**Excellent Bond film.** Superior Bond film with Christopher Lee as an assassin who sets his sights on Sir Roger Moore. Big mistake! A fast moving entry from Guy Hamilton that has lovely locations, incredible stunts - (The car flip has yet to be bettered) sexy ladies, a great theme tune, the return of the hilarious Sheriff J W Pepp...

I write this with the understanding that I am not supposed to like it. It's one of the movies that, in serious Bond fandom, you aren't supposed to like. And, that is because, yeah, the script sort of really sucks... and I'm not going to defend it. They could have done a far better job. However, it's still a fun movie. It's Moore era...

This was an unfinished work by Ian Fleming. So there was even more leeway than usual. However, that matters little to a viewer.

The "golden gun" of Christopher Lee is a speciall...

The Man with the Golden Gun isn't generally considered to be a good film but I enjoy it despite its many flaws.
