Disaster - certainly not a Bond film, 5 April 2013

I am a great fan of all Bond films - some better than others, this one was like an expensive "B" movie and definitely the worst one ever made, with terrible acting (by everyone, including Diana Rigg), ridiculous storyline, boring monologue and very little action till the end, even that was disappointing. I commented while watching it, it was like a long episode of the Avengers, but not as good.

You can tell from the very beginning of the film that something is amiss, when Lazenby looks straight into the camera and says "that never happened to the other fellow" - shocking & amateurish!

One Of The Best Bonds, 5 April 2013

Just got through watching this Bond spoof during a Bond movie marathon (at home), first time I have seen it - it was very funny in parts with some great one liners and a 60's star studded cast. Even Ursula Andress acts far better than she did in Dr No. You can see from this movie where Mike Myers got his inspiration for Austin Powers, most of it is so obvious, even using Burt Bacharach tunes and "fembots" to name two simiarities.

An underrrated gem - far superior to some of the earlier serious Bond like "From Russia with love" and "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", which should never have been made - particuarily the terrible "B" movie, George Lazenby in OHMSS.

Worth A Watch, 17 Dec 2012

Contrary to other views, this film was enjoyable to watch, and yes, like panic room without the big star names / well acted / well scripted - not a bad movie. Judge for yourself
