James Bond films

Timothy Dalton’s first outing as James Bond demonstrates a return to par that had sadly been lacking for much of Roger Moore’s reign. Although not entirely without unnecessary gadgets,the juvenile humour that is so evident in the Moore era is largely gone, and the film relies upon a good story rather than disconnected set pieces [...]

Another disastrous outing for 007. The plot is confused, the villain is weak, Roger is getting just too old, and why on earth would good old Q be sent to work in the field. And more – the link between the Faberge egg andthe atomic bomb I just don’t understand; the action is weak and [...]

I’ll start off by saying that I am biased; The Man With The Golden Gun is the very first Bond film I saw (at the cinema, before they had even showed Dr No on television) and so it will always have a special place in my heart. Conventional wisdom has it that The Man With [...]

On Her Majesty’s Secret Service marks a return to James Bond’s roots in that it closely follows Ian Fleming’s story, but is let down by the casting of George Lazenby. Slightly harder edged than Connery’s Bond had ever been, Lazenby just doesn’t make the role his own, and in many respects is a poor imitation [...]

You Only Live Twice marks a turning point in the series, as it is the first James Bond film that was not based on an Ian Fleming story. While Fleming’s novel of the same name is setin Japan and features Blofeld, little else remains apart from the characters Tiger Tanaka and Dikko Henderson – and [...]
