Watch Licence to Kill For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Absolutely Brilliant!

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

It has a strong story line and grit that breaks away from the 'Roger Moore era' descent into farce - he was a lovely guy, an excellent actor and did a good job with the material he was given, but the material was a bit of a travesty of the 007 legacy. What is more, Carey Lowell is among my favourite Bond girls. She brought character and attitude that made a terrific contrast to Talita Soto's sultry ornamental role, but I thought she was great to look at too - definitely my type of gal :o)

From a retrospective perspective, Licence to Kill is probably the most divisive and most controversial James Bond film, 1987's THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS saw Bond reinvented into a more darker and serious series with Timothy Dalton in the leading role, this film saw a more violent take. this being the only James Bond film to be given a 15 certificate in the UK and had to have many cuts made The plot is fairly simple, James Bond goes rogue and after a escaped Drug baron Franz Sanchez (Played with menace by the fantastic Robert Davi) after his friend Felix Leiter is maimed, the plot and visuals feel more akin to an long lost TV miniseries, the story, camera-work and colours all feel more akin to Television, however the familiar 007 feel spices the plot.Timothy Dalton feels more comfortable in the role in comparison to THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS, the leading ladies played by Carey Lowell and Talisa Soto are two of the hottest girls, the former of which is given a good personality.Michael Kamens score is great, giving a more darker feel to the film, Gladys Knights theme however is slightly a mixed bag, mainly being a rehash of previous Bond themes, Patti Labelles R&B Ballad 'If You Asked Me To' is used for the end credits, the song mostly is decent, however slightly dates the film.Unfortunately, Licence To Kill remains the lowest grossing Bond film, mainly due its poor marketing as well as it being released at the same time as a bunch of other summer blockbusters such as BATMAN, INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, GHOSTBUSTERS II and LETHAL WEAPON 2.Licence To Kill is a great Bond film, its darker, more 80s thriller tone makes it stand out among its predecessors and successors, the villains are dastardly and their deaths are gory. however after the film was released, the series fell into legal difficulties, leaving Bond off the big screen until 1995's GOLDENEYE which saw 007 come back with a new face.

Licence to Kill is easily one of the best and one of my favorite Bond films. Timothy Dalton was very good in portraying 007 in his rogue mission where he seeks vengeance. Despite being a unique film the supporting cast and action sequences make it extremely enjoyable and brings a lot of action that was somewhat absent in the Moore years. The villain, a drug lord, was very good at getting out the best in Bond. The Bond girl was a unique and interesting story line was used where she herself was an agent and didn't want Bond's help. However they both help each other. It's interesting to see the evolution of Bond girls over time from helpless creatures to independent agents or women capable of holding their own. This would make for interesting articles perhaps. While Lois Chiles portrayed this in Moonraker it was not as convincing as Pam Bouvier's Carey. Bond needed her help to survive almost as much as she needed his and it was almost balanced because this is a Bond film. Jump to the 21st century and the Bond girls are almost equals if not equal to Bond himself. They say a Bond film is only as good as its villain but perhaps a Bond is his best with a Bond girl that brings out the best in him. Desmond's Q gave a great performance as Q who had a larger role than ever before being involved in the actual case rather than just supply the gadgets. The action and stunts performed were excellent and Timothy portrayed Bond well as a tough and tactful 007. It also gave us a more vulnerable and humane Bond who was upset and cared about avenging his friend. Many say he comes the closest to Ian Fleming's image of Bond.

Timothy Dalton's second Bond appearance after THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS is a surprising, at times rip-roaring thriller with a mean, cold and dark heart that will make it of instant appeal to older and wiser fans. Dalton was always uncomfortable with the lesser, more kiddie-oriented side of the Bond films, and that edginess is apparent here, yet strangely it adds to his charisma. Dalton was the actor who went back to the Fleming books to offer a darker, more ruthless hero who was far closer to the original source material than either Connery or Moore. As a result his Bond is the most interesting, character-driven of the entire film series, and Dalton constantly shines when on screen.The first half an hour of this movie goes into some very dark territory, with violent mutilation, ruthless killing, and an excellent jailbreak sequence. Throughout the film there is plenty of action, from classic opening fight sequences (love the electric eel tank) to a climatic truck chase which is fantastic, effects filled entertainment in the days before CGI went along and ruined things (although you have to allow for a little cheesy blue screen work, after all it was the '80s). Some of the stunts and images at the film's climax clearly inspired the following year's DIE HARD 2 – you'll know them when you see them.The film's biggest fault is a slightly stodgy middle, in which an undercover Bond is dragged down in failed assassination attempts and a general lethargy only heightened by some inspired torture/violence. Anthony Zerbe is on the sidelines as a superbly slimy villain and his death sequence the most graphically gruesome of the films. Robert Davi is the hulking bad guy and his performance here is unforgettable, the best '80s villain that the Bond films were given. As for the female interest, Carey Lowell is both attractive and intelligent, and sassy with it, making her one of the better additions, whilst Talisa Soto lends some sultry exotic charm. The film is particularly good for supporting roles, with a young Benicio del Toro scoring points as an absolutely loathsome henchman and David Hedison as Leiter. Also we get Everett McGill as another memorable bad guy. Desmond Llewelyn has plenty of screen time, and some great laughs in this one. LICENCE TO KILL is one of my favourite Bond films of all time.
