Netflix's collection of James Bond movies is set to leave this month. This means both newcomers and die-hard fans have only a few weeks to enjoy classics.
Films like “Dr. No” and “Thunderball,” as well as modern hits like “No Time to Die,” will be gone from the platform. With that in mind, here are seven essential James Bond movies to watch before April 20.
- “From Russia With Love”
- “Goldfinger”
- “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”
- “The Spy Who Loved Me”
- “GoldenEye”
“From Russia With Love” (1963) is the second film starring Sean Connery. It is based on Ian Fleming's novel and follows Bond as he assists in the defection of a Soviet clerk.
“Goldfinger” (1964) is the most iconic Bond film. Connery investigates corruption in the gold industry and faces numerous dangers.
“On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” (1969) is the most underrated film featuring George Lazenby. It explores the emotional depth of Bond's relationship with Countess Tracy.
“The Spy Who Loved Me” (1977) features Roger Moore teaming up with a Soviet agent to stop a megalomaniac planning to destroy the world.
“GoldenEye” (1995) is the best film starring Pierce Brosnan. It brings Bond back to his roots and includes many memorable characters.
“Casino Royale” (2006) is the film that changed the perception of Bond. Daniel Craig proved he could deliver more than audiences expected.
