His daring exploits lead him on a number of incredible chases. As the sexy Solitaire, a young Jane Seymour makes for one of the more memorable Bond girls, and the always captivating Yaphett Kotto delivers an excellent performance as one of the more grounded (and, as such, arguably more chilling) villains of the series. The film’s theme song, Paul McCartney’s “Live and Let Die,” is one of the highlights of the entire Bond music canon and a classic in its own right. [More]

Reviews for Live and Let Die
Less macho than Sean Connery's Bond, Moore's fastidiously dressed 007 survives by his wits and injects more humor into the proceedings.
Moore acquits himself in a larger than life adventure peppered with enjoyably rotten gags and lots of playful action.
One of the last great, funky James Bond films before the eighties brought us a tamer, more plastic Bond.
It can’t quite muster an explosive third act to match previous jaunts, but Moore had got his feet under the table.
I know I probably shouldn't like Live and Let Die, but I do. This crackpot entry, the eighth, in the long-running James Bond series, is figuratively all over the map...[Blu-ray]
Its cheerful racism is overcome by a grand sense of fun and some of Moore's best moments in the franchise.
