Released in 1962, this first James Bond movie remains
one of the best, and serves as an entertaining reminder that
the Bond series began (in keeping with Ian Fleming's novels)
with a surprising lack of gadgetry and big-budget fireworks.
Sean Connery was just 32 years old when he won the role of Agent
007. In his first adventure James Bond is called to Jamaica where
a colleague and secretary have been mysteriously killed. With
an American CIA agent (Jack Lord, pre-Hawaii Five-O), they discover
that the nefarious Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman) is scheming to blackmail
the U.S. government with a device capable of deflecting and destroying
U.S. rockets launched from Cape Canaveral. Of course, Bond takes
time off from his exploits to enjoy the company of a few gorgeous
women, including the bikini-clad Ursula Andress. She gloriously
kicks off the long-standing tradition of Bond women who know
how to please their favorite secret agent. A sexist anachronism?
Maybe, but this is Bond at his purest, kicking off a series of
movies that shows no sign of slowing down. --Jeff
