Walken made good villain, acting nutty a good bit of the time.Dalton's Bond was quite stiff, the US backing of the muhadjadeen was kinda a flub, as they went on to be worse then the people they were fighting, IMO. still, they added some flavor to this rather dull movie. i did like the new Aston Martin, the old one was getting old and hokey looking. i think they switched Moore to driving a Lotus mostly. i did like the stunts in Living. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />edit: okay, liked Never Say Never Again, was good to see Connery one more time. he looked in shape enough to kick Moore's ass. liked the bike stunts, and the eye candy of Kim Basinger really helped the movie bigtime. the chick on the boat was nice, too. no cool henchman, the villain was rather weak. lacking in certain areas, but not bad. even tho i like Spy Who best, Connery really was the essential Bond. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Licence To Kill, not bad, the one thing was a semi's brake lines get cut it locks up all the brakes it won't just keep going. cocaine mixed with gasoline, yeah, that would work. a halon system woulda been cool in the lab, tho halon does tend to kill people along with the fire, so not used much anymore i think. Q is getting more screen time, cool. Benicio came to a bad end, had a good henchman part, tho he did not get as much screen time as some past henchmen. you're right tho, Dalton lacked a certain zazz in his Bond. Plus he looked like he aged 10 years, not 2 in between his 2 Bond films, for some reason. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />One thing i noticed, they stopped with the cool female lead names, like Pussy Galore and Holly Goodhead, dammit! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
