Bond at his best!
17 March 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Roger Moore for the last time as James Bond in one of the most underrated Bondfilms of all time! AVTAK is a terrific action-adventure movie which travels all around the world. Highlights galore: a sweeping, exciting snowboard-helicopter chase on the glaciers of Iceland in the pr-credits sequence, a hazardous chase through the streets of Paris in a Renault-taxi that is first cut in half, and then the roof is shaved off. A race with a fire-engine and police-cars over the hills of San Fransisco, a flooding silver-mine, and, finally, a fight between 007 and the villain atop the Golden Gate Bridge! Christopher Walken is villain Max Zorin, one of the best heavies in the history of Bond. But also Grace Jones as Zorins sidekick May Day is more than credible. Moore checked out as Bond at just the right time, still credible here.
