The next two years, the second bond Director John Glen, another performance of Roger Moore — seemingly Western front change an no — meet the latest Bond with Moore in the lead role!
Without long digressions, let's just with place in careers. The main advantage of the "View murder" — is an action scene. Absolutely everything they are elegant and basically superior to even the "Octopus". And Glen doesn't reinvent the wheel — template for the standard shooting, fighting, car chases, underline. However, if the fight — on high cornices and, God forbid, to a very tall bridge. If the chase, then the fire truck from the cops, where the bond will be honored to hang on the fire escape. Where in the chase Bond on skis? Properly, many places. But where you saw the Bond is so dynamic and crazy chase on skis? Perhaps in the subsequent parts and will meet better, but yet "view of the murder" served in the plan "Only for your eyes", and"On the secret service of her Majesty."
Last time I was indignant that John Glen present the style and thought in the future it will find it. So here — has already happened. "Reckless", so I this style is described. Hamilton could also to attribute, but he is still more irony, but on the part of the crazy and madness Glen is clearly ahead of the aforementioned the Director of "Goldfinger".
Its main merit this part — stress. Never before Bonds are not been so fascinating. A vivid example — battle high altitudes. The heart is compressed, when it order of the old Roger Moore runs the ledges for black parkerize, what could be talking about battle Gold bridge, in which the tape manages to evoke in the viewer a fear of heights. In the genre of spy movie more clearly the altitude was felt, except that, in the fourth "Mission Impossible", where Tom cruise crawling on the Burj Khalifa Dubai between these two movies, sorry, about thirty years difference.
Voltage and a lot of details — these two component doing the action component of this bond almost not the best among the previous thirteen. When the Director, even the chase on horseback manages to perform at bis — here only to crumble in Amaziah and left. However...
However, traditionally, between one action scene and the other is earplugs with the"peace" scenes. The story here is, in surprise, quite interesting, just like in "Octopussy". However, the characters in the depth of the characters do not added a the talk between them is not become smarter. And the thing — exactly the peaceful chatter part in basically is. Chatter as already understood not helluva lot of fun. Sometimes, the villain will throw someone out of the aircraft, is, bond would go on a espionage, sometimes, the villain will calculate the zero-zero-seven at the computer, but mostly peaceful scenes, though, and not to much boring because, again, the surprise of an interesting plot, but and not very memorable, and sometimes they can be tiring, so as the two hours and ten minutes — the timing is not that is the smallest of the possible. I wouldn't notice that's as much attention, if not "Octopussy", where out of action, the authors still found better ways to entertain the viewer, to take the battle the auction.
Companion here, perhaps, the most unnecessary and easily cut out all of the previous parts. Seriously, it here and not very, need, and run the bond begins a the end. Apparently, the authors decided to add passion bond in a tribute to tradition but only, because it is wrong to back up a step the usual pattern. Not get it wrong — girl irritates, even amuses, yeah and very good-looking, and even with no tearful love drum level "From Russia with love", however, without it easily could do it in this tape looks like not sewn Mare's tail.
The villain is not to say that outstanding. A product of genetic engineering of the Nazis with another crazy plan. Blue-eyed blonde who always puts the target above medium — the Wehrmacht would be proud of. Played it, by the way, Oscar winner Christopher Walken. However, much more interesting handy black — crazy parkerize, great outline bream agents of the British secret service. Yeah and it it is banal more character there.
The soundtrack was pleased once again — it is gorgeous. Neither to add nor to subtract.
What to results of the film. The "peaceful" part would out better, but viewing it is not me ruined two hours passed still the only way. Appeared tension, action became even more dynamic and diverse. In General General — "wasmerely" credit.
What to totals to Roger Moore. For Sean Connery the time was constantly looking for the right way — serious, professional agent, for which above all work, full of irony jester, who in pursuit of the skirt could please trap to terrorists and save only when a miracle of conventions, but in the end, and that, and other could join together, it is a pity that only "you only Live twice" ("the Diamonds" doesn't even want). Moore's well from has got a solid image, so on for all seven movies "Rodionovsky era" bond nor never were changed. Hardly someone will challenge it professionalism: Moore's bond has always been able to show off a wide knowledge of conversations superiors always find a way out in difficult situation and know how to use all that under hand in the right moment. But the irony and humanity still hasn't go away. Best like describe it trump, built on the game of words, of phrases, which he nearly always on time and accurately lampooned in addition to seen. Himself the actor was laid to complete and clearly love bond stronger than Connery, because of what I fell in love with, though, and not much, but stronger than Sean. Why leave? At the time of filming, he struck 57 — try this age in front of cameras with a gun at the ready to run and simulate a race on the ledges Yes any battle with the chase. Seven films — the number is significant. So that I accompany it happily, so as Roger did the right thing and gone, too, is not I look forward to new experiences from a new cast to the role of zero-zero-seven. Rodionovskaya the era was gorgeous, but it's time to move on — to the new challenges.
