In another, Bond scale an almost vertical mountain, in order to get to villain's lair. This is probably one of the most memorable scenes in this film. In fact, Bond mentions that policy in this film, in one of the final scenes, addressing the Russian General Gogol. As seen in 'The Spy Who Loved Me', the threat of open war between Russians and Americans was already a situation that both powers sought to avoid, in so-called policy of 'détente'.

In conclusion, not great but solid enough.

John Glover is suitably subdued, while there is a colourful turn from Topol and it was a surprise to see Chales Dance as a killer. Roger Moore shows more grit than usual while Carole Bouquet is very classy as Melina. The direction and parts of the script are solid too and the pacing is fairly brisk, while I had little to criticise the acting. Also some of the humour came across as rather goofy and misjudged while Bill Conti's score is rather disappointing in the forgettable sense.(the theme song was pretty good though) PROS: The set pieces are truly spectacular, even if the gadgetry and stuff is toned down here, while the cinematography and scenery are excellent. CONS: There is nothing new really in the plot, there is little really of surprises. Warning: Spoilers This is not the best of the Roger Moore Bonds(The Spy Who Loved Me) but it isn't the worst(a tie between **** and A View to a Kill) either- it is a film with its pros and cons and as an entry in the Bond franchise it is actually pretty solid.ĬONS: There is nothing new Warning: Spoilers This is not the best of the Roger Moore Bonds(The Spy Who Loved Me) but it isn't the worst(a tie between **** and A View to a Kill) either- it is a film with its pros and cons and as an entry in the Bond franchise it is actually pretty solid.
