Review of Moonraker

Moonraker (1979)
7/10
Ridiculous but also lots of fun
15 February 2022
Moonraker pushes the absurdity and humour of the Moore era to it's breaking point but it's also always a lot of fun to watch and has plenty of imagination. Roger Moore is still a ridiculously charming Bond who is a lot more active and in control in this one.

Michaël Lonsdale is solid Bond villain and Lois Chiles is one of the better and more capable Bond girls. Lewis Gilbert proves that once again he is extremely capable at directing the more epic Bond adventures. The song by Shirley Bassey is good if a little forgettable.
