I just watched the first 007 movie(Dr. No(1962)) and well its age shows though the film itself was rather good quality compared to newer movies. As for the content itself well for a movie from 1962 it holds up pretty well and is more entertaining the The Pink Panther(1963). Of course since its a movie from 60s it has its wackass stuff like in the scene where James Bond shoots the one guy in that one house of the Chinese woman who was the secretary to some official, James Bond ends up shooting him and the guy falls on the floor real goofy or where he drives the car to said woman’s house and a other car tries to run him off the road, where in those shots he clearly riding the car but for some reason they had to do this stupid 60s shit like in fantomas where when the guy is driving a car but hes not actually driving and the actual driving screen is a projector or something and it juts looks horrible or when the car trying to run off James Bond's car crashes down the hill its just wackass. Also the jokes James Bond makes are well rather aged and while they are still funny you aint gonna seriously go hahahahaha(well you might ironically for a bit or some shit), the best it will get out of me is a chuckle. As for the villain Dr.No, well his "death" is rather well underwhelming, you see James bond over heats the rather wackass nuclear reactor and then Dr.No tries to fight him off and they land on this stupid platform that’s apparently connected to the nuclear rods and basicly that platform submerges into the pool of water which is now boiling and well James Bond of course climbs on the structure and out while Dr.No cant, now Dr.No has robotic hands and for some reason that’s why he cant climb out of the structure slowly sinking into the hot water with his robotic hand holding the structure making his "death" rather terminator 2 like but here's the thing, he could just swim to the edge, would he have rather severe burns? probably, but would he survive? yes and its not like he couldn’t climb out of the pool because the ledge is barely high and in a modern movie he'd probably show up again later but he didn’t so that’s that. Anyways the entire thing blows up but for a nuclear explosion its rather wackass or maybe its secondary explosions from whatever but the nuclear reactor shouldn’t be that deep underground. Also the evil plot was to interrupt the Americans mission to go around the moon but all the video of the launch yapp about mercury which to my knowledge is Americas attampt at putting a American in space. Anyways they wanted to throw it off with GPS interference and they have one small satellite dish for that which is weird but even weirder is that they fuck around the nuclear reactor for that which is like tf you doing all that for. Also One of the things about crab island is that there’s a dragon there... said dragon is a shitty tracked vehicle with flamethrowers in front, before we actually see it James Bond and his lil crew encounter marks of the dragon which literally look like the track marks of a tracked vehicle. This entire dragon thing IS FUCKING STUPID. Anyways onto James Bond's lil crew at the end. James Bond meets a hot and attractive woman at the beach in something based on a bikini, personally i believe its just classic 60s sexism having a role like that but its not like i really give a shit about it. Anyways shes collecting sea shells there to sell for 50usd in Miami and shes apparently there cause he father brought her there because hes a marine biologist and they basically went everywhere where there’s shells so he went to crab island and never returned like many others. Anyways she said that she never went to school cause of all the travelling and her substitute was a encyclopedia which she would read from a to z, now here comes the stupid part, shes only at the letter T... IT DOESN’T TAKE 16 YEARS TO FINISH READING A ENCYCLOPEDIA. Next thing i'm gonna yapp about is the villains base, apparently there’s a luxus hotel there or some shit, like why bruh and they put sleeping pills in the coffee for some reason, also the ventilation system and the water stuff is interconnected which is honestly horrible and negligent design. Another thing when James Bond and Dr.No are talking over the "Dinner"(they didn’t eat anything) Dr.No calls James Bond a "stupid policemen" and while i get the policemen part the stupid part is just really stupid, especially coming from a smart guy like Dr.No. James bond is a very talented spy and MacGyver'd before that was even a term. Other stupid things: the decontamination scene and the electrified vent in James Bond's cell. Over all while i complained allot about it, its just what i like to do and overall its a rather good movie for its time and its entertaining which is honestly the only point that actually matters.
