Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Roger Moore was introduced as James Bond in this 1973 action movie featuring secret agent 007. More self-consciously suave and formal than predecessor Sean Connery, he immediately reestablished Bond as an uncomplicated and wooden fellow for the feel-good '70s. This film also marks a deviation from the more character-driven stories of the Connery years, a deliberate shift to plastic action (multiple chases, bravura stunts) that made the franchise more of a comic book or machine. If that's not depressing enough, there's even a good British director on board, Guy Hamilton (Force 10 from Navarone). The story finds Bond taking on an international drug dealer (Yaphet Kotto), and while that may be superficially relevant, it isn't exactly the same as fighting supervillains on the order of Goldfinger. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Live and Let Die
This 007 movie is a really good Roger Moore as James Bond movie. It also has an awesome soundtrack. Roger Moore is great as Bond. If you like 007, you'll enjoy this one!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Roger Moore's Debut As 007 Isn't Top-Notch But This Is Worth Watching for All Hardcore Bond Fans.
Roger Moore made his cinematic debut as Ian Fleming's James Bond, Agent 007, in director Guy Hamilton's "Live and Let Die," the eighth official entry in the Albert R. Broccoli & Harry Saltzman franchise for United Artists. Yaphet Kotto, Jane Seymour, David Hedison, and Geoffrey Holder co-starred with Moore in this above-average outing. Chiefly, the sudden rage in movies about African-American heroes prompted Broccoli & Saltzman to exploit the black angle to market the film's appeal across cultures. Moore ranks "Live and Let Die" as his second favorite 007 escapade after Lewis Gilbert's "The Spy Who Loved Me." In my opinion, however, "Live and Let Die" qualifies as above average as a movie, but least impressive as a Bond movie, edged out the ninth Bond opus, Guy Hamilton's "The Man with ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - 3 stars out of 4
The Bottom Line:

An interesting combination of blaxploitation and James Bond, Live and Let Die suffers from the exceptionally annoying character of JW Pepper and a seemingly-interminable car chase, but otherwise offers a lot of enjoyable situations and villains; not a great Bond, but not one of the worst either.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "No sense going off half cocked."
Roger Moore's maiden voyage as James Bond -- and the third different actor in the role in three consequetive films -- is actually a fairly entertaining movie with the usual set pieces, babes, and Moore's laid back performance. Tom Mankowicz (who wrote for both Connery and Moore) had the best observation. In the scene where Moore enters the Fillet of Soul in Harlem, if you have Connery you know there is going to be a fight. Jane Seymour's big break, Yaphet Koto as Kananga/Mr. Big, Julius Harris as his henchman "T" and David Hedison in his first outing as Bond's CIA buddy Felix Leiter. The first 007 since DR. NO not to be scored by John Barry, the music is courtesy of Sir George Martin (who produced the Beatles records) with a title song (and an energetic one at that) by Paul McCartney and Wings. ...
