Movie Reviews

Bond....James Bond:)
03/16/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I can tell you this...if you're a Bond fan, see this...you will thoroughly love it. Interviews with all 5 Bonds (Sellers and Nelson are missing, but who cares). Clips from a ton of films, Q and more. It's a fun-filled hour or so for us Bond-maniacs.I saw it on AMC one night earlier this year and was wondering if it would make it to video. I am glad it is!"
Bond for beginners...

"This documentary, which only barely scratches the surface of Bond is not only very short, but also not well researched. How well can a documentation about 19 (official) movies be, when it only last about an hour? It is more than obvious, that the people who created this DVD did not know what they were talking about. They even show an interview with Maud Adams, who did appear in Golden Gun and Octopussy, but still say that no Bondgirl actress appeared twice in different movies... After watching this, owners of Bond DVDs, will be frustrated they spent money on this. Each one (!) of the Bond DVDs includes more features and more interesting documentations. In my opinion, they should have put these documentaries on a DVD Set by themselves. Instead, they created this documentation with all that was left over... or so it seems. Don't buy it, if you own Bond DVDs! If you are a newcomer to the Bond phenomenon, and only own a few Bonds on VHS, this is a good, but very basic overview of all things Bond."
The Story of Bond....James Bond.

"Are you a bond fan? This is the movie for you! Filled with exciting information on all the James bond films from Dr. No to The World is Not Enough, this story is one not to be missed. Also included are interviews with many people of the "Bond Family" including Cubby Broccoli, Michael G. Wilson, Terence Young, John Glen, Louis Gilbert, Maud Adams, Jane Seymour, Pierce Brosnan, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Sean Connery, George Lazenby and many more.... There are also exclusive interviews with Ian Fleming from his home Goldeneye in Jamaica. This story contains chapters on the Bond girls, exotic locations, the novels of Ian Fleming and many more. The only downer to this is the very droll voice of narrator Miranda Richardson. Telling the tales of the movies, the novels and James Bond himself- this story should be in everyone's collection who calls themself a Bond fan!"
A Definitive Bond Story!

"If you are a Bond fan you will enjoy this video. If you are not a Bond fan you probably will enjoy this video. In less than an hour, the JB Story takes you into the fantasy world of the legendary hero (from Sir Sean Connery to Pierce Brosnan) his women, and gadgets and villains. The video also provides you with a biographical sketch of the 007 creator, Ian Fleming and his reclusive Goldeneye in the Bahamas. Either way, you cannot lose if you watch this video because it will hold your attention regardless of your gender. The hold is this-the video explores the mystique of the venerable superman and why he has been so immensely popular to both sexes internationally for four decades. He is every man's wannabe and every woman's desire. He is James Bond 007 and he is here to stay!"
