Movie Reviews of The Living Daylights

Movie Review: My favorite James Bond movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

Believe me The Living Daylights (which is probobly the most underrated Bond movie) is the best. It's got enough action to keep you occupied but not enough in that you're exaused at the end. Although the villians aren't all that "villianes" they're still good. General Geogri Koskov of the KGB defected to the British, then turned on them. The only downside is the girl. Kara Milovy is a Slovakian chelest who is very weak and looks too old to be a girl to be with James Bond. Timothy Dalton is the best James Bond. He's serious when he needs to be and not when he doesn't have to be. He is unlike Rodger Moore who took everything humorosly. This IS the best James Bond movie, take my word for it!

Movie Review: The best bond of the 80s (and of all time in my opinion)
Summary: 5 Stars

The Living Daylights is my favorite bond. This is Timothy Dalton's first bond. There's a lot of action (and not to mention a cool car chase!). They finally brought back an Aston Martin for the first time since OHMSS. The girl could have been better though. But I guess there were a lot of things I would have changed in the film but still my fav.

Movie Review: He's Back.. And badder then ever!
Summary: 5 Stars

I had my doubts before seeing this dvd about this film because of all the negitive remarks about daltons portral of bond. After seeing it, I really do beleave that THIS is EXACTLY what Brosnan is missing in his films. Bond is a hardass in this film, who doesent take crap from anyone. Also, this movie has the 2nd most beleavable bond girl relationship in the entire series, (2nd only to FYEO). You get the feeling that bond really gives a crap about this girl, and the girl really has feelings for him and is not just atracted to bonds sex appeal. This really adds to this movies value. The Aston Martin is back in all of its glory. Q sequences are great also. This film has a great story that makes u watch it to try and figure it out, while being treated to a great amount of action. My only complaint about the movie is the main villin doesen't have that BAD GUY feel to him at all, but maybe it just adds more realism to the movie that these guys are more human bad guys, rather then mad men trying to take over the world. Necros, the main henchman actuly does a lot of stuff in the film. Probley the most a henchman has ever done in a bond movie. Great film, Great action. IF ONLY DALTON MADE MORE THEN 2 BOND FILMS. A must see.. DO NOT HESITATE TO BUY IF YOU GET THE CHANCE. THIS IS THE REAL JAMES BOND!!!

Movie Review: Tipping The Hat To Mr. Fleming!
Summary: 4 Stars

With Timothy Dalton replacing Roger Moore as James Bond, the franchise embarks on a new and welcome direction. Taking advantage of Dalton's tougher and more serious personality, "The Living Daylights" returns to the more authentic style and tone of the Bond novels and early movies, and in doing so recaptures the spirit of Ian Fleming. This was Dalton's original idea behind his portrayal, and the producers chose wisely to back it up. Rightfully so the DVD includes a wonderful documentary with Fleming as the subject. As a result of this renewed approach, the series once again shifts its focus to the Cold War (albeit it nearing its twilight), and the themes of espionage and political intrigue that have distinguished some of the better Bonds. In turn, the action becomes much more realistic and intense than that of the Roger Moore era, with fantastic stunts to be found all around. It's not a perfect film; it's biggest weakness being it's apparent lack of a truly menacing villainous presence. But it's a wonderful breath of fresh air after the Moore years and succeeds on most counts. John Barry contributes his final score to the franchise, beautifully updating the sound to reflect the late 80's, and collaborates with Norwegian rock group a-ha to deliver a good, underrated title song which has been unfairly bashed by many. You be the judge.
