Summary: Moore's Best Performance
Review: Roger Moore could not have played James Bond any better in his fifth entry to the 007 series. This film returns to the style of Ian Fleming and the style of Bond Connery portrayed in the 60's. Moore has lost alot of the cheesy humor that was overused in the disastrous Moonraker. He is much tougher and a little less suave than usual, and this combination makes for a great character. Moore is supported by a great cast and some excellent locations throughout the movie.FYEO returns to the fight between the East and the West, this time fighting to recover an advanced computer piece. Excellent scenes were filmed as Moore fought his way through some excellent ski scenes as well as some very cool scuba sequences on the ocean floor that eventually lead to an action packed climax on a magnificent mountaintop. FYEO is Moore's best outing, and a close second is Live and Let Die. This movie is also as close to Connery's style as Moore ever came, and the job he does with the character is just astounding.

Summary: Average- 2.5 stars
Review: Many people liked this because it went back to Fleming formula. True, but this is the most boring and uninteresting Bond film ever (despite fantastic action scenes). Moore should have been replace for this film for one. He lumbers in a daze throughout it. BLAND. If only there was more wit and punch (like Thunderball, Goldfinger, and OHMSS) this would have been excellent.

Summary: For No One
Review: Roger Moore as a Bond for the Reagan years -- a waxy, vacant dummy with dyed hair and rouge on his cheeks, faking various macho poses in close-up while the stunt man does all the real work. The rugged locations and well-crafted plot are reminders of this series' great early years, but the producers made a big mistake when they scaled this Bond movie back to human size... they no longer had a human to play him.

Summary: My second favorite 007 of Moore's
Review: For Your Eyes Only is my second favorite Bond film of Roger Moore's.(right behind The Spy Who Loved Me)It has a beautiful Bond girl named Melina,who is out to avenge her family.She is played by Carole Bouqet.The villain Kristatos(I was actually suprised to find out he was the villain!),played by Julian Glover,is a good one.The rest of the cast is very good,too.There was a lot of action and not as many gadgets.I loved the ski chase scenes(actually more than the ones in The Spy Who Loved Me,and a LOT more than the ones in A View to a Kill),and the locations were beautiful.The musical score by Bill Conti is excellent,and the title song,sung by Sheena Easton,is my personal favorite.The DVD is excellent,with tons of extras,and a very sharp picture and good sound.

Summary: YOUR EYES WILL ENJOY THIS BOND CLASSIC.
Review: Moore is back with this fast paced well written movie. Its full of fun and smart action scenes. The cast of characters were put together well, and the movie moves at a good pace from beginning to end. Not much work for "Q" in this movie, Bond uses his wits and not the gadgets to get out of touble in this film. The opening scene did not do much for me with the helicopter, and I didnt much care tor the title song either. This is one of Moore's best, and his films slowly begin to take a turn for a worse after this one. Your sure to enjoy this classic Moore OO7. ENJOY!

Summary: Roger Moore's "From Russia With Love"
Review: "For Your Eyes Only" abandons the high tech gadgetry and focuses on story, suspence and even romance. This is Moore's best performance as Bond as he relies more on his wits and bravery than gadgets and one liners. Not only one of the best Moore Bonds but also one of the best Bonds all together.

Summary: "Eyes" Front
Review: "For Your Eyes Only" should be for anyone's eyes, but doesn't have the staying power of earlier Bond films. This Roger Moore entry into the Bond canon provokes the most disagreement from fans, who consider it possibly Moore's finest outing as Bond, but consider the film to be surprisingly lackluster. A Cold War espionage tale (a nuclear launch device is being sought by the Russians), is cooked together with elements of "The Guns of Navarone"(to be supplied by a Greek magnate), is spiced with some exciting but physically impossible stunting (Bond outruns his enemies by making a wreck of the Winter Olympics), sprinkled with a fine powder of amazingly attractive women (what else?), and the viewer is left---not quite satisfied. Perhaps the main problem is the aging Moore, who, even at his best, could never exhibit the sophisticated dangerousness of Sean Connery. Has anyone ever noticed that only Moore, of all the Bonds, is blond? Unlike his predecessor (and his successors) Moore could never glower threateningly. He needs to do so, badly, in this film, if only to capture the Cold War grittiness of "From Russia With Love." Moore's inability to project deadliness is the curse of his Bond films, but "For Your Eyes Only" evens the score by assembling a fine cast, including Topol, as a friendly villain. Caroline Bouquet plays Melina Havelock, a crossbow-toting beauty with hair a la Crystal Gayle. Lynn-Holly Johnson plays a hyperhormonal teenage figure skater who is probably the only girl whom Bond ever sends home before daybreak...and too bad...and once again, too Roger Moore.

Summary: Eyes Only 007
Review: Stunt, after stunt, after stunt obliterates this film's attempt to return the James Bond series to its original origins. Roger Moore gives a competent performance as 007 but the physical stunts that he is supposedly performing defy credibility. It is interesting how the level of physical stunts that James Bond is required to perform increases proportionally with Roger Moore's age with each new film. The first two thirds of the film are good. However, the film falls asleep in the third. When you've seen one impregnable mountaintop fortress, you've seen 'em all. Bill Conti's disco score actually helped this film along the way giving it some energy and drive. It is in the final third of the film that Conti returns to a more traditional orchestral scoring which only contributed to the anti climatic finale. The sinking of the St. Georges, the attack on Kristatos' warehouse and Bond kicking Locque's car, with Locque still inside, off the cliff were high points that were excellently filmed.

Summary: Roger Moore At His Best in "For Your Eyes Only"
Review: "For Your Eyes Only" is the twelfth entry in the James Bond series and is the fifth outing for Roger Moore as the British superspy. It was decided in this feature to return to a storyline that emphasized Bond's physical and mental prowess and reduced the use of various spy gadgets to a minimum. The premise of the movie is also more realistic than in the past, harking as far back as "From Russia With Love". The story involves the apparently accidental sinking of a British spy ship off the coast of Albania. This in itself might not have been a great concern except the ship carried a communications device called ATAC which can direct British submarine-launched missiles and the man who was leading the ATAC recovery effort is killed by a Spanish hitman. Bond's assignment is a simple one, find out who hired the hitman and why. Bond soon finds out that his mission will be far from simple particularly when murdered man's daughter Melina is seeking to avenge his death and it appears that the Soviets are somehow getting involved. To succeed, Bond must seperate friend from foe and at the same time prevent Melina's vendetta long enough to do so. The casting for "For Your Eyes Only" is excellent all the way around with French actor Carole Bouquet playing Melina, famed British actor Julian Glover playing the sauve Kristatos and Topol of "Fiddler on the Roof" fame playing the Greek smuggler Columbo. Most of the series regulars such as Lois Maxwell and Desmond Llewelyn returned but unfortunately, actor Bernard Lee passed away before production began and as a tribute to him, his character "M" was not recast, the only time in the series "M" has not appeared on-screen. As a side note, an actor with a brief role in this movie was Cassandra Harris, who happened to be the wife of the man who would eventually assume the mantle of James Bond, Irish actor Pierce Brosnan. The script of "For Your Eyes Only" would for the first time since "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" feature a Bond denuded of his gadgets. This point is emphasized by the loss of his trademark Lotus early in the film and his reliance of his own abilities to get him through the tight spots. This allowed Roger Moore, for once, shed his "wooden Bond" persona, and he gave his best acting performance out of all his Bond outings. Here, Bond fans get to see a wider range of emotions from their hero, particularly the cold-bloodedness of Bond when he has a killer of one of his colleagues at his mercy. The tone of this story is not entirely serious. The car and ski chase scenes are not only performed in their usual, entertaining manner but are also done with a firm tongue-in-cheek. The opening sequence of the movie is also amusing, featuring Bond's old foe Blofeld for a brief uncredited cameo. The scenes featuring Bond and the over-eager ice skater Bibi Dahl (played by Lynn-Holly Johnson) are priceless, perhaps the only time we see an embarassed and uncomfortable James Bond on-screen. There is plenty of drama though, include several excellent underwater confrontations and perhaps one of the most diabolical methods of killing Bond yet devised, originally written by Ian Fleming in his novel "Live and Let Die", where he and Melina are to be used by the villian as bait while trolling for sharks. The tension-filled scenes of Bond scaling a mountain face are also quite excellent. Of the different video versions of the film this reviewer has seen, the special-edition DVD by MGM is by far the best. Not only is the print and soundtrack of excellent quality, the DVD is two commentary audio tracks and lots of documentary material. This DVD is a must-have for any James Bond fan or for that matter, any fan of the spy film genre. Not only is it arguably the best Bond film starring Roger Moore but it is an atypical Bond film for its era. Don't miss out this one!
