Review of Dr. No (1962) by Adam H — 02 Sep 2011
Dr. No is undeniably entertaining but it did not find the ideal rhythm that makes the series truly work. Mix in some suspect acting, an action-lite and simple plot and it fails to stand out amongst those which come later.
Despite these flaws Connery slipped into the role perfectly, finding a blend of class, intelligence and wit that has rarely been matched by his predecessor's first outings. It stands as the perfect platform from which the James Bond legacy built up from.
