keven q @kevenquinlan 4d I have no idea why Lazenby was panned before he even was screened. Listen, I like Connery and was glad ha had a late career resurgence, but I never thought he was all that and given the 'era' of cinema, I didn't think it required much acting. He was good- that's all. Lazenby I thought was Awesome. He was what Bond should've been. And the movie was the best they'd made so far. I hope everyone gets a chance to watch it b/c if you don't like it than NONE of Sean Connery's were any good.

A trama mostra Bond enfrentando novamente Blofeld enquanto, de forma inédita, se envolve emocionalmente a ponto de se casar — algo que quebra a essência clássica do personagem. A decisão de matar a recém-esposa no final soa forçada e melodramática, mais próxima de um drama classe C do que de um thriller de espionagem sofisticado. Nota:** **2 / 10** See more Ed B. @EdLee Jan 4 On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is pivotal in Bond franchise as we’re introduced to another player as 007 for the first time. It’s also unique that James Bond gets married in the film. Action is done well as one might expect. The setting is in Swiss Alps. Lot of machine guns and snow skiing. Pretty women of course. Also, Telly Savalas as Blofeld is cast perfectly.

The endless Bond girls return with predictable twists and little chemistry, while much of the action lacks punch and relies on sped-up footage that feels unintentionally comedic. Still, the film shows signs of evolution: fight scenes are more elegant than before, and the ski chase stands out as a genuinely creative highlight despite messy camera work. George Lazenby brings a refreshing physicality to the role, making his short-lived run feel like a missed opportunity. Unfortunately, outdated attitudes and uneven execution hold the film back, leaving it as a step forward that never fully breaks free. See more Matthew T Nov 15 The most overrated Bond movie of all time. The jokes fall flat, the script is Austin Powers without the fun, gadgets are absent, and the action is sub just about every other entry (even the much lauded ski chase has been done better in the Spy Who Loved Me, World is Not Enough and... hey, I'd take View to a Kill over these clunky VFX). George Lazenby, though looking and sounding, is ultimately overshadowed by all actors fore and after. For some fans though, it's the greatest entry, probably largely because of the last shocking scene. But one tear jerk is not enough to justify wading through the rest of the movie. A physically imposing Blofeld and the divinely posh Diana Rigg are about all there is to recommend it. Remade in the almost equally poor Spectre and the somewhat superior No Time to Die, where the shocker of an ending is switched. It rests near bottom of my Bond rankings (Spectre alone is below), but I will say again that this movie does have its fans (bemusing as that is), possibly because of its more serious tone (but Dalton's Bond, and at times Craig's, does this FAR FAR better). Watch for historical interest only or if (like me) you are a diehard fan. See more Lanfranco C @Lanfrancobz Nov 8 The best Bond than ever! See more Read all reviews
