This was the movie that perfected the template for what we consider a proper Bond film: tricked-out sports cars and spy gadgets, eccentric supervillains and quirky sidekicks (the hat-throwing Oddjob), a name-dropping opening song and a fun, flirty, tongue-in-cheek version of Fleming’s hero.

The Bond series already had two films under its belt by the time 007 matched wits with Gert Fröbe’s precious-metal obsessive, but the third time was the charm. The killer moment: A parkour chase on a construction crane showed Craig's Bond to be a no-nonsense physical presence. Their relationship offers more than the usual brief moment of eye candy.

We have no problem ranking it this high.- DC Punchy, serious-faced and infused with tragic romance, this winner became an immediate Bond classic. GoldenEye director Martin Campbell returns behind the camera, and the script takes the character right back to the beginning-when Bond first earns his 007 licence-by drawing on Ian Fleming's 1953 novel of the same name. Step up, Daniel Craig, previously best known for films like Layer Cake and Munich. The Bond franchise was in need of a shot in the arm after the retirement of Pierce Brosnan and an over-reliance on wonky effects and bad gags.
