Nikt nie zrobi tego lepiej niż Bond. Po raz kolejny Roger Moore wciela się w postać super agenta w eksplodującej akcją przygodzie, poczynając od egipskich piramid, poprzez dno oceanu aż po nieprawdopodobne popisy narciarskie. Razem z piękną rosyjską agentką Anyą Amasovą (Barbara Bach) stara się unieszkodliwić bezwzględnego Stromberga (Curd Jürgens) i zapobiec jego szaleńczemu pomysłowi unicestwienia świata.

The change of director was a good decision and moved the franchise closer to the eighties as well. Bond stopped making stupid jokes and started playing a real agent, women dress much more daringly than ever before, there’s plenty of technology, and no shortage of refined shots of sunsets. The cold and intimate spy thrillers have turned into full-fledged eye-candy spectacle, without losing any of the traditional values and attributes that make Bond Bond. By far the best Moore film to this day.

007__#10__I don't really like Roger Moore much in his later Bond films, maybe he should have quit sooner, especially in the last episodes it was clear that he doesn't have it anymore and his fights are more for laughs (I miss Connery and his brisk duels). That said, he's still pretty cool in this episode. Just like the whole film, packed with imaginative action and with a little bonus on top in the form of an amazing Bond amphibian and one of the prettiest Bond-girls in Agent Amasa. And most importantly, when I'm filthy rich, I want Jaws as my bodyguard. He's just incredibly cool, definitely the best sidekick in the entire Bond franchise.

I never really liked Roger Moore's Bond. To this day he still seems like an old man (you can see it well in fights that were infinitely more brisk in Connery's performance), but on the other hand, I have always appreciated his perspective and excellent sense of self-irony. And I really loved The Spy Who Loved Me as a kid, and with a little bit of nostalgia, I still like it today. The script is really good, Jaws is a scumbag, Barbara Bach is gorgeous, and the action sequences have flair and wit (especially the one with the car-submarine). This Bond movie has everything I love about agent 007 - an engaging story, power disputes, a perverted villain, perspective, and a tolerable dose of naivety (e.g., Moore's ridiculous "skiing" in front of the screen). The only thing missing for the last star is the only true Bond – Sean Connery.

Another quality Moor Bond film, even one of the best ones. 007 is not only a sexual, joke-spouting machine, but the film shows him much more as a soldier (probably because of the officer's uniform he puts on a few times). The opening ski chase is well filmed (though not as long or as entertaining as the one from For Your Eyes Only), and I really like the whole part set in Egypt (the cameraman did a great job) + the music from Lawrence of Arabia used in it. The ending in the tanker is a brisk, originally-filmed action full of gunshots, explosions and angry hijacked and kidnapping sailors. What I really liked was the quick handling of the villain. No speeches, no talking points, blah, blah, blah, Mr. Bond, just fast action and saving the Bond girl (the very, very pretty Barbara Bach). Four pure stars.

The three-year hiatus swiftly aided this and even though the script, suffering from about a dozen rewrites this time around, is truly lame, The Spy Who Loved Me has become for me a top 3 representative of the current trio of Bonds. Sharing second to third place with On Her Majesty's Secret Service and trailing behind Goldfinger. This is mainly due to the production team's respect for the work of production designer Ken Adam, after whose painstaking and unceasing work on all the previous installments was given a blank check to create the exteriors and interiors and was thus able to go all out, both in creativity and in all his grandeur. So whether its the Eisenstein-inspired office of the KGB general, the secret British Secret Service base under Abu Simbel, the monstrous tanker-submarine, or the famed construction of the submarine Atlantis, they all retain exactly the creative period esprit of technological advancement combined with innovative design for which Bond films are famous. Plus, the closing submarine love nest is one of the coziest spots on the movie screen, where I could easily hump for days. This time, you really can cheerfully ignore the lame old man in the jacket and his rubber plaything trying to convince you of something she can't even pronounce. Because here above all you can enjoy to the fullest the environment where it takes place and the wild action scenes, where no expense was spared. The Leicester cinema where the film was screened on opening night with the assistance of Prince Charles knows a thing or two about that, where the entire cast stood in silent awe during the opening jump off the mountain.

Roger Moore at his best, dropping zingers left and right. The writer was able to deliver the material in time for the filming, so the necessary final touches were made before shooting, and everything finally got back on track. Plus, the film features Richard Kiel for the first time, an underwater car, and a Soviet agent whose ‘death wish’ turns into a ‘sex wish’ under Bond's influence.

It's well known that films with Roger Moore tend to play more on a humorous note. That kind of delivery suits him well. However, The Spy Who Loved Me can be a bit silly in places, and the humor can feel a bit forced or even intrusive at times. It's balanced by interesting characters and gadgets, with Jaws standing out among henchmen like Tee Hee, Nick Nack, and Oddjob. The Egyptian artifacts really contribute to the exotic atmosphere. There are indeed some great gadgets here - the submarine is excellent - but unfortunately, that doesn't mean the overall impression is that great. It’s good, it’s cool, but it’s not excellent. On the other hand, it's an undemanding spectacle with interesting settings that you won't mind watching on television.
