What a condolence It is the shortest and most paced Bond film to date, running at a brisk 107 minutes compared to the franchise’s usual approximate two-hour running time. The opening car chase is a prime example of the film going leaner and more aggressive than its counterparts, keeping its focus taut and kinetic.

10. For Your Eyes Only (1981)

After launching into outer space Moonraker1981 Just for your eyes It was largely a way to bring Bond and the wider franchise back down to earth, with more danger and spectacle. Before sending 007 on his final mission, the opening resolves one of the biggest problems in the series in the final confrontation between Bond and his arch-enemy Blofeld. Although Blofeld’s identity was never explicitly established on screen due to legal issues surrounding the character, the character’s hallmarks were present before Bond sent the villain to his doom in the factory chimney.

Callbacks to the franchise’s history, in particular On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, are a welcome nod, letting the audience know that this will be a more serious adventure than most of Moore’s Bond appearances. Although the action doesn’t live up to the high standard set by the introductions of Moore’s previous two Bond films, the extended helicopter action keeps viewers spellbound and never overstays its welcome. Despite all its attempts to move forward in a more grounded and abstract way, Just for your eyes The film still has plenty of high-octane action, and its atmospheric opening is a solid showcase for Moore’s strongest Bond role.

A lot of No time to dieCraig’s marketing highlighted the action throughout the dusty Italian streets of the opening, featuring some of the best shots filmed throughout Craig’s entire run of Bond films. From swinging on ancient bridges to unleashing his beloved Aston Martin DB5 twin machine guns against a small army, all the physicality and style for which Craig’s Bond is known is on display. Like the rest of the movie itself, No time to dieThe film’s opening goes on for a bit too long, but it sets the stage beautifully for Craig’s swan song in the role.
