Top Critics Reviews

This one, directed by John Glen, just follows the numbers, plodding from one unimaginative set piece to the next.

While Bond pics have always traded heavily on the camp value of its characters, A View to a Kill almost attacks the humor, practically winking at the audience with every move.

As lavishly escapist as they are, the latest James Bond films have become strenuous to watch, now that the business of maintaining Bond's casual savoir-faire looks like such a monumental chore.

rotten:
A View to a Kill is often numbered among the worst of the series, but, upon closer inspection, this film is a vast improvement over Octopussy.

It is exhausted and exhausting, an old joke retold once too often.
