Dr. No

 

 

 

 Starring: Sean Connery

 Directed by: Terence Young

 Rated PG

 Genre: Action

 Original Release Year: 1962

 Synopsis: James Bond tries to foil a madman who is trying to hijack rockets from Cape Canaveral.

 My Thoughts: This is the first James Bond movie, it was something alright...it was pretty good.

   Scorecard

     Acting- Many say that Sean Connery is the BEST James Bond (it's arguable) but in his first run as the great Double 0 agent he does an awesome job! He was very exciting and very charming, exactly what James Bond should be. (1)

     Direction- The direction of this movie was a little off as it bounced around a little and it took away from the movies flow. I wasn't really impressed with the overall direction from this movie at all. (0)

     Story- Doctor Julius No is a reclusive mad scientist from SPECTRE (SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion) is trying to get revenge on the western world by using his brilliance to take over rockets and use them against the western world. James Bond is dispatched to try and stop him. This story was very well written and everything just went right for this story. (1)

     Expectations- This is the first Bond movie, every other movie after this one is going to be based on this one. While this movie MET expectations, it did not surpass those expectations. (1/2)

     Boring?- This is James Freakin' Bond...it is very hard to make him boring. Yes, there was down time in this film, and yes a few parts that dragged a little bit, but the overall movie was not boring in the least. (1)

  Final Score: 3 1/2 out of 5

 Final Thoughts: This movie was very fun to watch. If you are a fan of action movies with cool gadgets and hot babes, James Bond is your man. Yes there have been bad Bond movies, but this is the first one, and it was great! There have been better Bond movies too, but this is the first one. See it.
