Movie Review. Man with the Golden Gun. 1974 Bond Movie.

So boring I feel insulted. Not even Saruman could save this movie.

Sometimes the only reason to pay some attention to these movies is to see what was the fad at the time, in that movie it was king fu, and the gadgets, which at that time would have been really whiz bang and ahead of their time.

lol, in Live and Let Die 1973, bond had a digital watch, it had a red LED display , a few years before the general public had even heard of digital watches

2 hobbits because fiji is pretty

The Hamilton Pulsar P2 2900. Very cool watch but also unusual, in that, Bond traditionally wears Omega or Rolex.

The old bond movies mostly suck. And that's ignoring the really awful stuff in them like the yellow face in Dr. No or the sexual assault in.. Well a lot of them.

I enjoy the Timothy Dalton ones though.
