Story

James Bond wordt op het spoor gezet van de mysterieuze Chinees Dr. No. De Britse geheime dienst verdenkt Dr. No ervan dat hij vanaf zijn geheime schuilplaats de raketlanceringen op Cape Canaveral wil saboteren. Tijdens zijn opsporingswerk, ondekt Bond dat Dr. No er enkel op uit is om de wereldheerschappij te veroveren. Sean Connery als James Bond en Ursula Andress als Honey Ryder geven dit eerste 007 avontuur het later zo kenmerkend geworden Bond-mengsel van actie, sexappeal en humor.
