On Her Majesty's Secret Services


(PG)

George Lazenby made his first and only appearance as James Bond, in this, the unheralded gem of the franchise. With an incredibly affecting denouement and one of John Barry's finest scores, OHMSS would show a different side to Bond and open up the character to different approaches in the future.

Agent 007 (George Lazenby) and the adventurous Tracy Di Vicenzo (Diana Rigg) join forces to battle the evil Spectre organization in the treacherous Swiss Alps. But the group's powerful leader, Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Telly Savalas) is launching his most calamitous scheme yet: a germ warfare plot that could kill millions!

George Lazenby is the worst Bond I've ever seen, even thought I'm not a big Bond fan. Of course nobody will top the great Sean Connery but there have been other ok bond actors (Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan) and Lazenby doesn't pull it off. The movie itself is boring and very poor.
