Moonraker description This was the first James Bond adventure produced after the success of Star Wars, so it jumped on the sci-fi bandwagon by combining the suave appeal of Agent 007 (once again played by Roger Moore) with enough high-tech hardware and special effects to make Luke Skywalker want to join Her Majesty's Secret Service. After the razzle-dazzle of The Spy Who Loved Me, this attempt to latch onto a trend proved to be a case of overkill, even though it brought back the steel-toothed villain Jaws (Richard Kiel) and scored a major hit at the box office. This time Bond is up against a criminal industrialist named Drax (Michel Lonsdale) who wants to control the world from his orbiting space station. In keeping with his well-groomed style, Bond thwarts this maniacal Neo-Hitler's scheme with the help of a beautiful, sleek-figured scientist (played by Lois Chiles with all the vitality of a department-store mannequin). There's a grand-scale climax involving space shuttles and ray guns, but despite the film's popular success, this is one Bond adventure that never quite gets off the launching pad. It's as if the caretakers of the James Bond franchise had forgotten that it's Bond--and not a barrage of gizmos and gadgets (including a land-worthy Venetian gondola)--that fuels the series' success. Despite Moore's passive performance (which Pauline Kael described as "like an office manager who is turning into dead wood but hanging on to collect his pension"), Moonraker had no problem attracting an appreciative audience, and there are even a few renegade Bond-philes who consider it one of their favorites. --Jeff Shannon |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | james bound with a touch of star wars |
| In moonraker the action packed sequel and continuation of the spy who loved me James bound must stop a mad man who has stolen moonraker a us space shuttle from wiping out all man kind with and orb filled with a leathal flower particles. The first set of with a new bad guy for the first in the film history of Bond Spector was not the villains reposible for this crime. Infact after this film none of the spector members are seen again expect for blowfield in the beginning of your eyes only. Even though he supposedly died about sixteen year prior in the climax of 1971 diamonds are forever. This is one of roger mores best. Those that loved the Spy who love me get and extra special treat. Who makes a reappearance in this film but Jaws hire as a minion of evil master mind played by Michael Lonsdale. Jaws was the only minion who survived the destruction of aquatic lair of evil mastermind Stronghold in the Spy who loved me. This was Roger More third to last aperance his last two appearance were Octopussy in 1983 and a view to a kill 1984. Can roger more stop the evil mad man from destroying all human life on earth expect for a couple dozen chosen people on his staff. Or has James bond final meet his match or will help come from an unepexcted source find out in the thrilling conclusion. If you like this I recommend these other bond films staring roger more A View to a Kill, Octopussy The spy who Loved Me, and Live and let Die. | |
