It seems that this is a bad movie to Bond fans but IMO, I really liked this movie and it is one of my favorites. I know Roger looked very old, I know Bond in bed with May Day is disturbing, I know Tanya Roberts cannot act (At least she was hot), but Christopher Walken is, in my opinion, the best villain in the franchise. He's psychotic (He guns down all of his miners in the mine while laughing like a maniac) and I liked the Golden Gate Bridge fight and of course what he says after gunning down his miners. "Good, right on SHedule" LOL
