In 2021 another chapter of the James Bond franchise came to a close with Daniel Craig’s swan song in No Time To Die. Of course, Bond never dies, and casting rumours are rapidly heating up with talk of who is taking on 007’s mantle. In that spirit, if you’d like to take a trip back down Bond lane, we’ve decided to do the math and find out exactly how long it will take you to watch all the movies.

So with 25 movies in the Bond lineup, how long will it take you to watch them all?

By my calculations, you’re looking at 3,207 minutes which rounds out to be 53 and a half hours or just over 2 days.

That’s a binge-watch that will have you both shaken and stirred.

If you’d like to accept this assignment you’re able to stream all the James Bond films over on Prime Video in Australia.
