For Your Eyes Only (1981)
Country: GB
Technical: col/scope 127m
Director: John Glen
Cast: Roger Moore, Carole Bouquet, Topol, Julian Glover
Synopsis:
The struggle to keep a missile aiming device out of terrorist hands takes Bond to Spain and Greece, where he joins forces with a woman who has motives of her own.
Review:
Slightly coarsened addition to the series, Moore's fifth, and showing the star decidedly too old for the role. The music is not from Barry, and it shows, and there are fewer special effects than before (not in itself a bad thing, though it does make the adventure indistinguishable from a long episode of The Professionals or such). The pauses for travelogue and romance are perfunctory, the set pieces contrived, and the whole exercise looks rather tired.
