch Madeleine or her daughter - the virus transmits to _everyone_ through contact, so everyone who Bond touched and everyone _they_ touched would all be carriers so it would just be a matter of time before the chain of contacts reached Madeleine and her daughter. So basically, as soon as Bond was infected it was a death sentence for Madeline and her daughter. But yeah, the whole motivation for that arcane plot from the villain was a mystery.
Like how bond has several STDs that don't affect him, but he passes to all the girls hes with. He didn't have a problem with that throughout all the movies.
@@insanepenguin4617 shut up muppet
Blofeld is THE James Bond villain and he should have been the big baddie in this one too. As soon as his scene ended, I knew this movie would only go downhill. That’s coming from a diehard fan who watches a movie almost every night and has read every Fleming book
Phoebe Waller-Bridge was brought on to rewrite this movie.
She helped Kathleen Kennedy destroy the Star Wars franchise by playing a socially-conscious android in Solo, the first Star Wars to LOSE money.
She's also helping to destroy Indiana Jones as we speak as stories leak out that an ancient, dying Indy puts his Fedora on her head (but Disney has shut it down for a year, probably because Bond is under performing).
They're killing all of the icons.
Of course they are. Can’t be woke in a world where the heroes are via heteronormative tough guys
I'm definitely skipping the new Indy 5 film. I don't think I can stand to see how she's massacred my boy 😣
Should've had her on my radar since "Solo" (2018). Ty for the hint.
