The best Bond film, if you ask me. 1977. Director: Lewis Gilbert.
Bond (Roger Moore) opens the film with a great ski chase in the Alps. He kills one of the bad guys chasing him. What he doesn't know is that the man he just killed was a KGB agent, romantically involved with the top agent Anya Amasova, called Triple X (Barbara Bach).
Bond and Anya meet later, but she doesn't know that Bond killed the man she loved. The both of them are chasing a micro film, very precious to the MI6 and KGB. The film lead them to Karl Stromberg (Curt Jurgens), a powerful man with the sea as his interest.
They meet the dangerous and steel-toothed Jaws (Richard Kiel) who isn't so very easy to beat. Stromberg is planning something big. Bond and Anya pretend to be a married couple, interested in the sea to try to find out what Stromberg is up to.
They learns about Stromberg's mysterious new supertanker called the Liparus. But when they leave, they don't know that Stromberg knows that they were lying. He send Jaws, some henchmen and the gorgeous but evil Naomi (Caroline Munro) to kill Bond and Anya.
Anya then find out that Bond killed her man, and she promises to kill Bond when the mission is over. They go with a submarine and are trapped by the Liparus which "swallows" the submarine. Inside the huge ship, they try to stop Stromberg from using his two atomic bombs which he has stolen to create a world where everyone has to live underwater. A mad man.
This is the best Bond film, if you would ask me. It has humour, lots and lots of good action, a plot, exotic locations and Bond's new car is pretty cool. The Lotus Esprit, also called "Wet Nellie". I like the "Atlantis", Strombergs place under water.
