That's my reaction to Dr. No, which was a very mixed bag. Connery blew the opening "Bond, James Bond" when he muttered it out of his cigar, not to mention once Ursulla Andress was out of the bikini and her hair was dry, she was nowhere nearly as attractive as the other bond girls. Connery was also too young for the role. He looked a little depleted. <br>On the plus side, it was entertaining to see Connery crawl in the big vents, getting very dirty in the process.<br>So in the end, I would actually would give this a bad review. Although some of it's successors were much worse, this was one of the lamer bond movies. What?! That’s my reaction to Dr. No, which was a very mixed bag.

This is the purest statement of movie-form Bond, and everything else derives from here. Seems like the Bond movies which 'reset' away from encrustations of doodads and gimmickery to a simple, character-driven plot and believable action (eg On Her Majesty's Secret Service, the latest version of Casino Royale etc) use this as a point zero. They're also the best movies. Unfortunately, even here there's just a little bit of that naggingly ubiquitous Bond script racism: check the unfeasibly abandoned dancing by one or two of the native Jamaicans. It's up there with the 'hopping' Chinese soldiers in Goldfinger. Absolutely agree. This is the purest statement of movie-form Bond, and everything else derives from here.
