This time Bond faces soldiers clad in sporty lemon-yellow spacesuits, Italian gangsters, a lousy sniper, a lousy henchman Chang and a big fat python.

I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs. Revisited it recently. Currently i am on a Bond marathon but its more than 2 months gap between this n the last, The Spy Who Loved Me.

This is the eleventh in the Bond series and the fourth to star Roger Moore as James Bond. I found it a bit tedious n mild as there is no threatening villain or no old skool henchman. It was obviously made to cash in on the Star Wars phenomenon. The other reason i didn't enjoy this is cos there is too much reliance on special effects.

This time Bond has to face Hugo Drax, a Hitler wannabe. Bond has to travel to outer space to prevent Drax's plan to wipe out the world population and to recreate humanity with a master race.

This time Bond gets to cool off with Corinne Clery, Lois Chiles n Emily Bolton.

Apart from Drax, Bond once again has to face Jaws and another henchman known as Chang. Bond also faces innumerable foot-soldiers clad in sporty lemon-yellow spacesuits with black stripes, Italian gangsters in Venice, a lousy sniper and a big fat python. I wanted Bond to face the dogs too.

Some info about Hugo Drax from the book. Drax is a Nazi soldier and Skorzeny Werwolf commando.

At least it is not the worst Bond film,....but it's sure close

Apart from the terrible VIEW TO A KILL, I think this is the very worst Roger Moore James Bond film. Most of the blame was on the insistence in having Jaws reappear in this film. Although there were many Bond fans who loved him and he was tolerable in THE SPY WHO LOVED ME, he was an embarrassingly stupid character that demeaned the series. I have read all the Bond books and I understand that in most cases the movies only borrow the titles from the original books, but in this case the entire spirit of Bond is gone and the "thrust" in on gadgets, a stupid villain and sexual innuendos like calling Bond's love interest "Dr. Goodhead"--wow, what a surprise he actually got some nooky from THIS lady. In general, the movie is like a Bevis and Butthead interpretation of Bond.

Not the best Bond, but I wouldn't necessarily call it awful either

I personally didn't love or hate Moonraker. It has a lot of flaws, but it does have strengths too. What didn't quite work so well is that the plot is unexceptional on the whole, while apart from Sir Hugo Drax's dialogue the script has a lot of ups and downs. Also the film does drag quite badly, and the film goes on for too long I think. However, whether in space, in Venice or in Rio Moonraker is visually striking thanks to the decent special effects and lovely cinematography. John Barry's score is also really good, not his best, but one of his better Bond scores I think. The direction is not too bad really, while the acting is better than it is given credit for. Michael Lonsdale steals the show, while Lois Chiles is good enough as Holly Goodhead and it was nice to see Richard Kiel as Jaws again. Roger Moore has been better but he wasn't awful either, in fact I liked him and feel he was much more convincing than he was in A View to a Kill, where he was starting to show his age. Overall, not the best Bond or the best of the Roger Moore Bonds(personally I think that goes to Spy Who Loved Me) but Moonraker is better than Octopussy and A View to a Kill, again that is my opinion. 6/10 Bethany Cox
