Ranking James Bond Films: #4 – “The Spy Who Loved Me” (1977)
The Spy Who Loved Me surpassed expectations and stands tall as Roger Moore’s crowning achievement as 007.
Ranking James Bond Films: #7 – “Goldeneye” (1995)
So many explosions. Really, an ungodly amount of explosions. But who cares?
Ranking James Bond Films: #9 – “The Living Daylights” (1987)
Timothy Dalton’s first of two outings as James Bond doesn’t have nearly the campiness or seductive power that Roger Moore and Sean Connery end up dripping to. Smiling is not something that Dalton’s 007 is prone to.
Ranking James Bond Films: #10 – “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” (1969)
Hello, Diana Rigg. I would like to profess my love for you.
Ranking James Bond Films: #14 – “Thunderball” (1965)
The fourth Bond movie in four years, Thunderball starts to show the straining wrinkles that would plague overstuffed Bond movies set to come in the future.
Ranking James Bond Films: #16 – “A View To Kill” (1985)
Roger Moore knew he was too old to play Bond, but dammit if he didn’t give it one final go.
Ranking James Bond Films: #17 – “Diamonds Are Forever” (1971)
Diamonds Are Forever won’t stick in your memory forever, but it’ll occupy two hours and give you a bit of a callback to the better bits of Connery as Bond, even if it doesn’t reach the potential peak.
Ranking James Bond Films: #19 – “Tomorrow Never Dies” (1997)
And yes, I know this is three straight Brosnan films in a row. That says something, doesn’t it?
Ranking James Bond Films: #21 – “The World Is Not Enough” (1999)
I’m terribly sorry, but Denise Richards drains the swamp with her role in The World Is Not Enough.
Ranking James Bond Films: #23 – “Octopussy” (1983)
Can we be real? The name of this film stinks.
Ranking James Bond Films: #24 – “You Only Live Twice” (1967)
Alright, we have our first bad Sean Connery James Bond movie. It has happened.
Ranking James Bond Films: #25 – “License To Kill” (1989)
Rather than staying the course and touching up smaller cracks from a solid reboot, director John Glen and Dalton decided to take another sharp turn with License To Kill.
Ranking James Bond Films: #26 – “Moonraker” (1979)
It’s bad. It’s really bad. It is the worst.
