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

Reviews for On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Lazenby makes the mistake of trying to imitate Connery rather than giving his own interpretation to the role, and as we all know, imitations just make us yearn for the genuine article.
01/01/00
One of the more entertaining Bond films.
10/13/08
Certainly no worse than the later Roger Moore efforts and, if only for curiosity value, is well worth a look.
10/13/08
Ditching flash in favour of character development, this stylish and energetic entry is one of the best films in the series. Lazenby woz robbed.

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.

One of the best Bonds, usually underrated because of Lazenby's performance and constant comparison to Sean Connery. But it has withstood the test of time.
11/14/02
It offers supremely satisfying versions of all the conventions we expect from the series ... and then it does the one thing you don't expect a James Bond movie to do: It breaks your heart.
01/01/00
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.

Driven by a series of invigorating and breathtaking action sequences and anchored by a Bond of rare emotional depth.

...Lazenby is actually pretty good as Bond.
08/01/03
By no means the premium Bond, but an intriguing one.
07/25/01
Just as entertaining and as visually attractive as the five previous Bond films.
02/22/09
Director Peter Hunt manages to inject some life into this 1969 exercise with a wonderful ski chase, but otherwise the film is a bore.
