Best Bond Movies for Action

edited January 2012 in Bond Movies Posts: 4,762
Based on my similar thread for villains, which movies in the series has the best action in your opinion?

My list would probably include YOLT, TSWLM, FYEO, OP, TLD, LTK, GE, TND, and QoS

    A Best Bond Movie for Action?

    OHMSS




    Everything else

    Each Bond-actor has one film that stands out as more action-filled and dramatic, in my opinion: FRWL for Connery, OHMSS for Lazenby (his only film of course, but still - it got some great action scenes), FYEO for Moore, LTK for Dalton, GE for Brosnan, and CR for Craig.

    In terms of quality action I'd go for OHMSS, TLD, GE and CR

    In terms of quantity TND must be a contender for the highest number of action scenes.

    Oh, good idea!

    Let's see:
    -CR and QoS(obviously)
    -TB(rousing action on land and sea/one of the most action packed Connery adventures)
    -YOLT(hate the film, but the battle in the volcano fortress is epic to say the least)
    -DAF
    -FRWL(good action, realistic compared to other Bond films)
    -OHMSS
    -GE
    -TND

    QOS had most action but it was terrible action.

    The best action was in LTK (plane fishing, plane water skiing, shootouts, barfights, truck chase, etc), and CR (free running. coolest thing ever). Shout out for GE too.

    After watching The Living Daylights today, I really do think that it has some terrific action scenes, such as the PTS, the Blayden Safehouse, the car chase in Czechoslovakia, Bond's escape from the embassey where Pushkin was "assassinated", and of course, the entire finale, complete with the classic cargo net fight with Necros.

    Best action 1960s-, Thunderball, 1970s,- Moonraker, 1980s,- Octopussy, 1990s,- Goldeneye, 2000s, - Casino Royale

    I did that off the top of my head in one spontaneous action and I think that's a fair outcome

    Cnat really argue with any of that. TLD cargo net is possibly the greatest stunt of the series.

    I'm a bit of a sucker for anything in GE - especially the PTS bunjee jump.

    Though the final plane fight in TLD is awesome.

    Love the action in TSWLM, FYEO, TND, GE, CR, TLD, and maybe FRWL (not too much action, I think, but the train scene fight is great and classic)

    Ok, do you completely love him as Bond? Or perhaps also in other movies, like the amazing "The Man From Hong Kong"?

    Thank you. And you are a OHMSS lover I suppose. Perhaps a fan of the novels also?

  • I THINK THERE OKAY. I PREFERE THE FILMS. BY THE WAY, DID YOU SAY YOU HAD A CHANCE TO MEET LAZENBY ONCE

    Yes, a week ago. I never went, I don´t wanna spend several hours in a queue just to say hi, get an autograph and then leave. One of my friends in the Swedish forum I originate from did, however.

    I was working 11:45-21 that day also, so it was impossible.

    21 years old. He was here in Gothenburg. The price for a ticket was 100 kr, which is about 10 Pounds perhaps.
