Default No Time To Die - Spoilers so beware

Ok watched the latest Bond movie in a Pattaya theatre today.
Awful print - dull and dingy colour , out of focus and booming distorted sound ( No doubt because we were seated on the back wall)
Opening scenes great , then unbelievably boring until the final scene -When James Bond is killed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was aware Daniel Craig wanted out , but to kill the character off was a surprise.
A black actress has been given the 007 label, but if the producers think she will be able to carry the franchise forward, will in my opinion, be in for a shock.
So all in all , very disappointing.

My neighbours raved about it, I didn't think too much about it. The film before was much better in my opinion

Started well with Casino Royale, down hill ever since IMO. I wouldn't say the last film was bad, but I left the cinema somewhat disappointed - I'd class it as the sort of film I'd watch if there was nothing else to do. As for killing him off - no idea how that works going forward. Let's hope The Matrix Resurrections and Top Gun are better, as a lot of the trailers we watched were uninspiring to say the least.

Bond has been dropping quality for years, MI is the spy film of choice now. No pandering to the woke society, but just ignoring those aspects, just a good olf fashioned ridiculous spy/action movie!

No doubt the next Bond will be a vegan, non binary, gender fluid person with no definable racial background, and won't kill anyone, they will just ask the baddie to desist from anti social behaviour.........
