This was the first James Bond adventure produced after the success of Star Wars, so it jumped on the sci-fi bandwagon by combining the suave appeal of Agent 007 (once again played by Roger Moore) with enough high-tech hardware and special effects to make Luke Skywalker want to join Her Majesty's Secret Service. After the razzle-dazzle of The Spy Who Loved Me, this attempt to latch onto a trend proved to be a case of overkill, even though it brought back the steel-toothed villain Jaws (Richard Kiel) and scored a major hit at the box office. This time Bond is up against a criminal industrialist named Drax (Michel Lonsdale) who wants to control the world from his orbiting space station. In keeping with his well-groomed style, Bond thwarts this maniacal Neo-Hitler's scheme with the help of a beautiful, sleek-figured scientist (played by Lois Chiles with all the vitality of a department-store mannequin). There's a grand-scale climax involving space shuttles and ray guns, but despite the film's popular success, this is one Bond adventure that never quite gets off the launching pad. It's as if the caretakers of the James Bond franchise had forgotten that it's Bond--and not a barrage of gizmos and gadgets (including a land-worthy Venetian gondola)--that fuels the series' success. Despite Moore's passive performance (which Pauline Kael described as "like an office manager who is turning into dead wood but hanging on to collect his pension"), Moonraker had no problem attracting an appreciative audience, and there are even a few renegade Bond-philes who consider it one of their favorites. --Jeff Shannon

It's hard for me to argue with people who hate Moonraker. It is the most cartoonish of all the Bond movies reaching its peak of silliness right off the bat with Jaws, returning from The Spy Who Loved Me, surviving a freefall from an airplane. The absurdity is made all the more tragic in that it follows one of, if not the most spectacular Bond opening in the entire series. Moonraker is a movie with sky high highlights and some pretty bad lowlights. The pre-credit sequence with Bond being shoved from ... Read More

In a word: outtathisworld! Forget what the Bond "purists" say. None of the films was particularly faithful to Fleming anyhow. "Moonraker" opens with arguably the best pre-credit sequence ever and segues effortlessly from one action set piece to another. Taken on its own terms, "Moonraker" features F/X that hold up even today (well, except for the laser beams). The major flaw is that Lois Chiles Holly Goodhead never lives up to her name. That's it for my "Moonraker" review but I will return in "For Your ... Read More

In moonraker the action packed sequel and continuation of the spy who loved me James bound must stop a mad man who has stolen moonraker a us space shuttle from wiping out all man kind with and orb filled with a leathal flower particles. The first set of with a new bad guy for the first in the film history of Bond Spector was not the villains reposible for this crime. Infact after this film none of the spector members are seen again expect for blowfield in the beginning of your eyes only. Even though he ... Read More

This is the point where the Bond franchise took a silly turn. Obviously inspired by the phenomenal success of the sci-fi fantasy "Star Wars", James Bond was launched into space. "Moonraker" is so crammed with space hardware and overblown gadgetry that it's barely about Bond at all; the producers lost focus on the main subject, almost parodying him.
The criminal industrialist Drax is just another loony-as-a-bedbug power-mad villain cut from the same clothe as the previous Bond baddies. One of the most ... Read More

The first time I watched Moonraker I was honestly blown away by the large scaleness of this Bond film - keeping in tradition with the prior The Spy Who Loved Me film. The locations and variety of suspense and action was one-of-a-kind, but upon a few more viewings, I began to see where it all started to go wrong. For such a big film, this is perhaps oe of the laziest Bond films ever made. Roger Moore isn't the only one at fault here - even the Bond girl and main villain seem to be sleeping on the job.
