Leave your thoughts about On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
| Lyles' Movie FilesJeffrey LylesEssential Bond viewing. It should definitely be among the five Bond films to make someone a fan of the series. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzJust as entertaining and as visually attractive as the five previous Bond films. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliThe film contains some of the most exhilarating action sequences ever to reach the screen, a touching love story, and a nice subplot that has agent 007 crossing (and even threatening to resign from) Her Majesty's Secret Service. The problem is with Bond himself. Following Sean Connery's departure after You Only Live Twice, the film makers had to come up with a replacement. The man they chose, a model named George Lazenby, is boring, and his ineffectualness lowers the picture's quality. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyArtistically, Bond's sixth entry, the only one to star Aussie George Lazenby, is much better than given credit to, though commercially it was one of the weakest. |
| The TelegraphMarc LeeHunt, who served as editor on the first three Connery films, gives Lazenby’s fist fights a whipcrack intensity and the ski-jumping, stock car-racing, bobsled-sliding finale is one of the series’ best. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonEven hobbled as he is by a character he doesn't entirely get, and Peter Hunt's antagonistic direction, and the film's annoying tendency to remind us of Connery... George azenby puts up a good fight. |
| EmpireWilliam ThomasThis is the Bond flick blessed with the best plot, a genuine sense of emotion and a spirit closest to Ian Fleming’s novels. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. PuccioIf you can look past Lazenby in the title role, the story line, action, and supporting cast are well above average. |
| Salon.comCharles TaylorOn Her Majesty’s Secret Service is the only Bond film that gets beyond the dirty boy’s-book spirit of the series to a core of real emotion. It also has what are probably the best action sequences of any 007 adventure. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeBest of the Bonds, thanks in no small part to Diana Rigg. |
