I have been a Bond fan since the early 80's as a young teen, and had seen every movie. But incredibly, I had not seen OHMSS until today.
First of all, the OHMSS theme is by far the best Bond theme of them all. I loved the background music to the infamous ski scene in The Spy Who Loved Me (Bond '77) but that wasn't the theme music.
George Lazenby put in an acceptable performance. It's hard to believe he was only 29, he looks much older. There was something lacking in his performance though, I just couldn't quite put my finger on it.
The middle of the film is a little slow (the whole Sir Hilary thing), but it picks up momentum eventually.
I thought OHMSS was a decent Bond film overall. Not the finest, but definitely not the worst....that one would surely go to Moonraker. I'd watch it again just for the opening sequence and the theme song.
