MOONRAKER


STARRING: Roger Moore, Lois Chiles, Michael Lonsdale, Richard Kiel, Corinne Clery, Bernard Lee, Geoffrey Keen, Desmond Llewelyn, Lois Maxwell

1979, 126 Minutes, Directed by: Lewis Gilbert


Description: This was the first James Bond adventure produced after the success of Star Wars. This time Bond (once again played by Roger Moore) is up against a criminal industrialist named Drax (Michel Lonsdale) who wants to control the world from his orbiting space station. In keeping with his well-groomed style, Bond thwarts this maniacal Neo-Hitler's scheme with the help of a beautiful, sleek-figured scientist (played by Lois Chiles). Amazon.com

James Bond goes to space (so soon after the success of Star Wars? Mmm . . .) in pursuit of a galactic madman/bad guy.

Typical Bond stuff and if you think that Roger Moore was the best Bond of them all then you will like this movie - at least he wasn't the politically correct Bond played by Pierce Brosnan . . .
