Not a good start for the 80s


- Worst title song
- Worst opening animations
- Worst Bond Girls (Havelock, the Countess and Bibi)
- Worst villain (Kristatos)
- No gadgets from Q


This movie and OHMSS are down there at the bottom of the Bond franchise

Nah. This is a terrific film. Just give it time and it grows on you. I bought the DVD years ago, but could barely remember it. I've really come to love it during my occasional Bond marathons. Same with a lot of the other Bond films, especially Moore's.

i know, it's so friggin boring, and as if wasn't boring enough it goes in the water again like the well known overlong underwater sequences in "thunderball"... the opening sequence where bond drops blofeld in a smokestack is cool though. apparently i'm not alone disliking this, there are a lot of negative topics on this board, well of course critics like it and thought it was back to basics after silly movies, sometimes i wonder if they really mean it or just talking bull, there are actually only two, well three if you count "never say never again" 1980s bond flicks i like, "octopussy" and "a view to a kill", and those are the last bonds to me, the recent bond actors are just macho boys trying to look tough and all the trademarks of bond is gone, already in the 1980s bond movies began looking more like regular action flicks. this i think shows moore was the best at as a dramatic bond as well as humour, here's the order in which i rate moore's flicks, beginning with favorite, i might change my mind later, but something like this: 1. a view to a kill. 2. the man with the golden gun. 3. live and let die. 4. moonraker. 5. the spy who loved me. 6. octopussy. 7. for your eyes only. i bet you the critics have it the other way around, hehe. "a nose. not a banana, q.", "whoops."

of the fancy place were in the attic,
fair sunshine youre spreading,
storage sharing you n i in history,
as you dusted antique off,
alive like once before,
where we sat,
turn your fact to fiction and back again.
