Great action, maybe a bit too intense for young viewers.
This is a great old action flick. It is a bit boring at the start but the last few scenes on Dr. No's island are great. 7year old kids might be a bit scared but great movie.
Surprisingly not a very good Bond film; extremely cheesy. Since violence is quite minimal and mild, and sexual content only goes up to the point of innuendo and kissing (what surprise for Bond!), this would probably still keep its PG rating today.
My rating: PG for mild action violence, infrequent drinking/smoking, mild language and some sensuality.
First bond flick is dated, but still quiet entertaining.for most.
The very first James Bond movie ever is Dr. No, which debuted back in 1962. The funny thing about this movie is that, even though the title isn't much to talk about, who knew that it would span over twenty spy flicks over the years and huge amount of success and money for the creator, stars, directors and anyone else associated with these movies. But, since it was made in 1962, the fact that this movie is dated goes with out saying. Bond womanizing and card board cut out female characters appear extremely out of place in today's society. Also, this movie is Rated PG, but would be much closer to a PG-13 by today's standards: With frequent partial nudity and sensuality, not to mention some intense action with plenty of people being killed with out a shred or remorse, what so ever. Still, it makes for a great first out in what was to be one of the most successful movie franchises ever.
this is is a fantastic start to the 007 franchise. though it may startle young viewers. I saw this film when I was 10 or 11 I'm not quiet shore how old but it got a little cavey when 007 is in a cell with an electric air vent (spoiler warning) and hot water pours over him. again, very good movie, good to watch with your kids 11 and up.
