But I myself cant come to find it exciting, mysterious, or anything. Nothing happens in it.
Thats why i really like Moores stuff, they are right in the middle of the spectrum imo and they have fun (but not too fun) with the entire concept.
Great - FRWL, GF, OHMSS, TSWLM, FYEO, GE, CR
Good/Enjoyable - YOLT, LALD, TMWTGG, MR, OP, TLD, LTK, TND, QoS
Meh - TB, DAF, AVTAK, TWINE, DAD
I still need to watch Dr. No again to see where I would place it, but this is pretty much my list from viewing the films two months ago.
1. Casino Royale (2006) - 10/10
2. Goldfinger (1964) - 10/10
3. From Russia With Love (1963) - 9.5/10
4. Dr. No (1962) - 9/10
5. On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) - 9/10
6. Thunderball (1965) - 8.5/10
7. The Living Daylights (1987) - 8.5/10
8. GoldenEye (1995) - 8.5/10
9. Quantum of Solace (2008) - 8/10
10. The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) - 8/10
11. You Only Live Twice (1967) - 7.5/10
12. License to Kill (1989) 7.5/10
13. Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) - 7/10
14. For Your Eyes Only (1981) - 7/10
15. Octopussy (1983) - 7/10
16. Live and Let Die (1973) - 7/10
17. The World Is Not Enough (1999) - 6/10
18. Diamonds Are Forever (1971) - 5.5/10
19. Moonraker (1979) - 5.5/10
20. A View to a Kill (1985) - 5.5/10
21. Die Another Day (2002) - 5/10
22. The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) - 5/10
Changes:
The World Is Not Enough has moved -3 spaces, and has fallen from a 7/10 to a 6/10.
The Man with the Golden Gun was upgraded from a 4/10 to a 5/10. Still in last place, though.
A View to a Kill was upgraded from a 5/10 to a 5.5/10. It needs all the half points it can get.
For Your Eyes Only has moved +3 spaces.
Bond films 1-10 range from phenomenal to very good
Bond films 11-16 are also good films, just not as good as the top 10
Bond films 17-22 are just alright, the lesser of the bunch (For varying reasons)

3. From Russia with Love 10

I find the older I get, the older films appeal to me more. The likes of DN, FRWL, GF, TB and YOLT. Whilst my standard favourites OP, TLD and TSWLM always make my top ten. I can't see a day when OP will be knocked off of the #1 spot.
