From Russia with Love Ratings & Reviews
- Temlakos7 maart 2026This second movie in the Bind franchise sets the tone for every film that follows.
- thomasrogers75327 januari 2026I just kinda liked this one better than the first, maybe it’s because the female lead actually has a semi-meaningful plot this time, idk
- Zokkiie13 oktober 2025A sharp and stylish Bond film that delivers classic spy thrills. Connery is at his best, the story feels grounded, and the train fight is unforgettable. Smooth, tense, and full of charm — one of the series’ highlights.
- stream71519 januari 2026Classic James Bond.
- Andy Davidson | folknhell.com15 januari 2026Peak Bond: deadpan quips, lethal gadgets, and the confidence to fight an assassin on a train like it’s just another commute.
- The Patrick11 juli 2025This is to me a continuation of Dr.No, with again some womanizing which was obviously common for the time. I enjoyed it better than Dr.No but it was also lacking in acting and action. Weak storyline. Still, this was a good watch and I couldn't wait to watch Goldfinger next which is where to me the real Bond starts.
- MetroidTalon14 september 2025Tighter, colder, and more grounded than its predecessor, From Russia with Love cements Bond as a serious player in the spy genre. Connery is sharper, the villains are nastier, and the espionage actually feels like a game of chess. The pacing is deliberate, but the payoff is worth it. Train fights, secret briefcases, and Cold War tension all give the film a sense of weight the series rarely revisits. A confident, calculated sequel that raises the bar without losing the cool.
- Dirk Sabbe10 januari 2026Quite enjoyable.
- John P2 januari 2026It is good, its proper getting into the Bond formula.
- mickerdoo31 juli 2025Classic Bond antics. Wild that this was made in '63. Enjoy Connery as Bond. Action sequences are a little outdated and rigid.
- LivewireAdmin6 december 2025From Russia With Love is where the Bond series slips into a sharper suit—sleeker, colder, and noticeably more confident. Building on the momentum of Dr. No, this second adventure leans deeper into Cold War intrigue, trading tropical lairs for shadowy backrooms, coded messages, and the kind of slow-burn espionage that defined the era. The film expands Bond’s world in a meaningful way, introducing a more intricate sense of spycraft and giving the mythology of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. its first major pulse. Sean Connery, now fully settling into the role, moves with the smooth authority of a character stepping into iconic territory, and the supporting cast—especially Daniela Bianchi and a chillingly silent Robert Shaw—helps shape the film into a darker, more refined entry in the franchise. What resonated most with me is just how spy thriller this one feels. Compared to the more pulpy tone of Dr. No, this film plays its espionage hand straight, and it works. The cat-and-mouse plotting, the double-crosses, the tense train sequence—it all feels more grounded and more compelling. Connery, in particular, feels noticeably more confident and comfortable; it’s like he’s finally found Bond’s true cadence. Which actually allows him to sprinkle in some comedic moments which are all played perfectly. The S.P.E.C.T.R.E. world-building is another major highlight. Every glimpse into the organization adds weight and menace, and you can feel the franchise planting the seeds for something larger. Bianchi has great chemistry with Connery, bringing warmth and sincerity to the role, and Robert Shaw makes for a terrific villain—quiet, calculating, and physically Bond's equal. It doesn’t break into my absolute favorites, but it’s a stylish, tightly paced, and engaging second installment—one that feels essential to understanding how Bond began. Still one of Connery's highs 62 years later.
- Bryan Masters1 december 2025I usually love James Bond movies... but I fell asleep for the majority of thie one. It did not age well, the pacing is very slow, and the story is not intriguing.
- Mister Arn20 mei 2025The film starts many Bond traditions, including an amusing villain.
- ርልዪረ28 januari 2025🤵🏻♂️Sean Connery as the original James Bond. What more is there to say.🤵🏻♂️
- sopula29 mei 2025Was pretty entertaining and funny to watch, the womanising is really front and central to the plot in this one unlike Dr No where it’s more-so just there for bond character building. Overall ridiculous movie though, the theme song plays like 200 times throughout the movie
