Bond On Bond: Reflections on 50 years of James Bond Movies [Hardcover] Reviews

"Bond on Bond" provides an informative overview of the 007 filmography - but what makes the book stand out is the fact it is written through the witty and self-effacing lens of Bond No.3, Sir Roger Moore. The book is split into sections (Women, Gadgets, Style, Vehicles, Locations, etc.) and is gorgeously illustrated. Sure, it's a cliché to say it, but this book actually does make a great coffee table book. Glossy, fun, and informative. There were many photos I was unfamiliar with, but as I'm not a completist on such matters, I'm not certain if some are "never before seen". It was a pleasure to see references and images to the unofficial "Never Say Never Again" threaded throughout. After all, along with 1967's spoof, "Casino Royale"," Never" has an important place in the Bond lexicon. It was also interesting to read Moore's views on the controversial casting of Daniel Craig. Moore played Bond with a twinkle in his eye, but he was also effectively dramatic, where necessary. These qualities reflect the tone of this book. There are many amusing anecdotes (and some straight-faced one's as well) - and you can just about hear Moore's voice as you read them. Last but not least, Moore provides witty captions to a large majority of the photographs. These captions were an unexpected pleasure of the book for me. The caption that accompanies a beefcake image of Daniel Craig is particularly droll.. this is my Bond On Bond: Reflections on 50 years of James Bond Movies [Hardcover] reviews

• The Bond movies remain the longest continually running film series in movie history, and  2012 marks its fiftieth anniversary. To celebrate these films and their cultural heritage, Roger Moore has written a book that features all the Bond movies, along with a wonderfully witty account of his own involvement in them. From the girls to the villains, the cocktails to the cars, and gadgets to the locations and everything else, this beautiful book is illustrated with hundreds of iconic images from all the films plus many previously unseen photos from Moore's personal collection. This is the ultimate James Bond book, written by the ultimate insider, with all the affection and good humor we've come to expect from Roger Moore.
