Movie Reaction: From Russia With Love (1963) GIRLFRIEND'S FIRST TIME WATCHING 

Yaaaas. My personal favourite Bond film. Not many fight scenes from the 60’s still stand up in 2021 as being utterly badass. Great video

This was perfect over a cup of coffee this morning....funny and thrilling, the two of you have great chemistry but lover her first reactions! What an amazing thing to see these with fresh eyes. And love the new format...makes me feel like I am in the third seat in the room! BRING ON GOLDFINGER!

The more I travel through eastern Europe, the more I enjoy this film.

Great video! I love this series because it’s so different. No other bond channel has done this before I don’t think. Seeing her reaction to some of the iconic scenes we’ve seen many times is just awesome. Keep up the great work Jeroen and Lyrith!

Having seen two videos now, I really enjoy this new series. What's great about it is that I can completely relate to the conversation. My wife and I had similar conversations as I showed her all of the films. Of course sharing my Bond knowledge at every opportunity. Looking forward to the next video.

The plot for this one is so good. Definitely one of the best. I'd rate 5 stars

My favorite bond movie besides goldeneye. I predict she’ll love it.

These videos are excellent Dutch Bond Fan. Really enjoy seeing the reaction by Lyrith watching a classic Bond film for the first time.

Unrelated to the video, I really liked that they kept the same font for every title sequence from Dr. No to Licence to Kill. Consistency is perfection.

That guy at 26:14 being Ian Fleming is pretty much a myth at this point. Calvin does a good job dispelling it in his video.

It’s one of the best Bonds. A great ally, maybe the best henchman of them all and a fantastically evil and creepy secondary villain in Rosa Klebb. And Daniela Bianchi is stunning! The Bond short story that introduces the back story of Red Grant is one of my favourites.

Her rating makes sense for a first time viewer. Definitely a grower of a story. And a strangulation rope is also called a “garrote”.

i vould love to have same girlfriend who is in to it like yours is, other big 007 fans should do so with their girlfriend, wife or boyfriend.

Probably my favorite Sean Connery Bond movie. I'm looking forward to this

it was also the last movie that JFK saw. He viewed it in the White House a couple of nights before Kennedy was assassinated.

These videos are so much fun to watch. But I got to ask, how long does it take between the time you and your girlfriend watch the movie to the time when this video is fully edited and ready to post on RU-vid?

GREAT REACTION and what a discovery for me, serendipitously, discovering your Channel because there are so many subtle things that ordinary viewers like me can miss like "Octopus" significance or the "Scotland Forever" Tattoo and I have paused after 12 minutes but will return to see the whole rection through your educated and knowledgeable lens,my friend...

Honestly I just love the end of these videos with the cool version of a view to a kill which is definitely one of the best bond theme songs ever

34:15: I always wondered how Bond was suddenly wearing a sailor's hat.

Just an Easter Egg from an elder 007 fan. The photo on the wall in the Russian Embassy is of Yuri Gagarin . And I envy your Bond Girl Girlfriend.

Bits of Monty Norman's DR. NO score were still used in this movie and GOLDFINGER. In this one, it's used during the helicopter scene and the fiery boat finale. In GOLDFINGER, it's briefly heard at the start of the scene where Bond is almost bisected by a laser beam. The Ian Fleming novel of FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE ends with Rosa Klebb stabbing Bond with her poison shoe blade and Bond slumping unconscious to the floor. So it has an open ending in which Bond may or may not be dead. I've read that before the movie came out, Lotte Lenya was such a beloved music hall performer that people thought she was miscast as such an evil villain as Klebb.

I think Connery had great chemistry and camaraderie with Pedro Armendariz. I think Robert Shaw was one of the best & most threatening Bond henchmen

Nice, my 2nd favorite Connery Bond film(after Goldfinger) and number 8 on my personal overall ranking.

Another great review

Confession Time: When I first watched From Russia With Love, I hated this film. I even ranked this as my worst 007 film of all time 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️😱 yes I know, I know. After some Bond fans from the James Bond 007 RU-vid page who either called me crazy or just asked me to give it another chance because if I did, my opinion will change. I did and since then I give FRWL a 7.5 out of 10. Lyrith, after you watch all 25 James Bond films rewatch From Russia With Love because you will enjoy it alot more on the second time around.

24:11 - Spectre was watching the whole time and ready to board any train on short notice.

Until Casino Royale came along, this was always my favourite Bond film. Truly believable in it's capturing of the Cold War espionage genre. Connery was certainly at his finiest in his first 3 films. Lyrith's reactions are great. Well done guys!

I think most people missed or didn’t pay attention to the opening dialogue between Klebb and Bloefeld/ Spectre #3 and #1. Only people who have the highest clearance know of her defection.

Spectre always delivers what it promises hehehehe

24:48 made me laugh so hard haha.

32:50 This helicopter sequence always confused me. The pilot is flying it like an airplane. It's a friggin' helicopter! It has the ability to hover over one spot, making their job of dropping grenades or shooting much easier. Having said that, I still love this classic Bond film.

I like the thubnail

From Russia with love really like better than Dr No

I’m looking forward to how this series progresses, ps how are you doing today

I forget if I read the book or saw the movie first. The book is more straight-forward, the movie more complicated, because of the added business of SPECTRE manipulating the Russians, and wanting to steal the decoder to sell it back to them. Ever since I saw this on a big screen in 1980, it's been my FAVORITE Connery Bond film by a wide margin... and my 2nd-favorite Bond film out of the whole series (after "ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE"). I've still got "fullscreen" copies on videotape; I hope eventually to get widescreen copies on DVD. It was nly a few years ago it occured to me that the perfect actor to have played Blofeld back then would have been George Sanders. It baffles me that I never heard any mention of anyone ever even suggesting him for the part. It wold have been a real capstone of his entire career.

Well done, guys! Yet, the story is not complex. Actually, due to the intricacy of the story, and that brilliant fight scene on the train, I consider FRWL the single best film of the Bond lot. Now, I know CR and GF get raves, yet FRWL is raw and absent of CGI. Moreover, in GF, Bond forces himself upon PG to save the world? No! I liked GF, but it cannot hold a candle to FRWL Lastly, DBF, I greatly enjoy your content. Stay brilliant!

I'm rewatching and again I say, how jealous I am of having such a sublime Bondgirlfriend, beautiful, sexy, and delightfully reacting to my favorite 007 adventure. I saw it in the theater long ago. I wish I had her beside me then. Just a reminder, the photo on the wall at the Russian Embassy when 007 checks the time is Yuri Gagarin.

Your girlfriend should audition for a role of a Bond girl

Oh, you’re back.

Did your girlfriend and you like Tatiana Romanova or Honey Rider more?

Strange that they put "Ernst Blofeld" on the end credits when no one referred to him as such. Only as "No. 1". In the book, "Thunderball", Blofeld is actually No. 2 while Largo was No. 1.

Bond 5/5, girls 3/5 i like the other girls better than daniela, but she is better in the other euro spy flicks, vilians 5/5, story; 3/5, so is the 3rd offical best connery movie

Is this guy irl gigachad? The resemblance is uncanny

My fave Bond film :) Now watch Wrath of Khan :) Thank me later :)

Q Branch - Quartermaster - supplies

Are you watching every Bond movie together?

"John F. Kennedy? Who's John F. Kennedy?" :-)

Bond was a phenomenon borne of the shame and desperation occasioned by Burgess, Maclean and Philby who were followed later into British infamy by Blunt and Cairncross. Fleming created a fictional hero to make up for the traitors who had ruined the reputation of the British clandestine services. It's a pity Bond wasn't real, but as it turned out much later, neither was Soviet invincibility.

Is this the Dutch version of Matt Damon?

Number 1 question for a potential partner Are you a James Bond fan? If its a no then its to the piranhas with you 😜🐟🐟🐟❤

Dude. Have you seen the trailer for No Time To Die? It’s apparently the conclusion to the Craig series of Bond flicks and it’s coming out in October. It looks incredible.

You need to watch Neil Connery's film. It's online and includes the lead actress from this film. Apparently Neil fell out with Sean over it.

I'd be Rushin' to give your GF some Love, DBF.. She's sweet!

You shouldn't be explaining the movie. Let her discover it.

Do you have AKA Dutch Bond Fan on your passport better than an invisible car just think you had an invisible briefcase you would not be able to find it you can tell Sean was a lot more relaxed in this film compared to Dr No less serious 🧐 the future mrs Dutch Bond Fan is very observant noticing killing the bad guys with there own weapons how did they find bond on the train and on the boat
