Film: Loyalties In James Bond Film

James Bond is a fictional character that was created by Ian Fleming in about 1962. James is the most superficial, powerful, and adaptable fictional character. His ability to adapt and reinvent himself in multiple cinemas is why he is so suave, sophisticated and cool. Bond is a skilled spy whom often finds himself in tight spots with many villains, gadgets, and women. Bond franchise wasn’t just in the cinemas but they were on the business side as well in which he was such a pervasive character and influenced upcoming actors. Overall Bond is a universal successful character. However, this paper isn’t about how awesome or how James Bond is a triple threat.
