United States	Variety	"Diamonds Are Forever doesn't carry the same quality or flair as its many predecessors"	NEU
United States	Dave Kehr Chicago Reader	"Assorted ladies, a few quick lines, and one good chase, making for a mediocre entry in the series"	NEU
United Kingdom	Xan Brooks The Guardian	"It's vicious, mordant, at times blackly comic. It's oddly brilliant, the best of the bunch"	POS
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"'Diamonds Are Forever' is great at doing the things we see a James Bond movie for (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United Kingdom	Ian Nathan Empire	"It feels distant, an echo of the elegance and restraint of 'Goldfinger' (...) Connery has a ball with great stunts, snappy dialogue and a bevy of typically Bondish beauties (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
