	Author	Review
United States	Variety	"Sean Connery plays 007 with his usual finesse. Rest of cast in the $9.5 million film is strictly secondary"	NEU
United States	Bosley Crowther The New York Times	"A bag of good Bond fun (...) shamelessly excessive"	POS
United Kingdom	Ian Nathan Empire	"[It] is the 'ne plus ultra' of the series. The one that fully embodies all the flamboyance of cinema’s greatest character, and all the scope and brio of his adventures (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Phelim O'Neill The Guardian	"It's a lot of fun and almost does itself an injury in trying to entertain (...) [It] has moments of greatness"	POS
United Kingdom	Andrew Collins Radio Times	"This is one of the best of the Sean Connery Bond films (...) It also has one of the all-time great screen villains (...) Lewis Gilbert keeps the pace up (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
