Live and Let Die (2012 Version)
Get Moore!
In Roger Moore's first outing as 007, he investigates the murders of three
fellow agents, he soon finds himself a target, evading vicious assassins as he
closes in on the powerful Kananga (Yaphet Kotto).
Known on the streets as “Mr. Big,” Kananga is coordinating a globally
threatening scheme using tons of self-produced heroin. As Bond tries to unravel
the mastermind's plan, he meets Solitaire (Jane Seymour), the beautiful Tarot
card reader whose magical gifts are crucial to the crime lord. Bond, of course,
works his own magic on her, and the stage is set for a series of pulse-pounding
action sequences involving voodoo, hungry crocodiles and turbo-charged
speedboats.
Critic Reviews:
- " There are some splendid action sequences, notably a speedboat leap
that set a new world record, as well as the usual array of hi-tech gadgetry.
" – Tom Hutchinson
- " Two hours long and anti-climactic, but Bond fans won't be
disappointed. " – Verina Glaessner
- " Live and Let Die has been especially well photographed and edited, and
it makes clever and extensive use of its good title song, by Paul and Linda
McCartney. " – Roger Greenspun
