This film was made in the dying moments of the James Bond legacy, furthermore Timothy Dalton had the look but the story was weak and disappointing, Pierce Brosnan was suppose to be the next Bond but because of lawsuits from NBC on the so called copying from Remington Steele this was a no go from both sides.
Timothy Dalton has the look of Bond and delivers a performance that we would expect from a Bond film, except for a weak story and it also felt rushed, this film has a really great vibe and direction, but like I said the storyline is just not there. We just came from the Roger Moore era and which gave the Bond experience excitement but with this instalment, it just seemed to me like a one hour television show storyline from most of the popular shows on the tube at the time.
I wish Mr. Dalton would of had the chance to be in the story lines that Brosnan got. What a waste of talent. Timothy Dalton did what he could, for what he was given, but his Bond films all 2 of them were just fillers all because of the NBC contract that Brosnan was in, and nothing more. As you would say to hold the tide and save the best for last. I don't think Dalton got a fair chance, at playing Bond even though he tried his best.
