Moonraker (2012 Version)
Where all other Bonds end, this one begins…
When a U.S. space shuttle is stolen in a midair abduction, only Bond can find
the evil genius responsible. The clues point to billionaire Hugo Drax (Michael
Lonsdale), who has devised a scheme to destroy all human life on earth!
As Bond races against time to stop Drax's evil plot, he joins forces with
Dr. Holly Goodhead (Lois Chiles), a NASA scientist who is as beautiful as she is
brilliant. And 007 needs all the help he can get, for Drax's henchman is none
other than Bond's old nemesis Jaws (Richard Kiel), the indestructible
steel-toothed giant.
Their adventure leads all the way to a gigantic orbiting space station, where
the stage is set for an epic battle for the fate of all mankind.
Critic Reviews:
- " Frequently entertaining and grandiloquent in equal measure,
Moonraker's overblown excess is a total joy. " – Jake
Tropila
- " Upon reflection, I think I like it, purely as a film judged on its
own merits, rather than judging it with the expectation of what film series its
in. " – David Hogan
- " The predictability of Moonraker is part of the pleasure. Like most
Bond adventures, Moonraker is so overstated that it is camp, and so preposterous
that it's fun. " – Donna Chernin
