Poor Timothy Dalton. They come up with one of the best actors in years to play James Bond and they don't know what to do with him. This movie is all wrong for Dalton.
Rating:  -
Ok, here's my opinion. The film is absolutely incredible. In fact, it may be the best pre Casino Royale Bond film. On the other hand, the edition annoys a little bit. First of all, we all know what Bond is about, saving the world, using a bunch of gadgets, and wooing a girl or two along the way. This film basically comprises all the elements, and the sexual content was refreshingly GONE from this film. Unfortunately, the DVD makers had to throw in all those stupid "shadow" people on the menu, and that really made the experience worse for me. (Do we really need to see that? What does that even have to do with the film?)
I guess in the end though, this was a stellar effort, the acting was wonderful, the action was wonderful, and many of the sequences seemed like they came right out of Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Overall a must see, (where this edition does shine is in picture and video, which was unbeatable.)

Some spoilers perhaps!
Being the most surreal entry in the Bond franchise, LALD only used about half of Ian Fleming's novel to make up the script. The rest was recycled into Licence to Kill and, although different actors assume the role, it can be seen as an interesting companion-piece due to the many similarities. But don't let that put you off. The low-Box Office was simply because they never made a great poster, changed the title during production and it did have to face-off against the uber-popular Batman in that particular summer.
As a 10-year-old kid, when I finally did see it (on pan and scan video!) I was surprised to learn that it was rated 15, something that no other Bond film was. Instantly I knew that this promised more gore and nastier deaths and that it was excuse to finally journey into Bond's dark side. He'd been too clean-cut for a while and needed to get rough and tumble.
When CIA Agent pal Felix Leiter is mauled by a shark and his wife murdered right after their wedding (think of Bond and Tracy Di Vicenzo in OHMSS) Bond goes renegade and plans to bring to justice heartless cocaine kingpin Franz Sanchez in a clever Yojimbo way. This takes Bond to Mexico (most of LTK is shot on location instead of the usual fake-locations somewhere in England) where he and gorgeous CIA babe Pam Bouvier (who I had a big crush on as a kid) team up to bring Sanchez's empire down from the inside.
Dalton never really got enough time to really shine as Bond, which is a shame since he is light-years ahead of Pierce Brosnan. He is simultaneously sophisticated and rough, calculating and impulsive. LTK showed a side to his character that we'd not seen before. As much as I like Roger Moore, you'd never see him pitching Benicio Del Toro into a cocaine grinder or incinerating Robert Davi.
For some reason, John Barry passed on this movie (he'd scored 14 Bonds previously) and the scoring duties were left to Michael Kamen. Not only was Dalton taking Bond in a new direction but Kamen took the sound of the film to another (not necessarily better) interesting level. It's a shame it's not available on CD as it's really something. Even if it does sound a bit too much like Die Hard sometimes.
I feel that LTK has a bad rep and it really doesn't deserve it. In fact it's up there with the best Bond entries and no one should really turn their nose up at it.
This new Ultimate Edition DVD has a striking 2.40:1 transfer and a brilliant new DTS 5.1 sound design. Extras are plentiful and interesting.

After reading the reviews on here i went and rented this movie license to kill with high hopes and expectations. Needless to say that i was let down.
This Bond movie is about one of James Bonds best friends get put in the hospital while his wife is killed. So James goes on a revenge rampage defying M and MI-6 to do so.
I thought that it sounded cool but it was a drag. It started out GREAT with a lot of action and a solid plot. But as the movie progressed it got REALLY slow. And the end is so fake and hookey that it comes off as comical. This is the worst Bond film of all time! It isnt worth even your time.
Now dont get me wrong i LOVE the James Bond series. And no-one can even come close to remotly compare with Shawn Conry! He is the only TRUE Bond! But the other Bond movies are all good. In fact this is the only Bond movie that ive seen that i didnt like. Just dont even bother wasting your time.

Licence to Kill is a classic Bond film with Timothy Dalton reprising his role as 007 in this fast-paced/action packed film. There are is little room for boredom when it comes to watching this movie. Timothy Dalton excels in his role that he has made even more interesting since his last performance on "The Living Daylights". Robert Davi makes a great villain for the film. It was a surprise to see a young Del Toro in this film. Overall, a really must have film for fans of action and especially of Bond, James Bond.
