Review of Everything or Nothing (2012) by Alex R — 28 Oct 2013
Everything or Nothing is the definitive documentary on the James Bond franchise. Following the lives of three key figures that were instrumental in the creation of James Bond. This is a must see for fans of the series, and it is an in depth look at the history of series, and features interviews from key people involved in the series.
Compared to other films that have discussed the Bond films, this is the film that tells the complete story. As a diehard Bond fan, I very much enjoyed this documentary and think it gives fans a terrific look inside the legacy of this amazing franchise.
I think this is the definitive documentary of James Bond, and as of yet gives you the history of the franchise and how it became the phenomenon it has become. The film successfully documents the series, but the only flaw here is that it's a tad too short.
This would have been a standout documentary if it would have been a two and half hour affair, due to the fact that there is a lot of ground to cover for this series, the films, the actors, filmmakers etc.
Nonetheless, this one is sure to satisfy any viewer, and I've seen my fair share of Bond documentaries, and as it stands, this is the best one out there. Skip watching The Story of James Bond, and check this one out, due to the fact that it goes back at the very beginning, and starts off at the creation of Bond by Ian Fleming in the pages of his 1953 novel Casino Royale; Everything or Nothing is sure to satisfy anyone looking for an in depth history of the Bond franchise.
