Dr. No is a magnificent classic...what isn't there to love? Awesome exotic locales, campy 60's sets, Ursula Andress is hot...Sean Connery, come on![/b]
From Russia With Love is a bit gritty and cold, but very good and very exciting...better than any of the ones made in the past 13 years.
I don't know why, but I hate Goldfinger...everyone loves it, I just don't, inexplicably. It just doesn't do anything for me...Honor Blackman isn't that good-looking, either.
Thunderball was alright...in the middle.
YOLT was very good, and is one of my favorites. Awesome ending action scene.
OHMSS is good, but long and drawn out (longest Bond film of all; almost 2 1/2 hours) and is so sad. I read the book just before seeing the movie for the first time in 5 years, and I realized how much better the book was...but it was still a good movie. Slow at times.
Diamonds are Forever was cool, too...alas, nothing all that special about it.
I don't care so much for Live and Let Die, but it's alright.
The Man with the Golden Gun was my favorite when I was in fifth grade, (I even fashioned a "golden gun" from wood!), but in recent years, it's dropped into the middle-gray area. Christopher Lee is a great actor, though.
TSWLM is one of the best films of all time...got Jaws, Barbara Bach...huge battles, awesome locales, campy 70's music...aw man, heaven.
My current favorite is Moonraker. Got Jaws again...Venice, Rio de Janeiro, France...Lois Chiles...awesome everything, thrilling climax. Super bit awesome hit movie...en epic.
For Your Eyes Only is another one of my favorites. Love the Greek settings.
I don't think of Octopussy as that good of a Bond film; but it's alright. Using Maud Adams again was just a bad call.
A View to a Kill is cool....got Christopher Walken...
One of my favorites is The Living Daylights. I just love everything about it...fun, exciting...
License to Kill was just dark and disturbing, but not altogether a bad Bond.
GoldenEye is the only Brosnan film I like.
Tomorrow Never Dies didn't do much for me.
The World is Not Enough was a bad videogame, and a mediocre Bond film. Denis Richards is one of the hottest Bond girls ever, though...but the plot and everythingelse is just so stereotypical and lacklustre.
Die Another Day sucked...by far the worst, and just plain wful. This comes from a full-fledged Bonaholic, who's seen them all 5x...and that is bad. Bond is a secret agent...not a fucken super action hero. That whole giant space laser chasing him across Iceland was ridiculous...belongs in a sci-fi flick. Also, the hot blond Icelandic girl was so much better-looking than Halle Berry. SHE should've been the bond girl.
