There's no one like James Bond, no matter who he's played by. But the actor most associated with the role, Sean Connery, is arguably the most iconic. The official 007 account announced on Oct. 31 that the beloved actor had died at 90. And as the first actor to play James Bond on the big screen, he'll always be the character to so many. Of course, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan, Daniel Craig, Timothy Dalton, George Lazenby, and David Niven have also stepped into the impeccable shoes of the iconic super-spy over the years. But while Bond may always be Bond, and his drink of choice consistent, the quality of the film adaptations of Ian Fleming's novels has varied wildly over the years, since 007 made his cinematic debut in Dr. No. That's why we're ranking every James Bond movie, according to the critics. We're seeing how all the Bond movies—24 Eon Productions films, and two non-Eon Productions—measure up when it comes to their Rotten Tomatoes percentages, which are calculated based on the number of positive reviews. From the classic to the absurd to the gritty and grounded, here's every James Bond movie so far, from the worst reviewed to the best. And for more critical perspective, this was The Best Movie That Came Out the Year You Graduated, According to Critics.
