Here's where it all started. In 1962, the world was introduced to suave, charming British superspy James Bond in "Dr No", and the world of action movies would never be the same again. Sean Connery breathes cool, sexy life into Ian Fleming's playboy character, a role he was to play for six more movies after this one.
"Dr No" establishes the formula. We meet not just Bond, but his superior M (Bernard Lee), while Major Boothroyd, later to become Q, is here incarnated as Peter Burton. We also see the exotic locations, beautiful girls and death-defying stunts that were to become synonymous with Bond, as Connery travels to the Caribbean and gets caught up with fights, boat chases, deadly tarantulas and even a killer robot that patrols a forbidden island. Helping out is CIA chum Felix Leiter, here played by "Hawaii 5-0"'s Jack Lord.
For the first time, Bond faces a powerful madman with ambitions to hold the world to ransom. Dr No (Joseph Wiseman) is a colourful villain with his artificial hands and undersea nuclear reactor. Meanwhile, the statuesque Ursula Andress is the first Bond girl, emerging unforgettably from the sea in THAT bikini.
This new Ultimate Edition is a packed 2 disc set with a totally remastered picture and DTS 5.1 sound, plus an astonishing array of extras that include the features from the previous releases plus a slew of new material. An absolute essential for the Bond fan, with more bells and whistles than one of Q's Aston Martins.
