Movie Review: NO TIME TO DIE

NO TIME TO DIE Director: Cary Joji FukunagaStarring: Daniel Craig, Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch, Jeffrey Wright, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, Rory Kinnear, Ralph Fiennes, Ana de Armas, Billy Magnussen, Christoph Waltz One of the most exciting eras of the James Bond franchise has come to an end as Daniel Craig finishes his run as Agent 007 in No Time to Die. James had been hoping to live off the grid leading a quiet life with the love of his life, Madeline (Seydoux) That can only last so long after his location is compromised, and old pal Felix Leiter (Wright) tracks him down with a newRead More →

First Listen: “NO TIME TO DIE” by Billie Eilish

“NO TIME TO DIE” by Billie Eilish Billie Eilish may just be the biggest name in music right now following her massive wins at the Grammys taking home five awards including Best New Artist and Album of the Year. She can now add herself to the elite list of artists including Paul McCartney, Shirley Bassey, Adele, and Sam Smith to pen the theme song for a James Bond film. I’ve listened to it a few times, and it is certainly growing on me. Eilish has that smokey sound to her voice. The stakes feel real with a nice orchestral build that we often find inRead More →

James Bond. Agent 007 is back in theaters for a thrilling new mission. No Time to Die is the 25th Bond movie, and Daniel Craig is back again as Bond and looks more pissed off than ever before.

Movie Review: KNIVES OUT

KNIVES OUT Writer/Director: Rian JohnsonStarring: Christopher Plummer, Jamie Lee Curtis, Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Don Johnson, Toni Collette, Ana de Armas, Michael Shannon, LaKeith Stanfield Christopher Plummer heads the cast as patriarch Harlan Thrombey who is described one of the best selling mystery writers of all time. He’s massively rich living a gorgeous palatial estate. His large family gathers to celebrate his 85th birthday, but the next morning Harlan is found dead in his study. Daniel Craig’s Detective Benoit Blanc is suspicious and believes this was a murder. But who did it? Someone in his family, his caregiver, or what was it suicide? Here’s myRead More →

Movie Trailer: KNIVES OUT

KNIVES OUT Director: Rian JohnsonStarring: Christopher Plummer, Daniel Craig, Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans, Michael Shannon, Toni Collette, Katherine Langford, LaKeith Stanfield Rian Johnson may have received some uncalled for criticism for a little film called The Last Jedi, but I’d ignore those fanboys. I personally think he took the Star Wars franchise in an exciting new direction. His next film takes us back to the days of Agatha Christie, Clue, and Murder by Death with a good ol’ fashion murder mystery. If you ignore the lackluster Murder on the Orient Express remake, we haven’t had a good murder mystery in quite some time. It’sRead More →

Movie Review: LOGAN LUCKY

LOGAN LUCKY Director: Steven Soderbergh Starring: Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Daniel Craig, Katie Holmes, Farrah Mackenzie, Riley Keough, Seth MacFarlane, Brian Gleeson, Jack Quaid, Hilary Swank Cinephiles and movie critics alike were disappointed when Steven Soderbergh, the Oscar winning director of Traffic, Erin Brockovich, and the Ocean’s 11 trilogy, had announced his retirement a few years back. Thankfully that was a short-lived decision as he is back to his usual shenanigans with Logan Lucky, which reteams him with two of his Magic Mike actors Channing Tatum and Riley Keough. Tatum stars as Jimmy Logan who finds himself fired from his job working in a mineRead More →

Movie Review: SPECTRE

SPECTRE Director: Sam Mendes Starring: Daniel Craig, Christoph Waltz, Léa Seydoux, Dave Bautista, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, Ralph Fiennes, Rory Kinnear, Andrew Scott, Monica Bellucci, Alessandro Cremona Daniel Craig is back for his fourth outing as James Bond, Agent 007. Back at MI6, the 00 program is at risk of being shut down after a new global surveillance initiative is being launched by the ruthless Max Denbigh, aka C (Scott). Bond causes a massive scene of destruction in Mexico City without being given the proper authority, which only fuels the move to terminate the 00 program. The current M (Fiennes) removes him from official 00Read More →

MY DEFINITIVE RANKING OF THE JAMES BOND FILMS

You may remember that before the release of 2012’s Skyfall I watched the entire James Bond franchise and wrote about them for “The Bond, James Bond Challenge”. Here is my definitive ranking of Bond’s missions as written back in 2012 after seeing Skyfall. As I look back at this list after having re-watched the franchise again recently, I will admit that some of these ratings are still too high, especially for those at the bottom of the list. 1. Skyfall (2012) Daniel Craig 5 out of 5 TICKET STUBS  It may feel like a cliché to have that at the top of my list, but itRead More →

He follows in the footsteps of Paul McCartney, Shirley Bassey, and Adele who all lent their vocals to a James Bond theme song. Adele even won the Oscar and Grammy for the theme to the last Bond film, Skyfall. Smith brings out his high falsettoRead More →

Movie Trailer: SPECTRE

SPECTRE Director: Sam Mendes Starring: Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Ben Wihshaw, Christoph Waltz, Léa Seydoux, Dave Bautista, Monica Bellucci Every time I hear that iconic James Bond theme, I get those little goosebumps of excitement. Daniel Craig is back to play the iconic Ian Fleming character under the direction of Skyfall director Sam Mendes. I absolutely loved the last James Bond film and am really looking forward to see what direction they take the series. Skyfall saw the return of Q now played by Ben Whishaw and Ralph Fiennes was appointed the new M at the end of that film. I blogged myRead More →
