Review of Dr. No (1962) by Dan S — 07 Oct 2012
A highly, highly over-rated first chapter to a decorated series, concerning James Bond and a mission that takes him to Jamaica in order to track down murders concerning a British agent. Connery is hands down the best to ever play the character, and the cinematography is breathtaking at times.
However, this movie just has not aged very well, as the action is usually corny, a lot of obviously staged punches and blows, and the dialogue and zingers are absolute eye-rollers. Still, entertaining to a degree, but it bogs down at times, but Connery's magnetizing presence goes yards as with most Bond films that are usually extremely silly.
