Moonraker (1979)
8/10
The natural successor to "The Spy Who Loved Me"
14 March 2020
"Moonraker" is definitely an underestimated instalment of the Bond franchise. It's a natural successor to "The Spy Who Loved Me" and shares the same epic scale and sense of fun. The first three quarters of this film are magnificent; only when the story transfers to space does the action become less engaging.

It's a beautifully shot adventure which moves at a cracking pace with many memorable scenes.

Covering several exotic locations in seven countries and featuring one of the most ambitious pre-credits scenes ever attempted, this is true escapism.

Corinne Cléry is one of the most beautiful Bond girls, playing the ill-fated Corinne Dufour.

8 out of 10. Tremendously entertaining.
