The 3 disc blu ray set of James Bond dvd's I recently purchased has been fun to watch. Definitely a blast from the past. It's amazing how much more impressive these movies were when I was a kid. Now they seem pretty laughable, but they're still fun to watch. The set I got included Dr. No, Live and Let Die and Die Another Day.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Wow, I just finished watching Dr No on Blu-Ray and it's incredible. They took the time to restore the film and it really paid off. No dirt, scratches, hair, or tears. Colors are great and very consistent. Not a big fan of Live and Let Die but the movie looked good as well. Haven't watched Die Another Day yet but assume it can only be better than the DVD which was great. Glad I bought this set, hopefully I can find the rest at similar savings. The important thing to know is the Blu-Ray's are worth it for James Bond fans. The special features showed them improving all the old Bond flicks just for Blu-Ray.
I have been a big devotee to Bond since I first watched Diamonds are Forever when it came out in 1971. The Blu Ray's detail coupled with the vivid colors from a big screen LCD revitalizes the old mono-sound & standard resolution Dr. No and Live and Let Die versions. These two from 1961 and 1974 have been showing their age but the Blu Ray conversion transforms them to now. The greater picture makes these Blu Rays worth the additional costs. I now look forward to selling off my old standard DVD Bond collection to upgrade to Blu-ray.
I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my mom and she loved it. I sat down and watch Sean Connery in Dr. No with her and I couldn't believe the clarity! It sure beats watching an old fuzzy versions on VHS and DVD. The blu-ray really makes Bond come to life and with three great Bond movies in Volume 1, Dr. No, Live and Let Die and Die Another Day, it's a great set to own for any Bond fan! I would highly recommend it!
What more could you ask for, Bond...James Bond. Here you get Sean Connery in his inaugural outing, DR. NO (1962). Also included here is LIVE AND LET DIE (1973), the first 007 adventure in which Roger Moore takes over as an adequate shoe-filler, as well as Pierce Brosnan's final appearance in DIE ANOTHER DAY (2002) If your a Bond fan, you might as well get them on Blu-ray and seem him at his very best.
