5. Dr. No (1962) Dr. No was the one film James Bond author Ian Fleming hated above all. After his first viewing he described the film as "Dreadful. Simply dreadful." The film originates around mysterious radio singles around Cape Canaveral. During the year of the film's release, a memorandum was filed at the pentagon, reporting heavy mysterious radio singles from Cuba being detected at Cape Canaveral. The report mentions that if Astronaut John Glenn's orbit of Earth were to fail, the American government could blame it on Cuban sabotage.
