Advantages: 1st in the series, a good bond Disadvantages: can be a little slow
James Bond, the suave, sophisticated, womanising and deadly British agent from MI6 with a licence to kill. I don't think that there is a soul that has not at least heard of this legendary character.

I love the image of James Bond which is well-known throughout the world and will appeal to all those wannabe James Bonds or spies. I found the action in the film is relentless and provides exciting gun-battles and memorable baddies! The exotic location of the ...
