I don’t remember what was my first bond film? But this was the first bond film I saw In Theaters I was 8 years old at the time, in 1985, this moive is so bad in my opinion but it still has a place in my heart. As my first movie bond experience.

@@Allenryan819 stfu it isn't bad in the slightest, it's 100x better than any of Dalton's boring attempts.

I became a fan of James Bond because of Duran Duran's #1 title smash song for this film in 1985

Same here man

Me too

My favorite Bond theme by far

Exactly

it was pretty good, not one of the best but was good

Its one of my favorites- i loved duran duran ❤️

My favourite too

What you didn't like die another day?!?!?!

Casino Royale's theme is simply amazing

@@ekifi And this one is still better.

@@rayfriedrich5224 Liked or coming close ain't the same.

@@stevem2323 Don't know man, I personally prefer the style of the Craig-era intros, and Chris Cornell's You Know My Name aced it for me.

He's not old. He's 57. 65 is the beginning of old age actually. Anyway by that I believe you think that Tom Cruise is also an old man as he's about to be in Top Gun 2 at 57 - the same age as Roger Moore when he made this?

It's very underrated imo!!!

@@mariellaharker3412 i actually agree with you, though to my mind middle age years are 40 to 59, then 60+ is old age

RIP Tanya Roberts She passed away today

Agreed... definitely in my top 3. If people would just allow for the fact that the film is supposed to be a little silly at times they would like it more.

Sir Roger Moore = the only 007

active85858585

Love Roger Moore, 007

Roger was the bond i grew up with and this was his last outing as bond and we went to the theater especially for that reason to watch his swan song as bond- it’s nostalgic for me now and i remember feeling sad about it at the time and had a hard time watching timothy dalton though he eventually grew on me - i was a big duran duran girl so this one i think has one of the best bond themes

I agree with your take. I think the "best Bond" argument pretty much amounts to who/what you grew up with determining your favorite. The scene I picture when I think of Moore as 007 is the "climbing up the side of the cliff" scene in For Your Eyes Only. Side note: To my knowledge/recollection, (naked) Sheena Easton is still the only Bond title theme song singer to appear singing the song in For Your Eyes Only.

It does indeed have the feel of danger. That soundtrack song is actually called “he’s dangerous”!

@@Gg-zd8xz Golden Gate Fight is another one!

Yep man , something about roger , I would liked him to have made one more or started with on her majesty secret service

Poursuit And Escape Scenes.Sir Roger Moore And Pierce Brosnan Are The Best.Epic 🎩

Yep he done he's own stunts like tom cruise does now . He had a double for the love scenes tho

Though interestingly, he only started skiing in his 60s.

@@simonp7095 I don’t think that Moore needed a stuntman for love scenes! 😂

Rob Schulz ha - yes! Do you prefer speed or stamina? Well, a little bit of both would be nice.

The little chuckles he has to himself whilst doing it too

Shark Jump yer right, we've peaked.

Western were already decadent in 85, peack was in the Age of summer of love...1967 when everything was possible for the dreams of the youth

@@honeyfool348 Yeah. Especially for those from the Middle East or South-East Asia.

Hard to say but I know back then you could make a living doing whatever you wanted to legally. All you had to do was work hard. Now the harder you work the worse off you are.

Oh yes. I wasn't born until 1990 but I see great films, great fashion, the ending of the cold war, Reagan, Thatcher, simpler lifestyles. The only bad thing I can think of right now is the end of Roger Moore's time as Bond

This age thing with Roger Moore god rest him is so silly.He was very blessed to have kept the Bond thing going and sex appeal can be at any age.Roger was a very lucky man and i missed him terribly.

@@allenfreeland6494 Roger Moore wasn't as manly as Sean Connery.

The "chick" is Swedish Miss World (1977) Mary Stavin.

I agree, Roger Moore was just oozing with suave-ness & sex appeal that he was able to age gracefully..but Sean Connery did not age gracefully coz he simply had a serious face to begin with & sorry but Roger Moore is more believable as 007 at age 57/58 than Connery could ever be..

@@gaynor1721 Roger Moore also wasnt' a wife beater.

Good analysis!

The swag on this Bond...

Perfectly described

Sean Murray Dalton is cool and badass too .

And Dalton is the truest Bond. He researched the character and the closest one to the original material

You can get a lot of Monopoly played in those days.

Girl name plz

Distant Early Warning detects a small iceberg bobbing up and down.

@@shamikmitra5171 Mary Stavin is her name. She was also in Octopussy. Swedish beauty queen.

Lol Well, to be fair he did look great for a guy who was pushing towards 60. He looks younger here than Daniel Craig who is ten years younger than what he was then looks now.

Nah it's great.

THEBLACKBELT Tanya Roberts was 29 then and he said her mother was younger then him along with Allison Doody who was Jenny Flex was only 18 during filming and Mary Stavin was 27 who was Kimberly Jones the Blonde in beginning in sub with Bond

Roger's age was not the problem.. the problem was, they had casted the Bond girls at a younger age bracket..I'm sure there were still many girls or ladies who were bombshells in their early 30's till at least 35..but they simply chose the young ones.. I believe Roger was still good for the role 2 or 3 more times..too bad on that..

Great point

Between Live and Let Die and A View To A Kill, I feel like The Man with the Goldfish Gun to Moonraker were his best Bond films back then. But to each his own.

I think it was the fact that he was going after women half his age

No in Goldfinger and Moonraker they go to California as well

It's creepy scenes with much younger women like in For Your Eyes Only. And Moore's obvious inability to perform the stunts stretches credulity - especially as in this film where he needs a stunt double just to get up out of chair and run after May Day in a restaurant ! There is such as thing as growing old gracefully...

@@haniputani Goldfinger in California? No, it rather plays in Miami.

I liked this movie, I rather watch this then watch time to die again which is the worst James Bond film

Definitely, up there with goldfinger

Really, it took me awhile to like the movie a view to kill but still like it better than 1990s plus movies James bond

Equalizer. I agree. Comparisons: Sylvester Stallone as Rocky Balboa aged 60 - going up for the heavyweight title against the world champion. He looked old, punchy and every bit his age. Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo aged 62 - going on a one-man war against a whole division of baddies in Burma. He looked like a drugged wreck and a drifter. Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator aged 56 - they apparently design old-looking killer cyborgs in the future. He'll certainly blend in since that's what the Terminator infiltrator units are designed for.... not. Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones aged 64. He can beat up monster sized Russian baddies in a fist-fight. A retired college professor in his 60's? Roger Moore as James Bond in A view to a Kill? Perfectly believable compared to the above mentioned. Looked younger than his age too whereas those above certainly looked their age and older. Liam Neeson is still kicking people's behinds in his 60's and people love him.

@@misscauliflowergreen9904 There are some reasons for that. A View To A Kill was older then all the other ones you compared it too. There is different audience now who feel nostalgic towards former action stars. As well the difference is rocky, rambo, the terminator, John McClane and most Liam Neeson characters are not overtly sexual. With James Bond sex appeal is part of the required package not just on the Bond girls part. Undeniably Roger Moore is the most charming and likeable of the James Bonds and unlike Connery in my opinion despite both of them having rather lackluster final films Moore was still putting in the effort and being charming unlike Connery. The issue with a View to a Kill is that Moore was 58 and sleeping with women who were young enough to be his children. That is what makes this film more uncomfortable due to the age difference. I recall hearing that Moore also felt that way when he met tanya robert's (stacy sutton) mother and she was younger then him. Even is it was a success critically I suspect Moore would still have retired from the role.

Robert McElwaine he was 57 in 1984 when filmed A View To A Kill and turned 58 when during the time it premiered in 1985. Moore announced his official retirement as Bond in 1986 when Dalton took over after Pierce Brosnan had to turn down the role for The Living Daylights as he couldn’t get out of his contract for his tv show.

@@misscauliflowergreen9904 Stallone has since appeared as a 72 year old Rambo. And Harrison Ford will be an 80 year old Indiana Jones in a couple of years.

Sir Roger Moore = the only real 007

@MagicKirin1 on her majesty secret service is seen as underrated bond

@MagicKirin1 over time there has been a general following for OHMSS. People look at that Bond film more favourably and Lazenby performance. I think if did not have that dumb agent who advised him against signing that seven film contract to play 007. Then we would have seen an improvement in his performance. After all Sean Connery performance in Diamonds are forever was quite average. Apart from the part before the credits. Although Lazenby would have done it better

@MagicKirin1 Yes I agree on Quantumn of Solace that was just a very poor Bond film

@Roborav Go fuck youself, you're garbage. You must think that Tom Cruise is too old for Top Gun 2 yeah? He's the same age as Roger Moore was when he made A View To A Kill.

@G F True and whenever you have Christopher Walken as the main villain, you know you are in for a treat.

This is an excellent movie!!!

I love this Bond Movie. DAF (1971) and CR (2006) were the worst Bond movies.

Likewise. My favorite Bond movie as well. Moore and Walken are simply brilliant.

Seema Gupta seriously? CR the worst

Lucky bastich!

I think you mean Die Another Day, and yes, this is better than Die Another Day.

@@jamesdenofantiquity no there is a skiing scene in TWINE, with Bond and Elektra King

At kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lZpkgLd5u9Klp2g.htmlm40s, the guy hanging on that cable was screaming "Roger Moore, help me !".

+Ricardo Cantoral wow, I did hear roger moore

Ricardo Cantoral wow i never noticed that until now!! 👍

No. this is of the worst classic Bond movies

alwaysOPEN4business The film had one great thing going got it, Patrick Macnee, and then they killed him off before the third act.

It strikes me funny how back then Roger Moore was too old to do action movies but somehow Liam Neeson is not . Maybe they are better able to hide stunt guys with CGI these days .

Having no attachments is what kept Bond alive so long…….until he got attachments….

& perhaps Best.

There was still octopussy.

Great story line, memorable characters & edge of your seat ending.🔥

Roger Moore is still the best

As far as I am concerned, the last great Bond song was A View To a Kill.

Dalton sucked. I'm so glad that he wasn't allowed to do this film. In fact I'll go as far as to say that Roger Moore should've stayed on and done his films as well!

Kent Darden octopussy is better for his age

Believe it or not, they wanted him for another Bond film.

byront Moore had originally planned to retire after For Your Eyes Only but decided to come back for Octopussy and then to do A View To A Kill but later wished he hadn’t as he considered it the worst Bond film he had done due to his age which he brought that up as knew he was too old to share scenes with the younger Bond girls as said there mothers were younger then him. He genuinely disliked the violence in film and couldn’t stand working with Grace Jones. He felt he had no chemistry with Tanya Roberts.

@@scottknode898 Interesting. Well Octopussy is an underrated Bond film. It's better than the critics state. Even though the plot was not that good, there was lots of action and suspense. A View to A Kill wasn't as good but is certainly not the worst Bond film of all time, which is on someone's list.

@@alfredvalrie5541 Well Tom Cruise is too old for Top Gun 2 then? He's the same age as Roger Moore when he was in AVTAK.
