A VIEW TO A KILL VIDEO GAME MOVIE
There’s all the makings of a 007 movie but, more importantly, Everything or Nothing didn’t scrimp where it truly counts gameplay.
Well then maybe you shouldn't be living heeeeeeere. We can’t forget Mýa either, nor her high energy theme song that I still remember now. It’s a damn shame we’ll likely never see him cast in a main film but for this, he played Diavolo well. Willem Dafoe’s casting as Diavolo was particularly inspired though. Nadanova and Shannon Elizabeth’s Serena St. Judi Dench, John Cleese, and Richard Kiel returned as M, Q, and Jaws respectively, while fresh faces like Heidi Klum’s Dr. While Nightfire simply used Brosnan’s likeness with a different voice actor, Everything or Nothing brought back the Irish actor one more time, marking his last ever appearance before Daniel Craig took over. It wouldn’t be a Bond film without the star-studded cast, and the game didn’t disappoint. That, and he’s trying to recreate the Soviet Union with the help of Nanobots. Linking back to A View to a Kill, we found Max Zorin’s apprentice, Nikolai Diavolo, seeking revenge on Bond for Zorin’s death. Having worked on GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World is Not Enough, Bruce Fierstein was brought back once again, penning a script fitting that era. Many fans unofficially consider for Everything or Nothing to be Brosnan’s fifth Bond film, and it’s not hard to see why. Excluding spin-offs like 007 Racing, Agent Under Fire was a middling first attempt, though Nightfire brought a considerable improvement. When EA had the Bond licence in the Pierce Brosnan era, 007 got creative. GoldenEye 007 remains the fan favourite, sure, but I’ve always preferred 007’s original experiences to direct adaptations. A View to a Kill was followed by Timothy Dalton’s premiere as Bond in The Living Daylights in 1987.There hasn’t been a James Bond game that captured the superspy’s spirit as perfectly as Everything or Nothing. A view of a killing…a killer view? It doesn’t make much sense, but I love that they try to work it into the script like it does. On a side note, I don’t really get the title. Fortunately, Moore hangs up his 007 status after this movie. If someone like Timothy Dalton or even Daniel Craig had been in the movie, it would hold up much better. The opening sequence is often credited for helping to popularize snowboarding.Ī View to a Kill is a bit of an unfortunate Bond. I do like seeing Bond hitting America every once in a while since it is a change up from his normal locations (and it is always good to see the Dunsmuir House from Phantasm and Burnt Offerings).
The big finale on the Golden Gate Bridge (as promised by the poster) is pretty exciting and worthy of Bond (though not everything has aged well in the world of special effects. The action of the movie is quite strong, but once again ruined by Moore’s age. Tanya Roberts was nominated for a Razzie for Worst Actress.Īsk me if it needs more cowbell one more time, old man!!! The main theme song “A View to a Kill” performed by Duran Duran, and the movie was met with largely negative reviews. Following Octopussy in 1983, the movie is the fourteenth entry in the James Bond franchise and takes its title for a short story in Ian Fleming’s 1960 novel For Your Eyes Only. Bond discover that Zorin has a mad plan for Silicon Valley and thousands and thousands could be kills if he succeeds.ĭirected by John Glen, A View to a Kill is a James Bond 007 spy action-thriller. Bond finds himself on his way to California and teamed with a woman named Stacey Sutton (Tanya Roberts) who has her own bone to pick with Zorin. When Godfrey is killed, Bond sets out to take down Zorin. He and his henchman Mayday (Grace Jones) have drawn the attention of MI-6, and James Bond (Roger Moore) and Sir Godfrey Tibbett (Patrick Macnee) have been assigned to investigate it. Seriously, Grandpa…back off (and what where your eyes are lookin’)Īn industrialist named Max Zorin (Christopher Walken) has a plan.
