'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' had the book's plot pretty down pat, and was made in a kind of 'grand adventure' style, but of course it suffered from the choice of Lazenby - a professional model, not an actor - as Bond. No' showed the Fleming feeling for character and action, but introduced elements to the plot that detracted from the 'hard-boiled' spy story that Fleming thought he was writing 'Thunderball' came close, but that was because Fleming developed the story on commission for the film. In the original Bond series, only a handful of films really attempted to touch base with the novels of Ian Fleming. Reviewed by winner55 10 / 10 'Millenium' series James Bond - top-of-the-line! The most beautiful lake in the world for its microclimate and environment with prestigious villas and villages. The film ends at a breathtaking beautiful location of Lake Como, This time Bond gets to cool off with Caterina Murino n Eva Green. I miss those olden Bond villain's powerful henchmen. White n faces his henchmen, the most famous being Adolph Gettler, the man with a unique glasses who gets shot in the eye. Bond also faces the machete yielding terrorist Steven Obanno n his bodyguard. This time Bond faces Le Chiffre n his henchmen Valenka, Alex Dimitrios, Kratt, Carlos Nikolic and one of the world's best free runner Mollaka Danso, a freelance terrorist working for Chiffre n Dimitrios. Daniel Craig in this movie is in very good shape n at times his character is believable, which can run, sprint, endure both torture n poison and sometimes who gives a damn whether its shaken or stirred, unlike his predecessors. One of the best part is that we get to see a Bond who is inexperienced, vulnerable n his transition to a cold blooded killer is very well done. It has old skool action n thankfully there is no reliance on gadgets n cgi. This film has one of the best parkour chase sequence. Bond later uncovers the plot of the destruction of Skyfleet's prototype airliner by a private banker to terrorists known as Le Chiffre. In this one Bond pursues a bomb-maker which leads him to a corrupt official Alex Dimitrios in the Bahamas. So to achieve a licence to kill, he has to kill minimum two targets. Basically it is a reboot and here we get to see an MI6 operative promoted to 00 agent status by assassinating two targets. This is the twenty-first in the Bond series and the first film to star Daniel Craig as James Bond and my first Bond film seen in a theatre. Revisited it recently on a dvd which I own. I first saw this in 2006 with my family in a theatre. Reviewed by Fella_shibby 9 / 10 My fav Bond in one of my fav Bond movie and that too with an amazing parkour chase sequence.
