Marco L (CASTELLANO) Octopussy ofrece lo que se espera de una película de James Bond: acción trepidante, chicas deslumbrantes y gadgets ingeniosos. Sin embargo, el paso del tiempo es evidente, especialmente en un Roger Moore que ya no parece tan cómodo en las escenas más físicas, lo que resta algo de frescura a la película. La trama, con su mezcla de espionaje internacional y villanos excéntricos, es entretenida pero carece de la chispa y la intriga que caracterizaron entregas anteriores. Aun así, la película brilla en sus secuencias de acción, destacando el espectacular trabajo aéreo en la escena de los pre-créditos y un clímax que mantiene la tensión hasta el final. Si bien la narrativa puede resultar confusa en algunos momentos y el humor se siente algo forzado, Octopussy cumple su cometido como un pasatiempo ligero dentro de la saga Bond. No es la más memorable, pero sigue siendo una aventura disfrutable para los fans del género. (ENGLISH) Octopussy delivers what you'd expect from a James Bond film: fast-paced action, stunning women, and clever gadgets. However, the passage of time is evident, especially with Roger Moore looking less comfortable in the more physical scenes, which takes away some of the film's freshness. The plot, blending international espionage and eccentric villains, is entertaining but lacks the spark and intrigue of earlier installments. Still, the film shines in its action sequences, particularly the spectacular aerial stunts in the pre-credit scene and a climax that keeps the tension high until the end. While the narrative can feel confusing at times and the humor seems somewhat forced, Octopussy fulfills its role as a light, enjoyable addition to the Bond saga. It's not the most memorable, but it remains a fun adventure for fans of the genre. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/25 Full Review Audience Member It certainly isn't Shakespeare, but I really enjoyed watching it! To me, it is an underrated Bond! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/25 Full Review Craig S Without a doubt, the worst James Bond movie ever made, though it has plenty of competition, beginning with every picture starring Roger Moore. I can understand why viewers might prefer one film or another, but not how professional critics give these movies such favorable reviews or rank them as they do. Someone on Esquire posted an article recently listing all 25 of the Bond films, and actually thought it was the eighth best in the series, ahead of Dr. No, No Time to Die, and Spectre. I think giving it one star is being generous. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/01/25 Full Review Gerald H this is a really bad bond-movie … the whole berlin-circus segment is one of the worst scenes ever. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Mike P Great James Bond adventure, (in spite of the cheesy title)...It's definitely above average for the Roger Moore entries, and the 007 Franchise as a whole. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Paul T It’s James Bond ! So immediately it’s a good film I mean you got top quality action you got a guy flying a jet through a building being chased by a Missile then blowing it up and driving to a gas station! Immediately you know this is no low budget action film this is James Bond , Now times change in the 60’s it was all sex serious action but in the early 80’s we liked a bit of humour and action and Roger Moore camps it up brilliantly bringing his wit and comes across as the ultimate English gentleman , This film is not in the top 10 Bond films but there’s no shame in that since they are a hard act to follow but this is one of the better Bonds films but there’s only 1 real bad one anyway ie Die another Day ! But this is a good solid Bond film and after the last one which was more serious they decided to go all action ! I mean he runs through the jungle and gets attacked by a tiger a snake spiders and a crocodile all in 5 minutes! It’s a bit like Temple of Doom in that respect complete with bizarre native food , Now if ya gonna rate films out of 100% you gotta realise anything under 50% is rubbish! And this film is not rubbish in fact it gets a solid 77% every time because it’s a good Bond film , It’s not a great Bond film it’s not in the top 10 but it’s not in the bottom either , As action films go you must say wow I’ve never seen that before ! And that alone is worth points ! A plane flying through a building ! Guys running on the top of trains guys fighting on the top of planes ! A circus! A Russian villain it’s got a lot going for it , So if you don’t like it , It’s not because it’s a bad film it’s just you don’t like 1980’s James Bond but that is more about you than this film . I mean the people who write reviews on Rotten tomatoes weren’t probably around when Rambo 2 and Octopussy came out because if they were they would know these films were huge hits for a reason because this ain’t Shakespeare here it’s a action film and needs to be judged by the standards of all action films from the 1980’s and if you do that ya like hey that’s pretty good isn’t it !
