I only read your conclusion for now (I'll read the whole thing later) but damn 1/5 that's rough my good man. I think it was at least a 2.5/5 maybe pushing 3/5. Was better than Dr. No, I'll say that with confidence.

Better than Dr.  No?  Come on man...  Dr. No introduces us to James Bond, the awesome theme song, M, Moneypenny, Felix Leiter, and might have the best theme song in any movie ever.

Besides for that; the story is well written, the acting is fantastic, we have one of the best Bond girls ever, Quarrel is a great side character, and the villain is one of the best in entire series.  I can't think of one thing that Die Another Day does better than Dr. No.  The only thing that Die Another Day has that Dr. No doesn't is more deaths and gadgets. 

Also, Dr.  No has charm, class, sophistication, is gritty at times, displays real humor, and personality.  Die Another Day just feels like a trashy comic book in comparison.  If you don't believe me, take a look at what Signalstar said.  He was much more harsh than me and gave this movie a -2 out of 5.  He's also a "real writer" unlike me.   

Hahaha you just answered your own question! But no I'm just messing with you. Obviously Dr. No has the better acting, story, etc. I just like action and Dr. No had none of it. I can't do movies that are all about the acting/story but have no action (hence why I hate Godfather and Scarface).
