[A] rather A&E/TLC treatment of Lazenby's life.

A bizarre hybrid of documentary and feature...

Intimate, irreverent and at times laugh-out-loud funny ...

The result is as slick as it is hilarious, a perfect portrait of an aging ladies' man and irascible rebel agent.

A film about a guy who did life his own way, and it's an enjoyable ride.

There is a potentially interesting film-documentary or fiction-in Lazenby's life and career, but Becoming Bond, despite its ambitions, is not it.
