Great list!

I’d move some around a bit but very close to what I remember when I watched them all like 5-6 years ago.

The George Lazenby one is truly underrated.

Hear, hear! Director/Editor Peter Hunt had a style all his own!

I'd go with overrated

The plot is good but the acting undoes everything

[–] raoulraoul@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Yeah, you pretty much nailed it. I'd have shuffled a few around but not by much.

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Now add also Woody Allen's casino Royale lol

Jokes apart I mostly agree with the whole list. But I'd put lazenby close to bottom and octopussy s bit higher

Someone doesn't like Roger Moore's Bond, huh?

I felt like they were just mostly OK. Not bad for the most part, but not as good as many others. I did feel his run was way, way too long.
