A harder hitting Bond

On Her Majesty's Secret Service does loose some magic due to the absence of Mr. Connery, but with the violence pumping up to a higher level it still hits his target.... Full review

There's a lot of negativity centered around this installment. i don't really understand why. By time Connery was in You Only live twice he started looking a little older and the stories were getting silly. O.H.M.S.S. had a great story gave... Full review

This movie isn't very original for a critically acclaimed movie. If you like foreign movies it will remind you of certain other Japanese and Asian movies. The movie is well produced no doubt about that, but very predictable. One thing about... Full review

When it comes to OHMSS, I've seen alot of different opinions on it. Some love it and others hate it. For me, it was okay, but not one of my favorites. George Lazenby will be remembered for being the one-hit-wonder of... Full review

Shean Connery would of done better. This is a good movie though. It's worth buying if you're a collector. The story is very important and it leads up to "Diamonds Are Forever". Over all it's not junk, But i've seeb better... Full review
Criminally Underrated Bond Flik

It seems that the best Bond movies result from staying close to the Fleming source material and spirit. This was the case with Connery's first three films, usually considered the pinnacle of the series. But would it make a difference as... Full review
worst 007 movie of all

puppymoz007 - yahoo.com
I did not think this actor was a good 007. I think this was the worst compared to all the other 007 movies. He barely used a gun in this 007. It was basically only fighting. He was also weak compared... Full review

Goerge lazenby is the worst james bond i have ever seen. First of all he took the role way to seriosly. The charecter was nothing like bond at all. And another thing james bond never takes a relationship seriosly. I cant... Full review

Lazenby put on a fairly well performance. Why did Bond get married? I did not get that. Obviously the writters and Ian Flemming wanted someting different. Blofield, head of SPECTER returned to rid the world of 007. The high speed ski-... Full review

Three Movie Buffs
the best Bond movie....the worst scene in the movie, which is a montage of scenes of Bond and Tracy falling in love....the best movie....However, in a scene like Bond's escape from Blofeld's mountaintop fortress and the subsequent chase down the mountain Lazenby does really well..... ...

Artillery-laden ski pursuits, incredible stunts and even a spectacular avalanche drive this action-packed epic to a sensational climax.....George Lazenby leaps into the role of Agent 007 with supreme confidence and undeniable charisma..... ... Full Review

A rougher, readier but more rounded 007, On Her Majesty's Secret Service also boasts an extremely taut biological warfare plot that remains among the series' most sophisticated.....it's a tribute to his performance....Though hesitant to start with, Lazenby quickly gets into his stride..... ...

James Berardinelli's Reviews
The film contains some of the most exhilarating action sequences ever to reach the screen, a touching love story, and a nice subplot that has agent 007 crossing (and even threatening to resign from) Her Majesty's Secret Service. The man they chose, a model named George Lazenby, is boring , and his ineffectualness lowers the picture's quality. ... Full Review

which may all account for the film's lackluster reputation.....It's a big movie, with good stunts, virtually no gadgets, plenty of fisticuffs, and maybe more sex than any of the series' other installments..... ... Full Review
