I've never watched a Bond film before. Every time I talk to a Bond fan they always tell me that if I ever watch one, watch Skyfall.

Plus, it's directed by the guy that did American Beauty and 1917, so I may actually be inclined to check it out one day.

Goldeneye is probably the best one to watch for someone who's never watched Bond. Skyfall is good but not really a great representation of what a Bond film is. I would say Connery's movies probably capture what a Bond film is the best, but they might be too dated for some people. Goldeneye is always a pretty safe choice.

The Craig movies are everything I don't want in a Bond film. Genric gritty action flick #69, oh how exciting. Glad we at least have Man From UNCLE and Kingsmen to keep up the Bond feel still.

I have been told that, and while that may be the case, Bond without the feel that Brosnan, Connery, or Moore portrayed isn't what I want from the movies at all. Craig is a dull and lifeless Bond. No humor, charisma, or fun.

I hope whoever takes the mantle next brings some fun and life back to the character.

Skyfall was good but completely switched tone during the last act. The last act was the best part of the movie, but it was just weird.

The movie was beautifully shot though.

Casino is great.
Quantum is better than it gets credit for.
Skyfall is great.
SPECTRE is fine.
NTTD is great.

quantum is like motion sickness: the movie.i dont think its truly bad but people dont exaggerate when they talk about how bad the editing is

the best part of the movie is the villain being so hilariously hopelessly outclassed by bond that he spends most of the final fight either getting pummeled or hurting himself. the part where he slams an axe into his own foot is like something from an austin powers movie

lol at the idea of thunderball being worse than it though. not even the worst connery movie gtfo

Skyfall has a great theme song. And a pretty good premise. But overall the story sucks. Casino Royale is the only good one he did.

Why they started to get into his personal life is beyond me. I needed a man, a number, and a cool story. That's it.

It's a tossup between Diamonds or YOLT. Diamonds has a really dumb plot and Connery is half asleep through most of it, and YOLT has long boring stretches where nothing interesting happens scattered throughout it. Both also have good points (The former has one of my favorite car chases in any bond movie, and the latter has Donald Pleasance as the most iconic blofeld in the series) but they're also both way less beautifully shot and atmospheric than Thunderball

Of course if we're counting Never Say Never Again that's the worst connery movie but I wasn't when I said that

Casino Royale and Skyfall are the only two that were good and engaging.

SPECTRE a huge let down
NTTD was just a sad pathetic Bond movie

I thought Thunderball was really boring, but I enjoyed You Only Live Twice.

Diamonds are Forever is without a doubt the worst Connery one though. It's stupid, but not in any good ways.
