Audience Reviews for The Spy Who Loved Me

• Nov 19, 2015

  A top-shelf return to the hard-charging action and cheeky humor that defined the 007 franchise, this Spy game boasts much to love even though it set up a slippery slope of series tropes that brought about absurdity in some of the later chapters. The best of Roger Moore's very different take on the super spy made famous by Sean Connery, The Spy Who Loved Me perfectly walks the fine line between serious and silly by putting story at the forefront. Oh, it's not without some choppy waters (doesn't Curd Jurgens' megalomaniacal oceanographer Stromberg know that nuking the land means polluting the waters too?), but the dynamic between Bond and the woman (Barbara Bach, beautifully playing Bond's equal) whose lover he killed makes for some great interplay. In this PG-rated spy adventure, James Bond (Moore) investigates the hijacking of British and Russian submarines carrying nuclear warheads with the help of a KGB agent (Bach) whose lover he killed. The set design and set pieces remain some of the series' best, and the opening sequence ranks as Bond's best before Spectre came along. Also, steel-toothed oak Jaws makes for a henchman for the ages and the locations (especially the pyramids in Egypt) underlay the awesome importance of location, location, location in this franchise. Sadly, save for a rare exception (For Your Eyes Only), this film charts the highest peak that the franchise would reach for quite sometime. Bottom line: Nobody Does It Better

  Connery started out with three fantastic Bond films and it seems as though Roger Moore did as well. I think it's quite clear that The Spy Who Loved Me is the biggest Bond film to date yet (1977). Traveling to deserts and oceans across the globe to go along with having the most explosive and destructive climax of the series, this film is first actual blockbuster in Bond's history. The plot deals with yet another villain wanting to change the course of the world living secluded in a mysteriously unique construct. Seriously, I feel like 85% of the Bond films have this plot. Anyways Bond is after stolen submarines that may contain nuclear weapons along with the help of the KGB. The presence of the KGB gave us perhaps the best Bond girl yet. Not because she's the best looking or most seductive, but because she is the most useful love interest yet for 007. Barbara Bach, who plays said love interest Major Anya, served as a great counterpart to James. Way more so than the charming yet out of place Ms. Goodnight of the previous entry. I appreciated that Anya didn't just succumb to Bond's charm right away. It felt a little more realistic this time.I also enjoyed the change up of having MI6 team up with KGB for the greater good. So often Bond works on his own and only his own in these films. Considering the bigger stakes that are at hand, it's only necessary 007 gets a little help. The Spy Who Loved Me is also famous for having one of the most iconic Bond villains of all time. Stromberg was great as the big baddie, but he was far overshadowed by Richard Kiel's Jaws character. Sure, he is basically Michael Shannon meets the giant from Big Fish, and yes his scenes were very over-the-top and maybe even tonally off. But I had a ton of fun watching Bond and Anya try to take him down. Everything from the set design inside Stromberg's ship to the desert scenes filled with Lawrence of Arabia's music, this was Moore's best outing and better than most of Connery's entries. It took the typical Bond plot and brought terrific visuals, set designs, and one bada** Bond girl. The Spy Who Loved Me is one of the best films of all time. +Everything looks better +Set designs +Anya is actually capable of doing something +Jaws -Perhaps change up the villains motivations for once 8.0/10

  Roger Moores third Bond film took the series back to basics with less silly gadgets and its old plot about nuclear weapons, For most of the film it did feel like a remake of You Only Live Twice, I think what most people will remember from this film will be the intoduction of Jaws, The opening scene was very good and the stunt was brilliant, Unfortunately the film never does any better, The car/mini submarine was ok, The action was ok but never leaves its comfort zone, Overall an average Bond flick.

  Moore was never sympathizing, but The Spy Who Loved Me ranks as his best. The Bond elements that were meant to be memorable are memorable here: Barbara Bach as the Bond girl special agent XXX, the opening sequence featuring old-school-special-effects snow skiing with a culminating parachute free fall showing the British flag, the opening credits sequence and the humorously sexualized final shot, and naturally, Jaws, the monster whose scary presence was somehow affected by the massive suspension of disbelief his superhuman strength required from me. Great shooting locations and well orchestrated action compensate some minor issues throughout. 76/100
