Dr No
The first and establishing Bond film, with everything a little understated from later Bond days (owing as it does more to Ian Fleming's original novelisations than the chicks, guns and action franchise it would grow into).
But it introduces (and skillfully as ever portrays) the trademark Bond concept of a fiendish despotic villain with plans of world domination surrounded by exotic locations and beautiful women.
