Summary: Long in the tooth Moore having fun in Octopussy
Review: 1983 marked the year that two James Bond 007 were released.The unofficial Never Say Never Again, a Thunderball remake featuring Sean Connery, and the EON produced Octopussy.
Roger Moore's sixth Bond movie is a step down from the grittier tone For Your Eyes Only in it's tongue and cheek approach.Going to India, Bond uncovers a smuggling operation involving Fabrage Eggs, a dead 00 agent, and a circus front operated by the title character (Maud Adams).
This is to be Moore's Penultimate Bond film as the aging actor intended this to be his last movie, only to make one last appearance in A View To A Kill.

Summary: One of the less memorable Moore Bonds
Review: Coming right after 'For Your Eyes Only', Albert Brocolli once again introduces a Bond film that is more down to earth than some of its precessors such as 'Moonraker.' Although not terribly captivating, it's still a good film and way above par of the Timothy Dalton films that would come later.
Bond is out to avenge the assassination of another agent who was bringing back information from across the Iron Curtain. Bond's quest soon takes him to India where he meets Octopussy (Maud Adams) who's not entirely aware of her criminal partner's (Louis Jourdan) plans. Bond soon finds out what those plans are and is out to save the world once again.
This isn't the most memorable Moore Bond but it has good action. As with it's predecessor, Bond doesn't have a lot of gadgets in this film other than a laser pen which he rarely uses. The film has a great fight sequence on a cargo plane in full flight. A good Bond film to watch several times.

Summary: A mixed bag & poor sound
Review: In all honesty, Octopussy is a film that divides the James Bond fan base. On the plus side, it features one of Roger Moore's better performances, quality supporting players, superb action sequences, and real dramatic tension in many key moments. As negatives, the plot is Byzantine and there are cringe-worthy moments of silliness (including the title). While the movie at certain points is as silly as "Moonraker", it also achieves the grittiness of "For Your Eyes Only" in others. Another example of the film's inconsistency is the score. While John Barry's use of the title song (All Time High) in a symphonic suite is pleasing and sensual, the overall score lacks the punch and flair of his earlier work on the series. Nonetheless, if you can relax and enjoy the performances, locations, and action, and forget trying to figure out the plot, Octopussy is actually quite an enjoyable ride. DVD: The recent releases of the Bond films have had an excellent complement of features and Octopussy is no different. Unfortunately, the producers did not go the extra mile on the sound quality. The 2.0 sound mix is a major disappointment, as the film presents many moments that could have sounded superb in 5.1.
