Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Roger Moores' best Bond movie.
Review: I saw this film when it first came out when I was 14 and I still think it's Moores' best. Great locals in this one. Supporting cast of Lee, Ecklund and Adams adds greatly to this film. However, Moore starts to show his age in this film. The heavy make-up only makes it worse. The action is superb, especially the car chase using American Motors automobiles.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: GOLDEN MOVIE
Review: Man With The Golden Gun is in my opinion, a great acted movie. The movie centers totally around Lee and Moore. This is Moore's second appearance in the Bond series and maybe his best performance. Lee was of course the first choice for the original James Bond vehicle and it now makes me wonder that had Lee made that original Bond movie could he have been as great as Connery was in the role. Golden Gun is a great Bond flick, I recommend it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The Golden Bomb
Review: This film is a turkey. Plain and simple. I made the mistake of reading the book first, then seeing this movie. First of all: the Bond girls. First there is Mary Goodnight. Though a strong character in the book, she is a buffoon in the movie. She spends a lot of time scantly clad or trapped in a closet or the trunk of a car. At least she's pretty. Then there's Andrea Anders. She's not as pretty, but at least defend herself. However, she gives Bond some info about Scaramanga, and is bumped off. Another thing: the title character. Christopher Lee's Scaramanga just doesn't seem threatening, and at some points, we pity him. Nick Nack (a miniature Oddjob) steals the show. Even the 360-Degree car jump, the best stunt in the film, is ruined with a slide whistle-like sound effect. (Jeers for bringing back J.W. Pepper.) I do give the makers of this movie credit for one thing: they recovered from this dud and made "The Spy Who Loved Me", one of the best in the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 95% Gold!
Review: This is a great Bond movie! I really liked the golden gun against Bond's Walther PPK! Awsome! I like how Bond killed Scaramanga! The only thing bad about the movie is Nick Nack! Super annoying and dumb!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This movie is so cool. It is my favorite in the whole series
Review: This movie is so exciting. I can't see how so many people hate it. It is my favorite in the series.It is filled with action with plenty of funny parts.I love it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Watch this when None of the Bond Movies are available
Review: One of the worst Movies of the series. A Very thin plot. And what is this ? Frustrated with the situation 'M' asks 'Q' to shut up and 'Q' lets 'M' go without a return remark. A truly hilarious moment is when Bond does a one-kick knockout during a Martial Arts fight. Nick Nack is very annoyable most of the times. Christopher Lee could not give right justice to the character of Fransisco Scaramanga. He was never that chilling. The broken bridge jump was good but was ruined by the terrible Sound effect. The Golden Gun which could be folded into a lighter was a good weapon , a perfect match to the Walther PPK though. The giant maze created by Scaramanga is quite good but there's nothing in this movie which can be enjoyed by a Bond fan. Neither there is enough suspense nor there is enough action. Don't bother if you haven't bought or rented this one. You can consider yourself lucky.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: My Golden Gun Against Your Walther PPK!
Review: OK this was not the best Bond movie but it was alright. The ending was cool. I think that this is one of the few movies Moore wanted to get to the bottom of a mission.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not too bad, considering...
Review: This could have been a lot worse. It must be understood that Ian Fleming died while writing the novel, and the publishing company finished it. The book was very weak as a result, so the writers had to come up with something fresh. The result is not all that memorable, though Christopher Lee makes a decent villain as always. Herve Villechaize is Lee's sidekick, and is probably the best thing in the film. Plot-wise, Bond learns there is a contract taken out on him, while he has to find a solar-energy disk of some sort. Moore still looks a little uncomfortable and confused about what Bond is supposed to be like. He gets it right in the next film, though.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Please watch this movie with very dark sunglasses on!!!!!!!!
Review: Rodger Moore was good, but that was about it. Christopher Lee should have tried acting in Babe instead of this movie. It would've been better wihtout him!! Knick Knack was ok, but he gets annoying very quickly. Mary Goodnight should have played in The Little Mermaid! Cool gun, bad people. That's all this movie was.
