Lazenby is very weak, but the movie is rather good

Lazenby isn't all that bad, really. Top Bond production overall helps.

Mémorable pour ses excès beaucoup plus que sa pertinence scénaristique

It's ironic that this, perhaps the weakest Bond film, contains the character's most important piece of development.

The 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.

Rigg adds the class to feature that Connery usually did. When she's gone, the action scenes are as fine as any Bond's.

Best of the Bonds, thanks in no small part to Diana Rigg.
