Adrian S What can I say more than its bond and beyond and I love it Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review nick s The very stuff that makes it a family movie makes it hard to take seriously. The Spy Who Loved Me takes a turn toward the childish with the appearance of the Jaws character. His cartoonish teeth turn out to be his go-to weapon and make for a bunch of silly scenes. On the positive side a number of the set pieces were quite impressive. But they fell into the category of "how can we do something cool" rather than supporting the story. The family friendly vibe was oddly juxtaposed against Barbara Bachs character, who seemed to be taking the plot seriously. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Lucas t this is definitely Mount Rushmore of Bond, Roger is my favourite Bond so why not have one of the best Bond films ever.

I love the set pieces The Villian is Amazing Jaws Is Unforgettable Barbara Bach is the Best bond girl This is the Best bond Movie ever My Favorite Bond movie Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/14/24 Full Review Adi 1 Spy who loved me is probably the best Roger Moore bond film for a number of different reasons like a good plot, action, the bond girl and the tongue and cheek nature of it. Also, it gave us an iconic villain in Jaws. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/25/24 Full Review DanTheMan 2 Despite a myriad of production woes that threatened to torpedo its production, including the financial difficulties and ultimate ousting of poor Harry Saltzman, The Spy Who Loved Me represents a newfound energy for the 007 franchise proving to audiences once and for all that nobody does it better than Sir James Bond. I know I previously singled out On Her Majesty's Secret Service as the best-looking film of the entire franchise, but I'll be damned if this doesn't come in a close second. The scale of the production is enormous, with a returning Lewis Gilbert in the director's chair and he doesn't waste a frame, populating the runtime with exhilarating, high-octane action and gorgeously photographed visuals courtesy of Claude Renoir. Ken Adam's set work is positively superb and genuinely immense, while Marvin Hamlisch delivers a fantastically funky disco-oriented score with elements of classical music. It's a great score and one that's crying out for a proper expanded release given how much of it is unreleased. Roger Moore is on top form throughout and the chemistry he shares with Barbara Bach's Triple X is wonderful; Curt Jürgens certainly makes an impression as Stromberg but is more often than not overshadowed by the colossal Richard Kiel as the ever-iconic and virtually indestructible Jaws, despite his villainous status he's impossible to hate, offering plenty of laughs mixed with a genuine sense of terror, a real gem of the screen. Delivering sleek style, incredible wit and a heartfelt romance, ultimately, The Spy Who Loved Me is the kind of film that can get away with everything and one that truly deserves to.
