Good Fun

James Bond (Timothy Dalton) is living on the edge to stop an evil arms dealer from starting another world war. Bond crosses all seven continents in order to stop the evil Whitaker (Joe Don Baker) and General Koskov (Jeroen Krabbé).

This film has some very 1980s with references to Barry Manilow and "ghetto blasters". Q has stranger inventions than ever (much more than we saw in the early films), which adds to the humor. And then you have the frozen lake scene, which is also pretty humorous. In comparison to previous Bond movies, this is a bit lighter.

Timothy Dalton may get overlooked as a Bond, much less identifiable as the character than Connery, Moore or Brosnan. But he is not a bad Bond at all. In fact, he is probably a better Bond than Moore was. Connery will always be the best, though.
