A good movie

Georges Lazenby will always be the black sheep among the James Bond actors. Indeed, he is the only guy who made just one movie while even Timothy Dalton managed to make two of those. Personally, I find it difficult to judge him since he would have needed a couple of movies to make the part is own. Futhermore, the guy was actually a model and completely unknown and it wasn't the easiest task to take over from Sean Connery, the best James Bond ever. Still, there was something interesting about casting a raw talent to play this character. Indeed, because of his lack of skills and experience, Lazenby's acting was more physical and it was an interesting approach to portray this legendary character. Like I said before, the opinions are quite extreme about this movie as many people wouldn't care for it but you also have some fans who argue that it is the best Bond movie ever made. First of all, it is one of the most faithful adaptations of an Ian Fleming novel and virtually everything in the book occurs in the film. It was also the first time James Bond really fell in love (It will never happen again until 'Casino Royale') and it was also the longest Bond movie (once again until 'Casino Royale' which was 4 minutes longer). Personally, I think it is one of the better Bond flicks. I mean, I don't think I'm a huge fan of this franchise but I think it is one of the better installments and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
