Frank 10/12/2022 The usual unbelevable mess James gets into, with an inevitable bruised and lacerated successful result. Acting is superb to point of making the crazy show believable!

This was the movie which began to undermine the Bond movie franchise. Sad - the beginning of the slippery slope. They may have made lots of money subsequently but they lost the magic.

And the story elements were a little cliche. However the acting was excellent and really elevated the production.

Timothy Dalton delivers a brooding, emotionally charged performance that gives the world’s most famous spy a welcome edge, even if the film’s violent tone divided traditionalists. Review: In his second and final outing as 007, Timothy Dalton strips Bond down to his ruthless core, setting aside the quips and cocktail glamour for a story fueled by betrayal and vengeance. When Felix Leiter is brutalized by a drug lord, Bond goes rogue — and License to Kill follows suit, ditching the glossy espionage formula for something more visceral and dangerous. Director John Glen delivers high-octane set pieces — from a fiery tanker chase to underwater brawls — but it’s Dalton’s intensity that anchors the chaos. The film’s realism and emotional stakes were ahead of their time, paving the way for the grittier Bond reboots that would follow decades later. While some purists missed the old charm, License to Kill remains a bold, underrated entry in the Bond canon — one that reminds us that sometimes, the world’s greatest spy is also its most dangerous man.
