Dr. No (1962)

Dr. No (1962) is the film that started the legend of Hollywood’s most popular character, James Bond. In this spy thriller, British agent John Strangeways and his secretary vanish in beautiful Jamaica, setting Bond (Sean Connery) into action to investigate the duo’s disappearance. 007 teams up with loyal CIA agent Felix Leiter (Jack Lord) and learns that Strangeways was investigating an island owned by the mysterious Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman). Eventually, the agents learn that the devious doctor is disrupting rockets launched by NASA, leading Bond to pay the island dwelling, rocket interrupting bad guy a visit that ends with an intense battle. There’s no nudity in this classic film, but there are multiple scenes of the tall, toned, and tanned Sean strolling around Jamaica. No matter which actor is portraying the timeless spy, a bare-chested Bond is always worth investigating.
