Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

waltech-1 Well worth a look, perhaps best described as a slapstick documentary of GL's life. I am around the same age as George and remember the Bond films and On Her Majesty's Secret Service was the only one I ever liked enough to watch again. I was always curious as to whether the stories of the making of that film were true as there was a lot of talk about it at the time. The "Australian" settings bear no resemblance at all to the Australia of the time, and it was a bit bizarre to see it dressed it as some sort of Antipodean California. I liked the intentionally corny acting as it fitted well with the overall tone of the film, and the cinematography was excellent. Jason Maybaum playing the young Lazenby was perfect. Very enjoyable and a lot of fun to watch a charming man continuing the tradition of the Great Australian Yarn.

v-77410 Personally I think it's "documentary" with some funny scripts to make it lively. I'll give it 10 cause it's really refreshing and with bright side of energy. I guess what George tried to convey is a concept to live a life you want. While he was bond, he would not be like Sean Connery, he made his bond. What if he had next 6 bond movies? Do the money and fame he make worth the sacrifice he made in his life? Actually George kinda regreted letting go of bond, which is never expected,causing the end of his acting career. But because of this he found out his origin and spent a life he longed for(achievements in other field). Therefore, I respect this dude.

mmunier Becoming...an Australian sometimes ago, I had seen G L and his Bond movie so was curious about "Becoming Bond" when it came on our little screen last night. In some ways it made me think about Santa Claus, Adult, and Adult..hood. And all the lies we tell young people about life and values. As for G L he had no problems with these lies as he showed us what he already knew about life at age 6. I'm almost ashamed to admit that I enjoyed this simple story of a rather complicated nature. But let's not be confused, G L had more than one strings to his bow! If you care about it the WWW will enlighten you on his achievements. He may not have formally act previous to his film but he was more than streetwise! Back to the show, like many have reported I found it disappointing that they could not find someone a little more alike him to re enact parts of his life. Well, (I guess I would also have had him a little more like "the guy" I remembered). But it really did not feel comfortable to associate the two. It was not really a big deal, as the whole thing was not that sophisticated and was rather raw. I also found lot of other claims about his past...So be it, or not be it and it won't stop the earth spinning. However, give and take, I don't regret the watching.

pedrocsoares I had never heard of George Lazenby before, and this was a documentary I wanted to see because it sounded like a fun, entertaining, weird story. Do not go into this movie expecting a typical documentary with many friends of the subject being interviewed and all those things we typically see in movies of the kind. This documentary is mostly a narration, by Lazenby himself, about his entire life and how he got to be James Bond. The narration is accompanied by actors playing the stories he is narrating, since his childhood until adulthood. However, the acting in these parts was beyond awful, annoying, and way too over the top. As for the visuals, which I consider very relevant in documentaries, they leave a lot to be desired. Mr. Lazenby was the only thing in this movie I found interesting. His narration is quite entertaining, him being a humorous, friendly person. I also felt the documentary was a bit too one sided (we only have one version of the story, there is, as I mentioned, a lack of people being interviewed, which often brings depth to the subjects being analyzed). By the end of the film, I was just extremely underwhelmed. The movie failed my expectations on every level, with its only good aspect being the charming personality of David Lazenby.I feel like you would be spending your time better if you read the Wikipedia article.
