    Aside from the fact that it started one of the most famous franchises in film history, I don't see much value in the film itself. I think it's quite terrible. Stale cinematography; zero character development; no themes; underwhelming action; unnecessary characters (without Ursula Andress the film wouldn't lose a thing). Connery is fine and there are some "iconic" moments but this feels more like a cultural artifact than a film now. 2 years 6 months ago

    Being a big fan of the books but never having seen the Pre Craig Bond thought I'd finally get round to seeing them all.

    Have to say I'm a little disappointed with Dr. No.
    Incredibly PG, why add Fenix, and I don't think I heard a Jamaican accent in the whole movie. Terrible fight scenes; not sure why Connery is so bad at fighting, being a navy man.

    Would have loved to have seen Bond struggling to get through the infamous obstacle course.

    Can see why they changed the book climax ending though :D but I think death by guano is much more classic Bond than death in a lab and should have been left in.

    A real epoch making film. Has the feel that they were doing something fairly new when it came to action films. 13 years 6 months ago
