Dr. No description
Amazon.com essential video Released in 1962, this first James Bond movie remains one of the best, and serves as an entertaining reminder that the Bond series began (in keeping with Ian Fleming's novels) with a surprising lack of gadgetry and big-budget fireworks. Sean Connery was just 32 years old when he won the role of Agent 007. In his first adventure James Bond is called to Jamaica where a colleague and secretary have been mysteriously killed. With an American CIA agent (Jack Lord, pre-Hawaii Five-O), they discover that the nefarious Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman) is scheming to blackmail the U.S. government with a device capable of deflecting and destroying U.S. rockets launched from Cape Canaveral. Of course, Bond takes time off from his exploits to enjoy the company of a few gorgeous women, including the bikini-clad Ursula Andress. She gloriously kicks off the long-standing tradition of Bond women who know how to please their favorite secret agent. A sexist anachronism? Maybe, but this is Bond at his purest, kicking off a series of movies that shows no sign of slowing down. --Jeff Shannon |

SAY YES TO DR. NO

| The first edition of the "James Bond" series may stand up forever as being the best . The movie is beautifully filmed; the background music is apt, the acting has no apparent weakpoints. The story is fairly simple: two British agents have been murdered in Jamaica while investigating sub-space interference on rocket launches from Cape Canaveral, Fla. Connery (Bond) is dispatched to investigate. Cleverly avoiding 4 assassination attempts, Bond solicits help from Andress in investigating Crab Key, a remote island owned and operated by a feared Chinese megalomaniac, Dr. No. Bond turns the tables on this madman, first by escaping, then by rigging a "China Syndrome " which completely deestroys the island as he and Andress escape.Strange, but the movie hasn't aged a day in 45 years, even though John Kennedy was President and the L.A. Dodgers were sweeping the Yankees in the World Series. It's still a fresh, breezy, suspense movie well worth watching. |
