Connery is back for his second outing as the famous British superspy.
From Russia With Love is an improvement on the previous one, Dr. No. The acting is a lot better and Connery is clearly growing in his role as Bond. The script and dialogue has also improved.
Still, just like Dr. No, the movie does feel a bit long and there are scenes where not much is happening. Bond is still not picking up the pace.
The first appearance of Blofeld is handled quite well and mysteriously. The handling of the character went wrong later on in other Bond movies.
All in all an improvement on the previous one, but still not one of the best Bond movies.
