The Best and Worst James Bond films?

[Keith]

There have been just as many misses than hits in the Bond series, but when the formula works it is something very entertaining. So what are you favourite and least favourite Bond movies?
Also if you want do other lists such as Bond Villians and theme tunes for example.

Top Five Bond Films
1. From Russia With Love
2. Goldfinger
3. The Living Daylights (so underrated)
4. GoldenEye
5. Diamonds Are Forever

Worse Five Bond Films
1. A View to a Kill
2. The Man With the Golden Gun
3. On Her Majesty's Secret Service
4. For Your Eyes Only
5. You Only Live Twice

Licence to Kill & Living Daylights are brilliant.

Man With The Golden Gun & Moonraker are absolute shit.

Re: The Best and Worse James Bond films?

license to kill and goldeneye are my favs.quantom of solace was the worst.ill always think it was a huge mistake not casting henry cavill as james bond in 2006 instead of daniel craig.the idea was to do james bond in his mid twenties which woulda been great with cavill.as it stands does anyone really prefer daniel craig to pierce brosnen?i sure dont.

Daniel Craig is doing a pretty job at it. I'm not a HUGE fan of his work as James Bond, but I'm really not against it.

Disagree on Moonraker think it is one of Moores better ones. Great Bond Girl name too, Doctor Goodhead! lol.

Also think Creig is a good choice as he returns to the steely intensty of Delton and is also more of a everyman.

Worst one is the Lazenby film. On Her Majesty's Secret Service? The Dalton films sucked too. As do the Daniel Craig films. He's a shitty Bond.

Best? Goldeneye, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die, Goldfinger.

Speaking of Bond, is anybody going to see his new movie that's out soon?

I am pretty keen.

I really liked Goldeneye. The man with the Golden Gun sucked.

What didn't you like about the Dalton films? Outside of Connery I thought he was the best bond and could have become number one given more of a chance.

Yeah think I will see the new one.

 

[Dod Draper]

Don't have any particular reason, just didn't enjoy him as Bond.

Doubt I'll see the new one. Not interested in Daniel Craig.

Craig's Casino Royale was ok, but Quantum of Solace was bad...kind of ruined my hopes for the third, but I guess I'll give it a shot, remember seeing Bardem was in it. Could go either way.

Loved the Timothy Dalton ones, mainly because they were most realistic and didn't have all these ridiculous gadgets like a watch that turns into a nuclear bomb, made in Q's lab.

This plus he had the more intense qualities which the character should have and it was good to see him have just the one girl all the way through Living Daylights.

1962-2002 was the heyday for the James Bond franchise.
Every James Bond film made after 2002 has been terrible and boring in my opinion.

From memory I really liked The Spy Who Loved Me, Goldfinger, Goldeneye, Casino Royale, The Man With The Golden Gun, Live And Let Die, Moonraker and You Only Live Twice. Those were probably my favourites although I haven't seen them in years.

Ones I didn't like were Diamonds Are Forever, Her Majesty's Secret Service, Die Another Day, Quantum Solace and A View To a Kill but I barely remember them.
