James Bond at 60: Every EON 007 Film Ranked, From 'Dr. No' to 'No Time to Die'

On the 60th anniversary of the release of 'Dr. No,' the first James Bond film, The Manual has published a comprehensive ranking of all 25 EON Productions Bond movies. The list spans from the 1962 debut starring Sean Connery to the 2021 finale 'No Time to Die' featuring Daniel Craig. The ranking includes at least one hot take, according to the publication, likely to spark debate among 007 enthusiasts.

The ranking arrives as the Bond franchise celebrates six decades of cinematic history. EON Productions, the company behind the series, has produced 25 official films, grossing over $7 billion worldwide. The Manual's list evaluates each entry, from classics like 'Goldfinger' and 'Casino Royale' to divisive entries such as 'Quantum of Solace' and 'Spectre.' The publication did not reveal its top pick in the raw dispatch, but the inclusion of a controversial opinion suggests a surprising placement.

The ranking is likely to generate discussion among fans and critics, particularly regarding the placement of fan-favorite and lesser-regarded films. As the franchise looks to its future—with speculation about the next actor to portray Bond—retrospectives like this highlight the enduring cultural impact of the series. The Manual's full ranking is available on its website.
