For me, this is the bottom of the barrel for James Bond films. The plot is bad (megalomaniac plots to destroy silicon valley so his micro-processing company can take over the computer industry- I bet Bill Gates enjoyed it, but he’s probably the only one), the acting is bad (even Christopher Walken, as said megalomaniac, can’t save this festering mess), and just when you thought Roger Moore was getting better at this Bond gig, he delivers the worst performance imaginable.
At least when Connery was tired of 007 he let is bad attitude show through in the character. Roger Moore just looks bored and tired, as he should, since he was 57 years old when filming took place!
I think the main reason that this is the absolute worst Bond film is that it doesn’t even feel like a Bond film. Everything about it just feels generic, and James Bond is anything but generic. Fortunately, this was Roger Moore’s final appearance as 007.
