Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
There's a fine line between wit and absurdity, and this particular movie too often falls on the wrong side.

fresh:
Makes no pretense of being based on anything except the Ian Fleming character and the high good humor and wit of the film makers.

rotten:
Bond had degenerated into a male model, and something of a genial anachronism.

fresh:
Film's high points are the spectaccular aerial stuntwork marking both the pre-credits teaser and extremely dangerous-looking climax.

rotten:
Glen's willingness to give the action sequences a certain weight and seriousness produces some genuinely exciting moments, yet his work is everywhere undermined by the flatness of the characterizations and the uncertain architecture of the plot.
