No Time to Die

SnarkAI Score: 30/100

tldr:

The lack of coherence in the script and the silly opening scene would make it difficult for viewers to take the movie seriously. The age difference between Bond and his girlfriend is also a point of concern, and the fact that the protagonist shows no emotional attachment to his partner further detracts from the film's overall appeal. The attempted combination of gritty dialogue and lighting with over-the-top action sequences also undermines the movie's effectiveness. The brief appearance of Hugh Dennis is a positive aspect, but overall, this film fails to meet the criteria of a well-made and entertaining movie.

I'm worried this film was scripted by an AI after it read all the other Bond scripts.

Assuming the lack of blood everywhere is an attempt to keep a low rating, but combined with the Japanese opera masks does make the whole opening scene deeply silly. Turns out Bonds retired to an island or a village or whatever again, but oh no, he has to come out of retirement, but then he is back in retirement on a different island soon after. Saying that I'd watch a Bond film that was him retiring over and over again to progressively more remote locations and being found by increasingly more dishevelled agents trying to get him to come back.

Bond's girlfriend in this is 36, and he's 54. There's a whole legal adult of age between them. Gross.

The second things start going off the rails, James decides he's got absolutely no interest in his partner/girlfriend/lover and just shows her less emotion than you would a stranger. He should probably talk to a therapist about that speed of disassociation. it's not healthy.

Gone are the days of 'this is a realistic gritty James Bond' and we're back to smoke bombs and guns behind headlights. Despite this, the dialogue and lighting keep trying to say gritty. But it's hard to be seriously talking about nanobots with a guy dressed like Phantom of the Opera.

Nice to see Hugh Dennis getting some work though, though briefly.

This film should have ended with M on convicted of war crimes and executed. Creating a biological weapon that can target family lines, race or individuals that's also a Von Neumann machine is worse than anything any of the actual villains has ever done, and doing it off the books...
