From Russia with Love



From Russia with Love, 1963. SPECTRE sets a trap for James Bond.

Directed by Terence Young. Written by Richard Maibaum; adapted by Johanna Harwood from a book by Ian Fleming. Starring Sean Connery.

Concept: 3/4 (Good)
Story: 3/4 (Good)
Characters: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Dialog: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Pacing: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Cinematography: 3/4 (Good)
Special effects/design: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Acting: 3/4 (Good)
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). It's not fun enough. The action scenes are bad and go on too long. It doesn't have the great sense of style that Dr. No has. On the other hand, it also doesn't have any of the story problems that Dr. No has.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.4/4 (Okay)
