I got them back in Russia as I was about to leave - I wanted to read the "real" spy story based on what I knew about them... to say I was disappointed would be an understatement... I kept thinking - this could not possibly be what the world is talking about! And when I saw a Bond movie for the first time my reaction was of the "You are kidding... right?" kind.Who knows... maybe if I saw my first one at the tender age of 12 when it came out - perhaps my reaction would have been different (Heck, I enjoyed the Fantomas!) but to be exposed to such "marvels" at mature age simply did not cut it.
