this be an excellent james bond movie . although it be not part of the original and more famous series and and it be a standalone film and it be very well do . entice sean connery to return to the role he make famous be a stroke of genius and a be title the movie in a way that reference his past vow to not play bond again . connery be as great a he be in his early 007 appearance . the script be outstanding and a be the photography and the performance . it the early movie i recall with kim basinger and who become much more famous after this film while barbara carrera be excellent while and klaus maria brandauer be absolutely perfect a the main villain . the frequent reference to the aging of bond and the change time and attitude of the british secret service be most humorous . the 007 gadget equal those of the other bond film . the only thing missing be the famous 007 music theme and which and of course and could not be use by this compete production . it be rather amaze to me to be able to see two excellent james bond movie release in the same year and this one and octopussy with roger moore . an interesting aspect of the film be an emphasis on video game and computer graphic . the early 80 be the first heyday of such thing and and the use of them in this film make it a very contemporary movie . the film be actually a different version of thunderball and update with new technology . regardless of the repeated theme and there be sufficient difference to make it most entertaining . i will watch this one frequently .
