ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

Barring a television adaptation of Casino Royale in the 1950s (not to be confused with the 1967 movie of the same name), 1962's Dr. No was the first opportunity fans of Ian Fleming's James Bond had to watch the intrepid superspy in action. ...read the complete Dr. No movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

DVD Verdict (Harold Gervais)

Far be it for this judge to argue with 38 years and 19 films worth of success. Mr. Bond and company are released to save the world further.

Moviegnome.com

Our favorite suave spy got his big screen start here. It's been a bumpy ride at times, but it appears the Bond franchise (the most successful of them all) hasn't run out of steam quite yet. James Bond (Sean Connery), also known as 007, is assigned...read the complete Dr. No (1962) review at Moviegnome.com
