Bond vs. Silva (Javier Bardem). | | 24 | Spectre | 2015 | | Bloated but pretty. Ties back to earlier films. | | 25 | No Time to Die | 2021 | | Emotional finale. Earns its runtime. | Here’s a full write-up covering all James Bond

Best of the era: Casino Royale, Skyfall

4. Story Arc Order (Craig Only)

Casino Royale → Quantum of Solace → Skyfall → Spectre → No Time to Die
(Skip the older Bonds if you just want a single, modern story.) For a Newcomer (The 6-Film Crash Course):

19. The World Is Not Enough (1999)

Verdict: Middle of the Road Sophie Marceau is fantastic (the real villain); Denise Richards as a nuclear physicist ("Christmas Jones") is laughable. The boat chase is incredible.
