Daniel Craig’s fifth and final outing as 007 tops the DVD releases for the week of Dec. 21.
“No Time to Die”: The 25th James Bond film, delayed multiple times by the pandemic, finds the beloved MI6 spy enjoying a short-lived retirement in Jamaica before being drawn back into the fold on a globe-trotting mission that features villainous turns from Christoph Waltz and Rami Malek.
“Director and co-writer Cary Joji Fukunaga has delivered the goods for Daniel Craig’s farewell tour: exciting locales, jaw-dropping stunts, a beguiling Bond girl, a ridiculous villain, and of course, some romance,” writes Tribune News Service critic Katie Walsh in her review. “Plus, there’s double the 007s, as Lashana Lynch’s Nomi takes on Bond’s retired number as MI6’s newest superstar.”
With a cast that also boasts Ralph Fiennes, Naomi Harris, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux and Ana de Armas, “Fukunaga gives Craig a stunning send-off as Bond, in this beautifully shot and epic adventure,” Walsh writes. “Despite the delays, ‘No Time to Die’ is worth the wait.”
