Considering Bond gets disguised as an ape, a crocodile and a clown, the film has a lot more to be embarrassed about than its title.October 06, 2015
[Director John Glen] keeps the excitement level high for an hour or so, then lets the show slip into the doldrums.October 13, 2008
Film's high points are the spectaccular aerial stuntwork marking both the pre-credits teaser and extremely dangerous-looking climax.October 06, 2015
While this film is not up to the level of Goldfinger or Live and Let Die, it is still first-class escapist entertainment.January 26, 2006
The action sequences are tighter, the visual gags more inventive, and if the plot is no great shakes, the whole thing is served up with a decent approximation to the old panache.October 13, 2008
Glen's willingness to give the action sequences a certain weight and seriousness produces some genuinely exciting moments, yet his work is everywhere undermined by the flatness of the characterizations and the uncertain architecture of the plot.August 30, 2004
Makes no pretense of being based on anything except the Ian Fleming character and the high good humor and wit of the film makers.October 13, 2008
Bond had degenerated into a male model, and something of a genial anachronism.October 06, 2015
This was the 13th Bond movie and it's possibly the most frivolous in the series to date (it's certainly the most careless).May 05, 2014
More sexual innuendo than usual in provocatively named film.October 06, 2015
It's a pleasure to report that the James Bond company is confidently back on the beam.October 06, 2015
A solid action movie without the variety show camp of Moonraker, Octopussy (shock, horror) may well the best of the Moores.
