Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
After a ship sunk off the coast of Albania, the world's superpowers begin a feverish search for its valuable lost cargo: the powerful ATAC system, which will give its bearer unlimited control over Polaris nuclear submarines. As Bond joins the search, he suspects the suave Kristatos (Julian Glover) of seizing the device. The competition between nations grows more deadly by the moment, but Bond finds an ally in the beautiful Melina Havelock (Caroline Bouquet), who blames Kristatos for the death of her parents. The non-stop action includes automobile chases, thrilling underwater battles, and even a breathtaking tour over razor-sharp coral reefs. But all of this is merely a prelude to 007's cliffhanging assault of a magnificent mountaintop fortress. -- Robert Lynch

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Review of "For Your Eyes Only" Blu-Ray DVD
Excellent quality for the price paid (it was a used DVD), picture and audio were terrific. Story-line was typical James Bond, lots of action, in this case, mostly underwater. It was a bit dated, but the person I purchased this movie for absolutely loves James Bond films, and requested it on his Amazon gift list. We tried it out on our new Blu-Ray player, and it played perfectly! I am very satisfied with it.



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

One of the leaner, meaner Bonds, For Your Eyes Only briefly took the series back from the preposterous Moonraker to its more hard-edged roots; though this was to be only a brief respite before Octopussy returned the series to ridiculousness, it's still a worthy spy thriller.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Problem with For Your Eyes Only Blu-Ray DVD - won't play
DISC won't play at all? I've bought six, and none work on my Sony, Samsung or LG players - but all the other James Bond titles work. Apparently more than 70% of customers cannot play this DVD Blu-Ray. Read on.

For many but apparently not all, the problems can be fixed by doing a firmware update on one's Blu-ray player. Unfortunately, Fox has not exactly been helpful or, publicly at least, on top of this problem; to date they've made no official statement and are steering angry customers toward hardware manufacturers.

Reportedly the disc is encoded with a corrupt Java file; for this reason, and because so many consumers are running into trouble getting this title to play at all - and the fact that Fox has yet to announce a recall - I can't recommend it, at least ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Solid, But Didn't Live Up to the Hype
I just watched this movie for the first time and didn't see the Moore films as they came out, so my opinion isn't colored by nostalgia or affection for Roger Moore. In fact, I had only started watching the classic Bond films a few years ago.

I've always been a bit lukewarm to Moore's portrayal of 007 as he seemed a bit overly formal and stiff when compared to the graceful yet rugged qualities of Sean Connery and more recently, Daniel Craig. However, most of the reviews from Bond fans I've read seemed to indicate that this film and the Spy Who Loved Me were the two best Moore films; with people citing FYEO as having the "back to basics" approach to the franchise with Ian Fleming style espionage at the forefront.

While it compares favorably to the rest of the Moore films, ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - For Your Eyes Only
"For Your Eyes Only" marks James Bond's return to down-to-earth espionage after comic book adventures "The Spy Who Loved Me" and "Moonraker". But I must say I find those more entertaining. "For Your Eyes Only" has some very good action scenes, most notably a long car chase, but the story feels like a rather uninspired rehash of "Thunderball" and the villain is forgettable as are the Bond girls (although Lynn Holly Johnson may be remembered for being annoying).

Some think it's Moore's best Bond movie, but in my opinion, "For Your Eyes Only" is one of the weakest Bond movies.
