George Lazenby's Bond is different to Connery's but then along came Roger Moore, would have been interesting to have seen Lazenby in the Moore movies.
I tended to stay away from this movie, and I will admit, this week was the first time I had watched it through, did I enjoy it, yes. Is it the best Bond movie ever, the jury is out on that verdict.
OHMSS in my opinion was better than Thunderball, but not as good as Goldfinger or Dr No. It was a more personal movie for Bond, and although at time a bit cheesy. What I noticed was the way Lazenby did fist to fist fighting with the bad guys, it seemed at lot more realistic than Connery, the stunts were up from previous films, it's the romantic link between Bond and Tracy that made me cringe a couple of times. I will read the book and see how close the movie follows, also think I will need to watch it again to fully appreciate this Bond classic.
