The kaleidoscopic look and frenetic editing are this film's two distinguishing trademarks, a fact that somewhat betrays director Hunt's greater attention towards the technical aspects of it than Lazenby's performance. Don't get me wrong, Lazenby is more than credible, but he is utterly diminished by the film's grand scope. After 40 minutes of relaxed and confident introduction, OHMSS reaches top gear with four overblown climaxes that generate more energy and punch than all Bond movies put together. For this reason and not only, the film is emblematic in the series and a real treat to enjoy over and over again. Top Bond entertainment.
