    Why is this the best James Bond film ever?
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2018*

1, Best Bond title track.  This Sheen Easton hit from the 80's even beats Paul McCartney's Live and Let Die.  Popular, contemporary and original hit that fits the seductive tone of a Bond movie opening sequence.2. Roger Moore at his peak.  Sure, he is starting to show his age a little as Connery did, with noticeably fewer if any shirtless scenes and zero sex scenes, which is quite odd for any Bond film.  In fact, he even turns down sex once when a young vixen strips down and tries to seduce him which makes us consider him as more sophisticated than the brutish Bond that Connery played.  Moore also does eyebrow expressions masterfully whenever he is threatened or angry, he raises an eyebrow in a distinctly British manner and it is just chilling to watch.  No other Bond had this level of eyebrow Charisma.3. Best chase scene ever.  Hands down.  Period.  Sure, Lazenby did a skiing sequence in Her Majesty's Secret Service, but this ski scene is extraordinary for several reasons.  For one, intensity and duration.  This is a solid 10 minutes or more of the film and the skiing stunts are absolutely insane.  Good old fashioned stunt work trumps special effects as this scene clearly shows.  Also, for a chase scene it is unique because it features 3 different types of vehicles, more or less.  A car, two motorcycles, and a man on skis.  Next the setting is unique because not only does this great chase take place on a ski slope but an Olympic training course which takes us over long jumps and bobsled runs.  It holds up well with age and is a breathtaking chase to watch even to this day.4. This plot actually makes sense.  You really have to suspend disbelief to accept that some Bond plots are actually a matter of British national security.  Here, there is a clear threat.  A decoding device is lost at sea and the English must recover it before the Russians, otherwise all hell would break lose.  It is a valid threat and compelling enough to warrant the use of their top agent, 007.5. Great opening sequence involving a helicopter.  There are so few films with helicopter stunts in them.  In fact, I can think of hardly any except for this one.  Perhaps a helicopter is limited in what it can do stunt-wise or it is just too dangerous.  But forget that, this is the crazy 80's and the helicopter scenes are quite exhilarating.  Bond gets locked in the back of a helicopter that has no pilot and has to exit the craft and re-enter from the front to regain control.  These poor underpaid stuntmen!  All the while narrowly missing buildings and bridges and flying inside a warehouse.  Good stuff!The only weak points are the lack of exploitation that we usually see in Bond movies, a very underwhelming villain, and having only one Bond girl in the entire film who somehow manages to keep her clothes on the entire time.

    Surprisingly grounded and reasonable James Bond outing
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2018*

For Your Eyes Only: 7 out of 10: A semi-remake of On Her Majesties Secret Service this Roger Moore outing takes Bond closer to his roots as he investigates the assassination of a salvage expert who was recovering a nuclear McGuffin.If you recall, On Her Majesties Secret Service would have been one of the best Bond films had it not starred that black hole of charisma George Lazenby. Remaking it with Roger Moore seemed like a good idea. In addition, after Moore’s last outing was Moonraker, bringing the series back to something resembling Earth also seemed wise.The Good: Leaving aside the pre-credit sequence this is actually a grounded story that seems like an actual mission an agent for British Intelligence would have. One of our guys was killed we think this is the killer so go rattle his tree and find out who hired him. The film also manages to have actual double-crosses and surprises. In addition, neither Bond nor the bad guys have entire armies of people in identical jumpsuits shooting wildly at each other. Bond actually uses stealth.The underwater shots in this film are gorgeous. The underwater action is well done as well. Like male cinematic Lara Croft, Bond has had trouble with underwater levels in the past (The entire Thunderball movie being prosecution exhibit one) but they really hit this one out of the park.There is also some quality acting outside of Moore’s usual bit. Topal, in particular, needs his own movie.The Bad: The film lacks that wow moment. It has some spectacular stunts and bits but none of them are all that memorable. One of the downsides of being grounded I am afraid. You need to have a stunt or set-piece that makes one wonder how did they do that.The Bond girls are an overall weak sauce in this tome as well. We have an underaged Ice skater, Pierce Bronson’s actual wife and a French actress that doesn’t speak English. This makes for an overall poor showing. Also, in reality, Roger is looking a bit long in the tooth to be chasing any of these women James Bond or no.The Ugly: I am not going to say that the pre-credit sequence was the worst in any Bond film. There really is some pretty stiff competition out there. But this has to be one of the most misguided. In an attempt to tie up loose plot holes we have Bond laying flowers at the grave of his wife that was killed during In Her Majesties Secret Serice. Then a helicopter, that might have had the words “It’s a Trap” written on its side, shows up and spirits him off to London where Blofield is controlling it remotely. Now the producers apparently couldn’t afford the star of Pumaman himself so Blofield is played from behind by both a bald man that looks nothing like Donald Pleasance and at a time by a dummy that looks just like a shop mannequin from Macy’s tied to a helicopter. It has nothing to do with the rest of the movie and it is awful. I mean not as awful as the Margret Thatcher impersonator at the end of the film awful but still.In Conclusion: Forgettable but an overall good time is had in this again surprisingly grounded and reasonable James Bond outing. I am not sure grounded and reasonable is the reason I watch James Bond but I enjoyed myself nonetheless.

    For Your Eyes Only
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 5, 2018*

1981’s For Your Eyes Only was memorable for me as the first Bond film I saw at the cinema, although had at that point watched up to The Man with the Golden Gun on TV. Despite having seen the film on video and TV a few times over the years, watching the Blu Ray on my HD Projector and in 5.1 digital surround and after recently watching all the other Bond Films brought home again just why this is an excellent James Bond film and certainly ranks alongside Live and Let Die or The Spy Who Loved Me as Roger Moore’s best outing as 007 and deserves a place in most fans top ten Bond films.Why is it so good?  After the excesses of the Spy Who Loved Me and even more so Moonraker, EON went back to basics remembering not all of James Bond novels where about supervillains wanting world domination but Bond battling mid-level gangsters and operatives.For Your Eyes only was the first Bond of the five 1980s Bond Films to be directed by John Glen. I understand the original intention was For Your Eyes Only and the opening sequence to introduce a new actor to play James Bond with Roger Moore only being enticed back at the last min. Was that a good or bad thing? Good because Moore certainly gives his best performance as James Bond possibly because the script was aimed at a back to basics Bond. Bad because it would have been better in the long run to have cast a new actor since Moore was clearly too old in both Octopussy and a View to A Kill and the producers were always to tempted to make things silly whilst Moore was Bond, hence the series lost impetus again until Timothy Dalton took over. Perhaps a new actor who made 5 Bond films in the 1980s might have successfully rebooted the franchise just like what was later attempted with Brosnan and more recently and successfully with Daniel Craig. Nevermind!The tone of For Your Eyes Only is not unlike earlier Bond films like OHMSS, Thunderball, From and Russia with Love and later films like Licence to Kill, Goldeneye or Casino Royale than what was  typical of the Roger Moore era. This is also a film that is very much set in Ian Fleming’s books since the screen play was largely based on two short stories For Your Eyes Only – where a young woman called Havelock sets out to avenge the hitman who murdered her parents and Risico – where Bond teams up with Columbo against the double agent, traitor and opium smuggler Kristatos who tries to frame Columbo. In addition, the screenplay made use of un-filmed elements from other Bond Novels such as Goldfinger, OHMSS, and Live and Let Die. The Greek setting is also a homage to Kingsley Amis’s Bond novel Colonel Sun In in all, FYEO is almost as high in pure Fleming DNA as any of the films up to and including Live and Let Die and 2006’s Casino Royale.The action and the style generally much more gritty and realistic and exactly what you would expect from spy caper and thriller. It doesn’t venture too far into campy self-parody. OK there are a few such as the opening sequence where Bond kills Blofeld, the 2CV6 car chase, the ice hockey fight scene where Bond dispatches the baddies over the goal line and the ending with Thatcher talking to the parrot who she thinks is Bond. Yes these are a few moments of silliness but otherwise its it is how it should be.For Your Eyes Only was the first Bond Film to acknowledge the greatness and try to rehabilitate On Her Majesty’s Secret Service which had been considered the black sheep of the James Bond films. It offers continuity from OHMSS such as Bond visiting Theresa Bond’s grave and the killing of Blofeld (albeit unnamed for legal reasons) in same opening sequence. In addition, there are the skiing and bobsleigh sequences in Cortina that owe a debt to OHMSS. This continues when the action moves to Greece with the character of Columbo played by Topol a “good” criminal owes a lot to Marc Ange Draco (Tracy’s father) in OHMSS although one could say from the novels that character of Draco owes much to Columbo and other Bond allies like Karim Bey and Mattis that Ian Fleming deployed.There are some criticisms – Roger Moore was beginning to look a bit too old.  The Villain Kristatos played by Julian Glover isn’t really menacing or memorable enough.  He’s certainly not a typical Bond Villain or henchman and he does not seem to get enough screen time, mind there again he tries to set up Columbo for assassination by Bond. Perhaps he is just to subtle for a bond movie which is rather odd since Glover is usually great at playing villains but all in all he seems like a number two rather than a number one ok he works for the Soviet’s but it would have been more convincing to work for a really nasty Russian general like Orlov rather than the nice and cuddly & peace loving General Gogol. Then there is Bill Conti’s score which divides yes John Barry is missed overall but the score has some great moments including the Theme song and Ski / Motorbike chase in Cortina, but it isn’t quite the music needed for a Bond Film not enough of the James Bond theme –  unlike when Michael Kamen covered for Barry for Licence To Kill or the work of David Arnold.As to the BLU Ray. The picture and sound are fantastic.A great purchase for all James Bond fans
