Released in 1962, this first James Bond movie remains one of the best, and serves as an entertaining reminder that the Bond series began (in keeping with Ian Fleming's novels) with a surprising lack of gadgetry and big-budget fireworks. Sean Connery was just 32 years old when he won the role of Agent 007. In his first adventure James Bond is called to Jamaica where a colleague and secretary have been mysteriously killed. With an American CIA agent (Jack Lord, pre-Hawaii Five-O), they discover that the nefarious Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman) is scheming to blackmail the U.S. government with a device capable of deflecting and destroying U.S. rockets launched from Cape Canaveral. Of course, Bond takes time off from his exploits to enjoy the company of a few gorgeous women, including the bikini-clad Ursula Andress. She gloriously kicks off the long-standing tradition of Bond women who know how to please their favorite secret agent. A sexist anachronism? Maybe, but this is Bond at his purest, kicking off a series of movies that shows no sign of slowing down. --Jeff Shannon

ReviewsBond on Blu-ray... Outstanding!Review date: 2010-07-01 Rating: 10 out of 10I just purchased Dr. No & Goldfinger on Blu-ray, and the sound, resolution and colors are better than the original movies shown in theaters. It is the finest version of these two movies I have ever seen. Dr. No was scanned from the original negative, which was in very good shape despite its years of handling and use.
I distinctly remember reading an article in one of the men's magazines, probably True, back in the late 1950s titled, "The Nude of Crab Key." I cannot find any online references to this article, but it must have been done by Ian Fleming as an excerpt from his novel. It would be fun to chase this lead down.A true originalReview date: 2010-06-26 Rating: 10 out of 10This was Bond as it always should be. The first few Bond movies were quite close to the original Fleming novels, and Dr. No led it off.
Bond is cool, sexy, and somewhat cold, as when he goes to bed with a female foil and then amusedly hands her over to the local cops.
Somehow, Bond is mis-identified as a 'secret' agent, because I can't recall too many situations where his status as an agent remained unidentified for long. Dr. No is no exception. The bad guys have a line on him as soon as he arrives on the island, literally, and it never stops from there.
Some of the younger 'video game movie' set may find Dr. No somewhat tame for their tastes. But oh, what they are missing. :-)007 Dr NoReview date: 2010-06-20 Rating: 10 out of 10Its an old movie for a collection. It came to us on time as promised. Timly deliver is very important to me,it tells me the seller knows customer service is a must and I would buy from them again.You need to see this!Review date: 2010-06-12 Rating: 10 out of 10If you haven't seen the remastered editions of the James Bond series, then you really don't know what you are missing. They've been restored so beautifully, that sometimes I focus too much on how good the movie looks and miss some of the story. Not only are they restored, but the original prints have even been cleaned up, so even if you saw this film at the theater when it came out, this print looks better. It looks as if this movie was filmed yesterday, and trust me, that actually makes a world of difference. Get it and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
