My Top 10 Bond Movies
By an Amazon.com customer
GoldfingerGoldfinger
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $4.74
Goldfinger remains the quintesential Bond movie. It is near perfection. Bond: Do you expect me to talk, Goldfinger? Goldfinger: No Mr. Bond, I expect you to DIE!
Casino Royale (2-Disc Widescreen Edition)Casino Royale (2-Disc Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $3.09
Yeah, I think that Daniel Craigs initial outing is that good. I could never have expected them to knock this one so far out of the ballpark.
ThunderballThunderball
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $4.99
Great locations, great casting and one of the few Bond movies that stay close to the Ian Fleming book.
A View To A Kill - 2-Disc Ultimate EditionA View To A Kill - 2-Disc Ultimate Edition
Buy used from: $10.00
I know, I know. This one gets maligned as much as any Bond film out there but it has some wonderful locations, terrific music and Christopher Walken. The Bond girls on the other had. Yikes.
You Only Live TwiceYou Only Live Twice
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $6.05
No Bond film is parodied more than 'You Only Live Twice' but it's immitated because in many ways it set the standard. You can still see echoes of YOLT even in more recent films like The Incredibles. Also, the music is some of the best ever.
GoldenEyeGoldenEye
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $4.06
Without a doubt the best Pierce Brosnan Bond movie although that isn't saying a lot. So much promise... such a wasted decade.
MoonrakerMoonraker
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $6.22
This is one of the silliest of all Bond movies but it's also one of the funnest. It has some great music and a spectacular opening stunt. The Bond producers wisely toned down the schtick in the next movie but for pure entertainment Moonraker hard to beat.
The Spy Who Loved MeThe Spy Who Loved Me
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $4.52
It ranks third on my list of Roger Moore films but it probably is his best.
Dr. NoDr. No
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $6.73
It's definitely the cheapest Bond and it's missing many of the staples but it's still a classic and holds up well after all these years.
On Her Majesty's Secret ServiceOn Her Majesty's Secret Service
Buy used from: $18.97
Poor George Lazenby. He was actually a pretty darn good Bond but he totally missread the public's dedication to Bond. Oh well. He did manage to squeeze out one pretty good Bond film before fading into obscurity.
