James Bond is arguably the most famous spy in cinematic history. Created by British author and journalist Ian Fleming in the early 1950s, the always-suave character with a license to kill has been at the center of 26 films, with the 27th, directed by Danny Boyle, planned for 2019.

Even the most devoted Bond fan would have to admit that not every Bond film is of equal quality. The series uses a winning combination of fast cars, cool gadgets, exotic locales and theme songs sung by top artists of the day, including Paul McCartney, Adele, and Carly Simon. And let's not forget the beautiful Bond girls.
Still, in some Bond films, plots can be stale, jokes can fall flat, and acting can come across as contrived, tired or uninspired.

Originally conceived by producer Charles K. Feldman as an entry to Eon Productions' James Bond series, which had already released four Bond films, 'Casino Royale' was instead released as a satirical spy comedy by the now-defunct Famous Artists Productions after Eon rejected the project.

The second Bond film starring Daniel Craig is both violent and fast-paced, with many critics such as Roger Ebert criticizing it as being too much of an action film.

> Favorable reviews: 66% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $51.2 million

> Domestic box office gross: $62.3 million
Following 1979's space-themed 'Moonraker,' Roger Moore returned two years later as Bond in 'For Your Eyes Only,' a more grounded entry in the series that was shot in England, Italy, Greece, and the Bahamas. The film follows Agent 007 as he attempts to retrieve a stolen automatic targeting attack communicator that can be used to control British military submarines.
11. 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' (1969)
> Starring: George Lazenby, Diana Rigg, Telly Savalas
> Favorable reviews: 64% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $22.8 million
This is the only film in which George Lazenby played 007, and the first Bond movie that did not star Sean Connery. When the movie was released, critics were not kind to Lazenby, a model who had never acted in a movie before. More recent assessments of the movie have shown a greater appreciation of Lazenby as a more vulnerable Bond. In 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service,' Bond battles Spectre leader Blofeld (Telly Savalas), who plans to use women from various countries to contaminate the world's food supply. The film is remembered for Blofeld's henchwoman Irma Bunt (Ilse Steppat) and for Bond love interest Teresa 'Tracy' Draco (Diana Rigg), who marries Bond and is killed by Bunt.

> Starring: Sean Connery, Akiko Wakabayashi, Mie Hama
> Favorable reviews: 69% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $43.08 million
'You Only Live Twice' is the last of the first five Bond movies starring Sean Connery, who sought to get out of Bondage and avoid typecasting. Like the previous four Bond films, 'You Only Live Twice' was a rousing success. In the movie, American and Soviet spacecraft vanish in orbit, and each nation blames the other. Bond travels to a Japanese island to confront Blofeld (Donald Pleasence), the head of the crime organization Spectre that is behind the disappearance of the spacecraft.
8. 'Thunderball' (1965)
> Starring: Sean Connery, Claudine Auger, Adolfo Celi
> Favorable reviews: 73% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $63.6 million
By the time 'Thunderball' was released in 1965, Connery had played the unflappable James Bond three times and was becoming concerned about being typecast. Still, the moviegoing public couldn't get enough of 007, and 'Thunderball' was a huge hit. In it, Bond goes to the Bahamas to try and keep Spectre villain Emilio Largo (Adolfo Celi) from holding the world hostage with stolen nuclear warheads. The movie is remembered for its underwater battle between scuba divers firing spears at each other.
7. 'GoldenEye' (1995)

6. 'The Spy Who Loved Me' (1977)
> Starring: Roger Moore, Barbara Bach, Curd Jurgens
> Favorable reviews: 76% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $46.8 million
There are highlights aplenty in 'The Spy Who Loved Me,' from the breathtaking skiing sequence at the beginning of the film to the conversion of the Lotus sports car into a missile-firing submarine. There is also one of the great Bond assassins in Jaws (Richard Kiel), a large man with metal teeth who chomps a shark to death. Jaws is employed by madman Karl Stromberg (Curd Jurgens), who tries to provoke a nuclear holocaust and then create a civilization under the sea. Bond reaches a detente with Russian spy Anya Amasova to try and stop Stromberg.
5. 'Dr. No' (1962)
> Starring: Sean Connery, Ursula Andress, Bernard Lee
> Favorable reviews: 82% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $16.1 million
'Dr. No' is the movie that launched the franchise. Producers Harold Saltzman and Albert Broccoli considered Cary Grant and James Mason, among other actors, to play the British agent, while Bond author Ian Fleming preferred David Niven. But once Connery won the role, he put his stamp on the character. The plot of 'Dr. No' revolves around a deranged scientific genius, Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman), who wants to disrupt the U.S. space program.
4. 'From Russia With Love' (1963)
> Starring: Sean Connery, Robert Shaw, Lotte Lenya
> Favorable reviews: 83% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $24.8 million
'From Russia With Love' is one of the few Bond movies whose plot addresses Cold War tensions. Bond travels to Istanbul to try and get hold of a Soviet decoding machine before the crime organization Spectre gets it. The film is also remembered for Bond's fight with humorless former KGB agent Rosa Klebb (Lotte Lenya), who tries to dispatch Bond with poison in the toe of her shoe.
3. 'Goldfinger' (1964)
> Starring: Sean Connery, Gert Frobe, Honor Blackman
> Favorable reviews: 89% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $51.1 million
This might be the archetype of Bond movies. First, the characters and actors: Gert Frobe plays the formidable Goldfinger; Shirley Eaton is the gold-painted Bond girl Jill Masterson; and Harold Sakata portrays lethal villain Oddjob, who wields a deadly bowler hat. Of course, Bond drives the ultra-cool, tricked-out Aston Martin, equipped with bullet-proof shield and machine guns. And the over-the-top plot involves Goldfinger's plan to contaminate the gold at Fort Knox to boost the value of his own gold supply. Not to mention, it is in 'Goldfinger' that Bond utters his most famous line: 'A Martini. Shaken, not stirred.'
2. 'Casino Royale' (2006)
> Starring: Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Judi Dench
> Favorable reviews: 89% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $167.5 million
James Bond 007 Mp4 Movies Download
2006's 'Casino Royale' is the first film to star Daniel Craig as James Bond. Fans and critics alike immediately took to the blond-haired Craig in the role. The film is considered a reboot of the series, and classic characters such as Q and Miss Moneypenny were absent from the script. Yet the focus on other characters, such as Bond himself, is strong compared to what was seen by many as an increasingly excessive focus on gadgetry in prior Bond films.
1. 'Skyfall' (2012)
> Starring: Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris
> Favorable reviews: 86% of audiences
> Domestic box office gross: $304.4 million
'Skyfall' is, according to fans and critics, the best Bond film of them all, a view is supported by the numbers. The film grossed more than $304 million at the domestic box office — $100 million more than 'Spectre,' which is the second-highest grossing film in the series. The film also scored five Oscar nominations (more than any other Bond film) and won two. It was also the first Bond movie to be filmed in China — an element that may have helped it become the first movie in the franchise to gross more than $1 billion worldwide.

With roguish charm and cool sophistication, Sean Connery inaugurated the long-running James Bond franchise with 1962’s Dr. No and remained the prototypical 007 among fans for decades despite five (and counting) other actors tackling the role.
Author Ian Fleming initially disagreed and denounced Connery as an unrefined and overgrown stuntman. But he changed his tune after seeing Dr. No and even inserted Scottish heritage into Bond’s background in subsequent novels.
Connery’s Bond movies laid the foundation for what became a standard formula throughout the franchise: elaborate stunts, high-tech gadgets, exotic locales, catchy one-liners and, of course, sexy and often outrageously named Bond Girls. But it was Connery himself, the first of the James Bond actors, who defined the role and set in stone the archetype for all others to follow.
'Dr. No' - 1962
In 1962, the movie-going world was introduced to James Bond, a British secret agent with a devil-may-care attitude and license to kill, and with it, the success of the spy movie in the 1960s was born. In this first film, Bond is sent to Jamaica to investigate the death of a fellow British agent, only to encounter deadly assassins, a sexy femme fatale, and even a poisonous tarantula. With the help of CIA agent Felix Leiter and the bikini-clad Honey Rider — who makes an unforgettable entrance — Bond searches for the headquarters of the fanatical Dr. No, a Chinese scientist bent on world domination. Made on a low budget, Dr. No was a big box office hit and laid the cornerstone for what would become the most successful film franchise in history.
'From Russia With Love' - 1963
Connery returned for this second installment to the series and toned down 007’s ruthlessness from Dr. No in favor of a suave and sophisticated demeanor. This time, Bond is tasked with reclaiming a decoder device stolen by the evil SPECTRE organization, which contains Russian state secrets and threatens to unbalance the world order. He travels to Istanbul, where he confronts the cunning assassin Red Grant (Robert Shaw) whose preferred method of killing is a garotte wire hidden inside his wristwatch, and the dour Rosa Klebb, who wears deadly poisoned-tipped shoes. From Russia with Love received a bigger budget, thanks to the success of Dr. No, and helped solidify Connery’s standing as the definitive Bond. The film ranks high in comparison to the other installments, with some considering it to be the best of the franchise.
'Goldfinger' - 1964
Undeniably the gold standard of Bond films, Goldfinger set forth the template for all other 007 pictures: theme song sung by a popular artist, a focus on high-tech gadgets – in this case an Aston Martin complete with ejector seat – and a maniacal arch-villain who spouts campy one-liners while devising Rube Goldberg-like methods of trying to kill Bond. That’s not to say any of this is bad; Goldfinger is a wildly entertaining movie that introduced a lethal hat-throwing henchman called Oddjob and the sultry villainess Pussy Galore. It was a clear departure from the first two films and set the stage for increasingly flashier productions, setting the precedent that each subsequent film had to surpass its predecessor.
'Thunderball' - 1965
Originally intended to be the first Bond film, Thunderball was embroiled in a legal battle involving Fleming’s former screenwriting collaborators Kevin McClory and Jack Wittingham, who settled out of court and received executive producer credits. Bond again takes on SPECTRE, which steals nuclear warheads, buries them deep in the ocean and demands a £100,000,000 ransom while threatening nuclear disaster. Jaunting to the Bahamas, Bond battles evil mastermind Emilio Largo while vying for the attention of three beauties: British agent Paula Caplan, Largo’s mistress Domino Derval and SPECTRE agent Fiona Volpe. A step down from Goldfinger, Thunderball nonetheless has been held in high regard by fans since its successful release.
'You Only Live Twice' - 1967
While on location in Japan, Connery publicly announced that he would be retiring from the role after five movies. In the film, Bond takes on the head of SPECTRE, Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Donald Pleasance), in an effort to prevent a world war after a mysterious rocketship seizes manned space missions from Earth’s orbit. For the first time, Blofeld’s face was revealed on screen – only his hands and back of his head were seen in From Russia with Love and Thunderball – while the movie continued the trend of shifting away from the real-world espionage of the earlier movies toward the campy world-domination plots that defined the Roger Moore era.
'Diamonds Are Forever' - 1971
After George Lazenby made his only appearance as Bond in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, Connery stepped back into the role for what would be his last appearance as 007 for over a decade. Lazenby declined a return to the series, which left producers Albert Broccoli and Harry Saltzman to search for another actor. In the end, they paid Connery an unprecedented $1.2 million to reclaim his role; this time, Bond disguises himself as a diamond smuggler to uncover a plot by old foe, Blofeld, to build a giant laser. Globetrotting through Las Vegas, Amsterdam, and Germany, and featuring the aptly named Plenty O’Toole, Diamonds Are Forever was a box office hit, but ranked as one of the campier Connery efforts, thanks to a rather silly chase involving a moon buggy through the Nevada desert.
'Never Say Never Again' - 1983
In 1971, Connery famously said that he would never play Bond again. Fast-forward 12 years and he agreed to return for one final performance. Never Say Never Again was the only Bond film not produced by Broccoli and Saltzman’s Eon Productions. Instead, it was written and produced by Kevin McClory, who managed to retain rights to Fleming’s novel, Thunderball, after a lengthy legal battle. Essentially a remake of Thunderball, the movie saw an aging Bond brought out of retirement to do battle with megalomaniacal millionaire Maximillian Largo, who steals several nuclear warheads in order to bring the world to its knees. The film opened mere months after Roger Moore’s Octopussy and set a record for the best opening for a Bond film. It also was a return to form for Connery after the silliness of Diamonds Are Forever, and allowed him to depart the character on a high note.
