Near the end when Bond is chasing Herve Villechaize around the bedroom, Villechaize starts throwing wine bottles. Empty wine bottles.

This is one of the great Bon films. James Bond not only acts for the good of the world and His Majesty, but exceptionally is also out to save his own neck after he is threatened by a nefarious killer. As is usual there is a hottie or two, exotic locations and a 'golden gun.'The acting is top notch and I have to mention the always always impressive Christopher Lee.A good film that proves the saying 'they don't make them like they used to' is completely true. By the way, I am a teenager so not 65 and I still loved it.

I like Roger Moore as an actor who has a refined and amiable performance as proved in his Pre- Bond film career. The previous Bond Film he did Live and Let Die demonstrated that he was capable of playing Bond to the same epic level as Sean Connery had done. However this film though enjoyable as it is and should not be treated with antipathy is the beginning of the end of the classic Bond films in which it diverts away from its original sources in to a meaning of it's own. However in context to the review I will start with the Good points of this film first:-The lead cast is good with Roger Moore, Britt Ekland and Christopher Lee who play their acting roles well with good character representation. The character of Nic Nak is especially grasping and intriguing as a villainous sidekick. The music by Lulu and opening titles are good. These major strengths make the film an overall success. Now the downside: - As a stated this unlike the previous Bond is when it starts to decline with Roger Moore who proved despite being a good actor was a good Bond but did not upheld it in his later films. The story lines begin to become cheesy and corny that becomes a pseudo-Bond film away from the original spirit and style of the classic novels as previously it had been scrupulously adapted to film and this deterrent spoilt the film brand. The story line of the Man with the Golden Gun should of been autonomously the later film Licence to Kill made 15 years later one film to much was used. This later film is the closest to this films original source content which would also of ensured standards of authenticity.

This Bond movie contains an untempered flow of obscenities and sexual content, much more than the average accepted tone of the figure. There is at least a sexual innuendo every two minutes in this movie. Apart that action is bit above the previous Bond. Scenery is great. Of course the plot contains its share of inconsistencies, such as when the villain acquires an industrial empire just by killing it's previous owner ... The villain has a very small staff this time. The intro and conclusion scenes are great. And the whole plot is scientifically half-believable, which is an improvement over the average Bond's. I would definitely not recommend this movie for family viewing but it's not the worst in its genre.
