The Spy Who Loved Me
(1977)
Directed by Lewis
Gilbert this 10th entry in the Bond franchise stars Roger
Moore, Barbara Bach, Curd Jurgens and Richard Kiel. With a British
nuclear submarine missing Bond is put on the case and runs into a
Russian agent on the same job.
After two weaker
efforts Moore finally got a decent script to work with and this is
possibly his best entry into the series. The plot stretches realism a
little but this is the Bond franchise and Bond's Russian counter part
provides a strong, capable female character which is a nice change in
the series. Where the film does best in providing good production
value in some great sets and two of the iconic action sequences of
the series (the pre title ski sequence and the underwater car).
4/5
