Ditching flash in favour of character development, this stylish and energetic entry is one of the best films in the series. Lazenby woz robbed.

Reviews for On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Top CriticCertainly no worse than the later Roger Moore efforts and, if only for curiosity value, is well worth a look.
10/13/08
Top CriticThe Bond films were bad enough even with the partially ironic performances of Connery.
06/24/06
Top CriticBy no means the premium Bond, but an intriguing one.
07/25/01
Top CriticJust as entertaining and as visually attractive as the five previous Bond films.
02/22/09
Film of break-neck physical excitement and stunning visual attractions in which George Lazenby replaced Sean Connery as James Bond.
10/13/08
Top CriticDirector Peter Hunt manages to inject some life into this 1969 exercise with a wonderful ski chase, but otherwise the film is a bore.
10/13/08
One of the more entertaining Bond films.
10/13/08
Top CriticLazenby is very weak, but the movie is rather good
02/07/08
Lazenby isn't all that bad, really. Top Bond production overall helps.
07/13/07
Mémorable pour ses excès beaucoup plus que sa pertinence scénaristique

George Lazenby took Bond's reins from Sean Connery in this sixth 007 outing, an unfairly oft-maligned film that, while distinctively different than the rest of the series, is still quite fun to watch.
01/11/07
It's ironic that this, perhaps the weakest Bond film, contains the character's most important piece of development.

What are Bond's problems now? They're too numerous, as usual, to hold the constant attention of anyone other than a charter member of Her Majesty's Secret Service.
05/09/05
Top CriticThe film is often unjustly treated as an odd footnote to the series, an awkward moment from the series' puberty that the producers would just as soon forget.
