Tom Mar 23, 2026 I love this film, one of the best bond films, just the whole vibe. See more Huntin P @PaxVobiscum80 3 days ago Thrilling adventure, bouncing from Bratislava to Afghanistan, Vienna and, was it, Morocco in the middle? Timothy Dalton, the romantic Bond, makes his debut, the first of only two outings sadly. Amazing to think that the Slavic Blonde girl he takes with him ordinarily has a British accent. There's also that actor who was in Edge Of Darkness, and that other actor from that other thing. Oh, and what's his name from Indiana Jones and Middle Earth? The sequence on the military plane towards the end is scary enough to induce a fear of flying, I'd say. How they ever landed it, given that there was nowhere to land, is a mystery we'll just have to overlook. Oh, come to think of it, doesn't the movie start on Gibraltar? Where hasn't Bond been to? Aha provide the theme song, a good one, very 80s. See more stephenpaul C @ash20261234567890 Sep 13, 2026 The worldwide gross is $191,200,000.00.

See more Wayne K @WayneKelso Jun 10, 2026 Roger Moore’s departure from the Bond role was more of a necessity than a choice, as it was clear the series needed a rethink. The Living Daylights is a return to the more brutal and no-nonsense Bond of old, and for the most part it’s a really solid film. Dalton makes for a suitably serious, even nervous Bond at times, and Maryam D’Abo is given more personality then the typical Bond girl. The film falters when it gets to the final act where the Mujahideen get involved, as the link it has with the central plot is flimsy at best. Also, the Soviet defection storyline quickly becomes unnecessarily complicated, which only serves to undermine the dramatic stakes. It’s a movie that likely saved the franchise after the disaster that was A View To A Kill, and while it might not be 007’s finest outing it’s still a great instalment that I thoroughly enjoyed. See more IAM M @IAM1655 Jun 7, 2026 Timothy Dalton's first movie as James Bond is pretty good. He and Maryam d'Abo's chemistry is actually better than I expected. The opening in Gibraltar, the ice chase, the amusement park, and the ending is actually fun to watch. The villains Koskov, and Whitaker are pretty lame. Necros is strong at the start, but throughout he's fallen off. See more Read all reviews
