DR. NO (Theatrical Release UK 1962)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.2|5.0 Starsìììì

Dr. No—the first James Bond movie—had so much entertainment value that it demanded rapid release of three more Bond stories: From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, and Thunderball and was followed by an additional 20 movies with another scheduled for a 2019 release. This film is as entertaining as any single Bond film in the rest of the series. It features Sean Connery as James Bond, does not disappoint, and is completely worth watching despite its age. Great work for all involved.
