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 ! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Kyle C I never thought I'd say this. But Octopussy IS HORRIBLE!!! I HATED THIS MOVIE Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/14/24 Full Review alan g Tepid movie but the best Bond movie intro ever. Childish plot. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/10/24 Full Review Benjamin H Although it has some decent action towards the end with some sprints of charms here and there, Octopussy is overall a tired, uninteresting and choppy Bond film that is substantially devoid of personality with poor character handling. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review Adi 1 This is one of the most jokey films in the entire franchise but at the same time it relishes it in that sense. Even though Roger Moore was too old at this time and the finale could have been much better. Overall, an okay movie. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
